"Set up an appointment for them to come out and give us an estimate. The day before, they called with a reminder. The day of they called prior to arriving to advise us what time they would be there. Their rep was very professional, friendly, and courteous. I would have hired them but because we were sharing the cost of the job with our next door neighbor, she decided she wanted to go with a company that repaired her daughter's fence."

"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!"

"Alex and crew removed and replaced 40 sheets of T1-11 4 inch on center 4 x 9 siding on our three story home built on an aggressive incline. Scaffold solution for the project was incredibly complicated. Alex handled like it was routine. Job completed in third of the time of all other bids. Results are first rate custom construction quality. This is due to fact that Alex and crew are a first rate custom construction team. All challenges met with an indelible can do approach. Others hem and haw, Alex gets complex projects done to spec, on time, on budget. Lyubik Construction is the best and has my highest recommendation."

"Mr Neill Dougherty is an excellent custom builder, designer, communicator, and always professional. His prices are more than fair, especially when we saw the finished room!! We were somewhat unsure of exactly how we wanted the room, so Mr Dougherty helped us by showing several options that would work for our Mother-in-law studio addition. The room is absolutely beautiful! I love the flooring and custom tile work Neill created for the kitchen and restroom. Neill kept us up with all stages of the project, and was very accommodating and polite about my changes and "ideas" along the way. He even had an fantastic designer help me with Interior decoration after the apartment was ready! There has not been any issue we had to call back about. We will hire Mr Dougherty for any future building or remodeling we need! We highly recommend him for any project or home build."

"Over the years I have worked with several contractors/builders and Marksman Builders has been the best. They delivered on every aspect of our complete older home remodel. Last summer we started with just ideas on a piece of paper and Emma and her team worked with the designer, engineer to retain the charm of our older home and give it an open modern look. The entire process from obtaining building permits to the final details were professionally completed within the estimated timeline and budget. As the project took shape we had several change orders that were seamlessly integrated into project. Friends, family, and other building professionals have commented on how “awesome” our new house looks. Marksman Builders is now building a very custom engineered carport and garage for us with the same professionalism and attention to every detail. I was not sure it could even be built given the terrain and larger granite boulders. They simply incorporated the boulders in the build."

"This was my first large-scale remodel, to my kitchen, and so I did not really know what to expect other than a basic idea of my vision. After interviewing with four other contractors I was happy to find Glad was able and willing to work with us and come up with a plan that would fit our budget. For example, the other guys all wanted to sell us custom cabinets where Glad recognized that pre-built cabinets would better serve our needs. Their staff were all professional and conscientious during the work and we love the end result! I would definitely recommend their company."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Local regulations dictate how big an ADU can be, and there may also be restrictions on the percentage of the main residence’s square footage an ADU can have. In most cases, an ADU must be smaller than the main residence, but check with your local building authority to confirm restrictions on ADU size.

The longest part of building a custom home is the design phase. It takes multiple professionals and a ton of work to bring your vision for your dream home to life while sticking to a homebuilding budget and also ensuring everything is built to code. Expect the design phase for a custom home build to take six months to a year.

Renovating or remodeling an existing structure is usually less expensive than the cost to build a new house. That’s because you can save on the costs of new building materials, laying a foundation, framing the entire building, and installing new materials and utilities throughout the house. However, if a home is in very poor condition or is incredibly old, you could spend more on upgrades and restoration compared to building from scratch.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

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.
