"Pristine Construction is a class act!! We gutted and completely renovated two bathrooms, and had wood floors installed throughout our home. As part owner and designer, Nathan comes to discuss your goals and holds your hand through the whole planning process if you want. Mike, also part owner of Pristine, is on the job everyday making sure everything looks perfect. Their crew is top notch skilled. Attention to detail is a hallmark of Pristine's crew as well as regarding Mike's and Nathan's expertise. Cooperation and responsiveness from our first meeting and initial plans, throughout construction, and when needing changes makes working with Pristine very easy. Pristine's positive approach in pleasing its customers and offering overall and detailed suggestions makes this company especially great. The crew was here promptly everyday, so unlike the horror stories one hears. Scheduling is well planned and efficient. In addition to Mike, Nathan and the crew, Pristine's friendly and professional office manager, Emma, provided almost daily communication regarding work scheduling and updates. I got their name from YELP and Angie's List and agree completely with all the positive comments. We highly recommend Pristine Construction for your next job with a professional, reliable and friendly residential construction company."

"I am beyond impressed with the service from So Cal Builders & Design Inc. They listened to my needs, offered creative design solutions, and executed the project flawlessly. Their team is skilled, respectful, and truly cares about customer satisfaction."
Completely renovating both the guest and master bathrooms. In the master bathroom, we're installing a spacious walk-in shower featuring dual black-finished shower heads, elegant floating benches, and marble wall tiles. Meanwhile, the guest bathroom will have a sleek built-in tub and stylish hexagon tiles.
This project involved adding a new master bathroom to the existing house. The shower features sleek white subway tiles complemented by striking black fixtures and shower door hardware. The bathroom floor is adorned with elegant white marble tiles, providing a seamless and luxurious finish. A white shaker vanity topped with a white marble countertop completes the space, creating a clean and sophisticated look.

"Great service! Quality of work was amazing! Jose was a pleasure to work with. He was easy to contact during the process and was very responsive. We decided to change a few design elements here and there and Jose was very accommodating. My wife and I love the new addition (2nd livingroom) to our home. We highly recommend West Side Builder to others looking for remodeling work and look forward to hiring them again for our future projects."

"I found them to be very good at communicating. They were on time, and even early, for their performance and arrival at the job site at my home. They were very cordial to talk to and communicate with, as well as very thorough and knowledgeable about what they were doing. It was very pleasant and trustworthy to have them in and around my home. They were very personable to deal with, from the owner of the company all the way down to his workmen. They were friendly, communicated very well and pleasantly. I would not hesitate to recommend them or hire them again."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

Builder-grade is one of two types of stock cabinets, whereas semi-custom designs allow homeowners some control over the color, finish, or hardware on their cabinets. Stock cabinets are sold in construction-grade and builder-grade designs. Construction-grade cabinets are usually made from inexpensive medium-density fiberboard, which is prone to moisture damage, whereas builder-grade models are a step up with higher-quality materials. Construction-grade designs are the most common type of cabinets in America.

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.

There are energy-efficient options when building a cottage. Select green building materials, high-performance insulation, and energy-efficient windows when designing your cottage. Options such as solar panels, efficient HVAC systems, and LED lighting can lower your utility bills and reduce your environmental impact. Many builders offer energy-efficient upgrades as part of the design process.

Shipping container homes last at least 25 years on average, but they can last even longer with proper maintenance. Since shipping containers are made from metal, they’re quite vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This issue is exacerbated in coastal areas or areas with a lot of precipitation. To extend the life span of your container home, install siding that protects the exterior.
