Our building expertise includes not only remodeling of existing homes, but new custom home construction, multifamily housing, tenant improvements, commercial and industrial office buildings. Our professional staff has the experience necessary to give you the confidence to start your next project today.

"McGee construction recently insulated, dry walled, and added electrical outlets my garage. They were quick and efficient in completing the project. It was a pleasure working with Cade who coordinated everything and was very hands on making sure everything was to our liking. Cade was very hands on making sure things were kept at a certain standard. We got quotes from 5 other companies and McGee Construction was the company we ultimately decided to go with because they are very fairly priced and overall just had good vibes when talking with them. We definitely do not regret our choice and would recommend them for anyone looking to start a new project for their home."

"I really appreciate Arch. Leslie Anderson taking the time to analyze the work my internet provider was planning to do and for offering your insights—all without charging for the consult. It was very kind of you! Thankfully, a tech from the new provider came by today and confirmed that the wire can actually be installed internally, so no need to run it along the exterior walls or bury it in the stucco channel. I also understand now that nothing should be buried in the stucco channel. Thanks again for your time and expertise!"

Whether you're upgrading an existing structure or building from the ground up, Peter T. Erdelyi & Associates, Inc has the expertise to oversee your project through completion. We have designed more than 10,000 structures in the Los Angeles area over the past four decades; from apartment buildings to new single family homes to additions and remodels both for residential and commercial clients. Our team of professional engineers, drafters, expeditors and project staff will deliver plans that withstand the test of time.

"The work Erdelyi associates did is great, but communication and timeliness were lacking. I didn’t have a consistent point of contact throughout the project - it just seems my project was handed off from one person to the next with no continuity and I had to proactively reach out for updates."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Green homes are often more expensive to build, averaging around $200 per square foot compared to the $150 per square foot you’d spend to build a standard home. However, green homes can save you money on your utility bills by consuming less energy or creating energy using solar panels or wind turbines on-site. They’re more expensive to build, but they often end up costing less in the long run.

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.

Buying a house is easier than building one from scratch. Buying an existing home is almost always faster, even if you need to make renovations once you move in. When you hire the right team to build a home, they will simplify the design and build phases so that there is little guesswork throughout the process, but building new construction will almost always take longer than buying an existing home.

A construction-to-permanent loan is the most common type of mortgage used to finance a house teardown and rebuild. These loans include financing for construction costs and convert to a long-term mortgage once construction is complete. Check the terms of the loan closely before beginning work—there are often restrictions requiring you to use licensed contractors for all work.

Modular homes are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and faster to build than traditional homes. They also offer customizable designs.
