After visiting the Classy Closets showroom in Chandler, I was given a card to contact one of the designers, Cristin Young. I emailed her in the late afternoon, 4ish, with a brief statement and description of the drawers and shelves I wanted in that deep niche. Dimensions of the space were...

"I cannot say enough about Aaron Schwarder and Schwarder Construction. We bought a home that had not been updated since 1964. Plumbing included. Aarons crews redid both baths and the kitchen. Beautiful bright Carrera look tile, white counter tops, beadboard, wainscoting. New light and plumbing fixtures. Kitchen went from dark and cave like with fluorescent lights in plexiglass recessed ceiling thing, to raised ceiling, high end appliances, beadboard cabinets and an open to the dining room floor plan. Aaron was not satisfied with the cabinet surfaces and repainted them himself. All custom cabinets. Very important to me is the comfort level of having people working in my home. It can be awkward, to say the least. Aaron's guys are very respectful and always clean up at the end of the day, even if they are coming back in the morning. They were very careful not to let the animals escape. Recently I called the home depot pro desk with some questions about installing a new entry door and the first name they gave me was Schwarder Construction. I was raised to believe that a man's word is his worth. You can take Aaron at his word. 5 stars only because you cannot rate higher."

"My husband and I met with ACE Design and Drafting (ACE) in August 2023 to review the drawings we had prepared and conduct an interview regarding skills, experience, and process in preparing the plans. As a result of the interview, in August 2023 we entered into an agreement for ACE to prepare building ready plans for our project. The estimate to complete the plans was 3 months. Although our experience with ACE began as amiable, it slowly deteriorated to less than satisfactory. Our verbal phone communication and interaction with ACE soured, and we were no longer able to communicate/interact with ACE verbally over the phone, only by email. Unfortunately, communication with ACE through email did not improve. Our communication issues or lack of communication with and from ACE caused a considerable delay of the submittal of our plans to the County. They were not able to be submitted to the County for initial review until February 2024, nearly six (6) months after entering into the agreement with ACE. We experienced unfavorable interactions with ACE which are noted below. · ACE misplaced the drawings we provided. As we did not have a second copy of the drawings (our mistake), this delayed ACE in preparing the plans. We were in California, so it was necessary to travel to Lake Havasu City, Arizona and assist ACE in locating the drawings in the office. · The plans were submitted to Mohave County (County) for review and the County noted various corrections/redlines were required. ACE was contacted by letter which detailed the redlines needed for the house and shop. Per the County, ACE did not make all the required corrections/redlines (although our agreement states required corrections will be made when ordered by the County). The County representative was very helpful and was able to make the remaining required corrections/redlines as noted below. o House § Correction requested - Wall bracing for this structure does not meet minimum of code. Please revise. (Ref. IRC 2018 R602.10) · This was as a result of stucco vs metal siding. The correction from wording of stucco to metal siding was noted on the plans, however, the legend which showed wall board was being used was incorrect as was the use of the wall board legend icon (a 3 in a triangle) noted around the exterior of the structure. As our home would have metal siding, wall board is not required. However, sheathing (a 2 in a triangle) is required on the entire exterior of structure. The County made the correction by striking through the “wall board” legend icon and replacing in red ink the “sheathing” legend icon. o Shop § Correction requested -Header over garage door fails loading. Please revise. (Ref. IRC 2018 R301.1) · The plans show a correction of a “4x12 header”; however, in this situation a 6x12 header was required. The County made the correction by striking through “4x12 header” and replacing in red ink “6x12 header”."

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
The cost of home remodeling is $50,000 for the average homeowner. However, this cost can range anywhere from $3,000 for a small project to $170,000 for a whole home remodel. Factors like project size, location, and room type all affect your overall cost. For example, bedroom remodeling costs are one of the least expensive projects, costing about $1,500 to $5,500 per bedroom. However, a kitchen remodel has a significant cost range, totaling anywhere from $14,500 to over $70,000.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
Yes, most states require home remodeling contractors to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed home remodeling contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The best time of year to remodel your home is late winter and early spring when fewer homeowners are thinking about projects and pros are more available. Also consider the type of remodel you want and plan ahead as much as possible. For example, the summer is a great time of year to update your fireplace, but winter is a better option for fixing foundations and building room additions.
