This is a huge project. You would need a very strong grasp of HTML / CSS / JavaScript as well as a server side language like PHP and a database like MySQL / SQLite / PostgreSQL.
Unless you have strong skills in all those things, then you should just use Joomla or Drupal.
Why not use something that is free, thoroughly tested and stable?
I agree with Colin.
Without having the knowledge/experience it only makes sense to use an open source application.
I have built custom CMS’s, along with use applications like Joomla. I know Joomla can be complete overkill on a small scale site. I use WordPress as a CMS often to build small scale sites. The code is easy to modify if you need any customization, its much simpler than Joomla/Drupal, its thouroughly tested with a huge user community.
Creating a custom CMS has its place, but it so does using an off the shelf solution to build quickly and bug free.
A lot of people honestly use WordPress (free, open source, installable) as a CMS — many people run their whole websites using it…even if their site is not just a blog.

Making a website is really not that tough, and top of all, you can create a website or more website for free.
Building a website is a extremely individual skill and is different with each client.
It is more about revealing your business to new probable clients and generating new sales.
