"Just had to drop a review for Result Construction after they wrapped up our kitchen extension. Honestly, I was dreading the disruption, but their team was so considerate and tidy. Every evening, the site was cleaned up, and they kept us updated with progress. The final reveal? My jaw dropped. It’s not just a kitchen; it’s the heart of our home now. Sacramento friends, if you’re thinking renovations, these are your go-to guys."

"We couldn?t be happier with our experience working with Trevor at Morgan Ridge Construction. Trevor built our pool house, which was completed in 2025, and the entire process, fro start to finish, wa outstanding. Trevor is incredibly professional, communicative, and detail-oriented. He always responded to emails and texts promptly and never once made us feel like our (many!) questions were a burden. He truly cares about doing things the right way and doesn?t rush through any part of the job. His attention to detail is exceptional?it honestly felt like he was building the project as if it were for his own home. He went above and beyond in every way: keeping the job site clean at all times, maintaining an organized workflow, and being very flexible in working around our schedule. That level of respect and consideration is rare and deeply appreciated. Not only is Trevor extremely skilled at what he does, but he was also a genuine pleasure to work with."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.

Yes, a home builder or contractor should have the proper licensing and insurance. Licensing requirements vary by state and municipality, but most states mandate that a builder holds at least a general contractor’s license. For specialized work such as plumbing, electrical, roofing, or sewage systems, individual licenses may be required, in which case the builder may subcontract the work. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to review your local guidelines and confirm a builder's credentials. As you browse professionals, you can also look for the “Angi Certified” badge. This indicates the business meets our certification standards, which include passing a criminal background check, holding applicable state and local licenses, and maintaining an average rating of 3.0 or better.

A contractor can install your shipping container home in as little as 90 days. This is notably quick compared to a traditional home build, which can take more than a year (providing there aren’t permitting or construction delays that make the wait even longer). For the quickest installation, choose a prefab container home.

In most cases, you should get an architect before you hire a builder. An architect will be the one to draw up formal plans for your project, including guidelines and even material lists for your builder to follow during construction. Many architects can even help you find builders, choose one for your project, and negotiate prices. Some are also willing to act as project managers throughout the process, working closely with a builder from start to finish.
