"Ben Saputelli is great with the whole spectrum of estate landscape. which includes fruit trees, terraces, rock terraces, varied landscapes that suit a slanting hillside. He has also built a deck for me and done simple plumbing, painting and superb window washing. The reason why it is worth someone like him, I live in the mountains in Big Sur and he is capable of doing everything that is needed, and he does it on his own and he notices things like the drains have leaves in them & gets it done and my home is maintenance free. When he does bring people to help they are all honest and high quality and I have no hesitation about them tending my home."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

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.

No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.

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.

Yes, modular homes offer a wide range of customization options for layout, finishes, and features.

Custom homes can take an average of 18 months to build, mainly due to the lengthy design process, and most projects take somewhere between 12 and 24 months. When you work with the right custom home builders near you, they can help you map the road ahead and understand what can speed up or delay the timeline. Choosing locally available materials, for example, can speed things up without losing that customized touch.
