"The contracted the work off to a third party. Jon took longer than expected. The windows was installed pretty good from the looks. Communication could have been better with knowing the job will take longer and what types of trims I wanted for the windows. As the contractor that was hired for this job by this company. Did a good job with putting up decent trim. As for the new windows they look great. I purchased the myself and hired sentri homes to install them. I will need to have a my siding on my house redone to be closer to the new windows so the gaps are not so obvious. That was not expected at first. But from old storm windows and not knowing how they were put in originally. There was some unknown things that was learned from the job being completed. I will have the siding of the house slightly done to match really good for what I wanted later on. My only concern is better communication with sentri homes. Overall they were great when I did talk to them."

"James (Historical Home Crafters) has built two houses for us (one in 1996 and one in 2019). We learned during the first construction project that James is professional, respectful, and takes pride in his work. Choosing him to build our new home was based on the experience we had the first time. His construction knowledge and experience combined with his integrity takes a lot of the stress out of building a new home. We highly recommend Historical Home Crafters."

"I called JD and he came over that afternoon and looked the projects
over. He called me back with the estimate within an hour. After I gave
him the go ahead and the agreed up front money he told me when he would
start. He started on time and did a very good job. There were a couple
of things that we had not specifically discussed, such as putting some
extra support under one end of the deck, which was needed,  that he did
without me asking and without charging extra.  I am very satisfied with
his work and am already lining up the next project for him.
   JD is a really nice guy and is easy to work with.

"As I am looking to put my house on the market soon, I had a few repairs I needed to get done. The exterior of my house was quite dirty and the driveway full of algae. I had a cracked window pane, a leaky sink pea trap, a leaky sink faucet, and a bathroom tub that LITERALLY required a wretch to turn it on and off. I found Halo Construction on Angies List and contacted Kristy via phone. James came out the next evening per my schedule to take a look. This was very important and I have a very busy schedule. After James got an idea of what I needed done, Kristy emailed me an estimate 3 days later. James was able to come out and get started two days after that. He arrived when he said he would and got working right away. James and his team worked VERY hard all day long and into the night. A 3 hour plumbing job turned into an 8 hour job after he ran into a bit of a snag with the shower faucet (see below). He finally finished at ~8pm! The house exterior looks almost brand new! (see pictures) There's a few things James did that other pressure washers don't. His team hand cleaned every window frame, they used a long handled brush to scrub the very top of my siding, and after pressure washing they hosed the house down to prevent streaking. It's this attention to detail that sets Halo Construction apart from the others. The sidewalk and driveway went from greyish green to nice and white (see pictures). They guys even went as far as pressure washing the curb in front of my house and cleaning the debris off my house. He did such a good job with the window pane that you can't even tell which one was replaced. The pea trap, which should have been a simple job, was complicated by the fact that my house is almost 50 years old with 50 year old fixtures...yet James's and his creativity figured out a solution. The sink works great now. Initially James was only going to replace the stem of the tub faucet, however like the 50 year old pea trap, the parts for this faucet were no longer available. So James replaced the entire bathtub faucet, shower head and spout. He did this with no extra labor costs and charged me the actual price of the parts. I was very pleased by both the quality of work, the price, as well as their flexibility with my schedule. If James and Kristy keep up the level of service they provided me, I know they will very successful in the future. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Halo Construction to my friends and family."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

It’s typically more cost-effective to move a building along with its accessories than to demolish and rebuild it from scratch. However, that’s only if you can move the accessories without damaging them. However, if you plan to demolish the accessories anyway, it is advisable to do so before the move to save costs.

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits. 

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.

In most states, you can build an in-law suite on your property as long as you follow local building codes. However, it's important that you have enough space on your property to accommodate the new structure. A functional in-law suite in your backyard will require between 300 and 800 square feet of space.
