"We needed a new kitchen, since ours was seriously out dated. We have some ideas of what we wanted, but was hoping for some professional input. We hired Eli with Cal Green to do the job and had hoped we made the right decision. In the end we did. Eli was very knowledgeable, patient, and caring. He made the process go very smoothly and handled all the permits and dealings with the city, which was a relief for us. He took our ideas and included some of his and the kitchen came out great we are very pleased with everything. I would recommend Eli for any work you're considering for your home. For our next project we will definitely be using Eli and Cal green remodeling. Thank you so much Eli for a wonderful experience."

"Our kitchen remodel with McCormick Home Builders went beyond our expectations. Leoni and her team took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. The open layout design changed the way we use the space, and it’s been perfect for family gatherings. They were prompt, courteous, and genuinely invested in making sure we were happy. Really impressed!"

"We had a fantastic experience working with GR Innovative Builders, Inc. on both our ADU construction and full home renovation. From start to finish, the team was professional, thoughtful, and incredibly easy to work with. A special shoutout to the foreman, Gustavo (“Gus”), who was there for us throughout the project. He was always responsive, patient with our many questions and requests, and—most importantly—he consistently followed through. That kind of reliability made a huge difference during a project of this size. GR is a family-run business, led by owner Gilbert Rodriguez, whose experience and expertise really show. He’s clearly a veteran in the construction industry and brought a level of knowledge and problem-solving that went beyond what we expected. In addition to working closely with our architect, Gilbert contributed creative ideas and practical solutions whenever we ran into challenges—whether it was navigating permits, resolving design issues, or adapting to tricky con"

Its a pretty old building but Moses (contractor) was very detailed with everything, from the cracks behind the shelves to the kitchen sink! Im completely in love with my new kitchen! Now its time to have my house warming party. Definitely would recommend to any home owner looking to jazz up the space"

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

Handypeople usually don’t hold trade licenses, so they typically aren’t qualified to tackle projects involving installing or making alterations to plumbing or electrical lines. Below are some jobs that a handyperson usually won’t be able to complete:

  • Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom

  • Replacing plumbing pipes

  • Installing or repairing septic systems

  • Running new electrical wiring

  • Installing a subpanel

If you want to make your home eco-friendly, enjoy low maintenance, and love the fact that its looks will take people’s breath away (and not because they were trying to blow your house down), then a modern brick home is right for you. You can hire a mason to get the building process started for your brick home.

But if you’re not fond of the color and don’t want to deal with the process of repointing or other repairs, consider going with vinyl or wood. These materials offer a lower cost. While they tend to require more maintenance, they don’t cost nearly the same as exterior brick house repair.

How long it takes to build a log cabin depends on a variety of factors, including its size and design, and whether or not you have to clear the land. Construction can take a few weeks for a prefab log cabin on an established site, but up to eight or nine months for a custom cabin on undeveloped land. In comparison, the timeline to build a house is typically four to 12 months.

How long it takes to build a custom home or rebuild a home after a disaster varies depending on many factors, but averages between seven and 14 months. Smaller homes or homes that don’t need a re-poured foundation may take less time to build than larger homes or homes without an existing foundation. Material availability, contractor schedules, and permit and inspection timelines can all affect how long your house takes to build.

Craftsman-style homes are predominantly found in the Western United States, specifically in Southern California, where the style originated. Since the climate was mild and there was access to plenty of natural resources, Southern California became a hub for this style at its inception. That being said, if you consult with an architect near you, you can have a Craftsman-style home anywhere.
