"We hired McCormick Home Builders to remodel our living room, and we are beyond pleased with the result. The team was professional, worked efficiently, and Aris design ideas made a huge difference. The room feels so much brighter and more spacious. This was the best decision we made for our home, and we were already planning our next remodel with them."

"We hired GVR Construction for a major home remodeling project that included adding square footage to our home, and we truly couldn?t be happier with the experience. The construction was completed on time with no delays ? in fact, it moved faster than we expected. Everything was organized, efficient, and handled with great attention to detail from start to finish. What really sets Gilbert is his character. He is honest, respectful, and extremely professional. He?s easy to work with, communicates clearly, and has a calm, steady temperament that makes the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. You can tell he genuinely cares about doing things the right way. It?s been three years since construction was completed, and he still responds quickly whenever we have a question or need something addressed. His response time is excellent, and he sends his crew out right away to take care of any issues. That kind of long-term accountability is rare and speaks volumes about his commitment."

"We have been working on our kitchen remodeling project with Shay at Cal Green Remodeling this past month. They are a great company, who knows what they are doing. Shay was knowledgeable and had a lot of experience which is shown on the results and while at the process. The workers were very clean and respectful of our privacy and our home. The kitchen looks great, was done fast and we are very happy!"

"We did a full house remodel and addition with Sergiu and Annamaria at Best Construction. They are a wonderful team and the crew was great. They took our tiny 900 square foot house and reconfigured the walls on the interior and added 250 square feet with a new roof and new exterior. They changed our cramped space into a HOME! It was as if the flow of the house had changed from awkward cramped to what it was always meant to be. They best part was the use of space. We got to keep our big backyard while still feeling like we had loads new room. The whole process was actually pretty fast. We started our design with Annamaria and before we knew it we had plans and permits. I really appreciated having my own input and ideas taken into consideration by Annamarie. She understood my taste and helped me make decisions when I felt overwhelmed by the choices. I appreciated all the vendors and contacts she had for everything from tile, to windows, doors, etc. I never felt pressured to go out of my budget. Sergiu and the crew are great. They are approachable, professional, polite, hardworking, timely, and friendly. It was really great having most of the work done by the Best Construction crew. I had the same crew working on the project the entire time except for the occasional sub contractors that came though but they were managed well by Sergiu. Everyone I talk to is blown away at the integrity and timely fashion that this design and build firm had towards this project. I was warned things would go wrong but I have to say things went very smoothly and if we do it again it will be with Best Construction."

"Larissa is fantastic! Her designs are beautiful, and her service is great. She works hard to make sure that the customer is happy, her response time is excellent, and the work is timely too! I constantly hear that kitchen remodels run months over what was expected. Not the case here! So happy with our beautiful kitchen. And the built-ins in our dining area are gorgeous. Love!"

"We had a great experience working with CLAH on our bathroom remodel. The team was professional, responsive, and did a great job helping us through the design and construction process. They paid attention to the details, communicated with us throughout the project, and made sure the finished bathroom matched what we were looking for. The quality of the work came out very nice, and we appreciated having one team help coordinate everything from the design decisions to the actual construction. We would definitely recommend CLAH/Custom Home to anyone considering a bathroom remodel or other home renovation."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Building a new home can be more expensive than buying an existing one, depending on the housing market in your area. Many homeowners still find that building a new house is worth the investment as they can choose the exact layout they want, as well as to choose their own floors, wall coverings, appliances, and finishes. If you live close enough to the build site, you can also stop by to check on the builder’s progress, which can provide some peace of mind that the project is worth it.

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.

Construction typically takes 3-6 months, including site preparation and assembly.

Ranch and colonial-style homes are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average.

Modular homes are more affordable than stick-built homes if you keep quality and square footage equal. The cost to build a home averages $323,000, while average modular home prices sit at {AvgCost}. If you’re looking for custom or luxury options, a traditional custom home costs $825,000, while a high-end modular home costs $600,000, on average.
