".I contacted the company and waited 3 or 4 days for a call back and had to call back a second time to talk to someone. This was early Aug. of 2011. I had to call again for a follow up on the appt. to even look at the problem. The owner was 2 hrs late for the appt. He could not crawl on the roof because of leg problems but did not bring anyone with him that could get on the roof at that time to give us an idea of the problem. I waited 2 wks for a proposal to be sent by email of the problems and the cost. It was sent to the wrong email. We had a second look at the problem to go over the proposal and he was 1 hr. late for that appt. First of Sept. called the owner to see if work had been done and left a message. By Sept. 23rd still no word if work was done. Since this was our vacation home we had not been there to witness the work. Sept . 28th the company called me to see if we were going to pay our bill and I had to tell them I had not received a bill or even knew if the work was completed or not. They again had sent the invoice to the wrong email address. They called again on Oct. 3rd to make sure they would receive their payment. They were eager to call to see about payment but not to return my calls concerning the work itself. So now it is July of 2012 and we were at our beach house and saw where the roof was leaking again. I have called 4 times and left messages and no one has returned my call. My husband had to get on the roof and try to repair the leak himself. I would not recommend this company to anyone."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

On average, the cost of a home builder is about $150 per square foot, but that price can range from around $100 to $400 per square foot or more. That puts the typical price range of a standard, 2,000-square-foot house between $200,000 and $800,000. Some factors that affect the price of hiring a home builder include the following:

  • Location of your home and the living cost in the area

  • Type of foundation and framing you choose

  • Quality of the building materials

  • Footprint and layout of the house

  • Number of stories

  • Builder’s experience

Remodeling a house is often less expensive than building a new house. You can expect to pay an average of $100 per square foot when you are remodeling. The cost to build a house averages about $150 per square foot. When remodeling, though, some rooms cost more than $100 per square foot and some cost less. Use a home renovation cost estimator to accurately estimate your remodeling costs.

Building a house without blueprints is not advised. It will prevent you from obtaining necessary building permits and meeting building codes and is likely to result in shoddy construction and unsafe living conditions. Detailed blueprints ensure that a house is built to exact specifications and is constructed safely and structurally stable.

It pays to hire a project manager or general contractor when you have a large-scale project that will take over a week to complete, especially when it involves structural changes and multiple subcontractors. This includes hiring a general contractor to build a house, add an extension, or manage other projects that need a building permit.

In most cases, you should get an architect before you hire a builder. An architect will be the one to draw up formal plans for your project, including guidelines and even material lists for your builder to follow during construction. Many architects can even help you find builders, choose one for your project, and negotiate prices. Some are also willing to act as project managers throughout the process, working closely with a builder from start to finish.
