"We had a bedroom that was severely damaged by a water leak. After the remediating company took half of the room down to bare studs, we contacted DM Builders to put the room back into useable condition. Darren and has crew hung, taped, and textured new drywall on the walls and ceiling; rebuilt a closet and replaced the closet doors and door jambs; and completely repainted the entire room and ceiling. Darren was the ultimate professional. He stayed in touch with us throughout the entire project, kept us abreast of what was happening and the timing of the different phases, and personally inspected the job at each step. His crew was skilled, professional, worked quickly, neat, clean, quiet, and friendly. The end result is better than we had hoped and came in on time and exactly on budget. We plan to use DM Builders for additional projects at our home and give them our highest recommendation."

"Essential Living Construction (and specifically Oscar Barajas) did a great job helping me with my home remodel. The price was fair, the work was done quickly and the results were impressive. Cracked damaged ceiling drywall was replaced with new drywall throughout the entire house and it looks great. Oscar is a friendly, soft-spoken professional and I would absolutely work with him again."

"DH Construction did a complete remodel of our very small kitchen. It entailed demolishing cabinets and a partial demolishment of a load bearing wall. We added a kitchen island, redid our floors, added barn doors, added quartz counters, additional counters and cabinets. Dave worked with our budget and gave us great ideas which we did not even know were possible. He and his crew were very professional, considerate of our time, and always arrived on time. Dave gave us great advice, and made our ideas become a reality. I finally have my dream kitchen! We would definitely recommend him! We will be hiring him next year to add an outside kitchen to our back yard."

"Team was fabulous to work with, hands down. My vision was to add more living space without adding square footage. Expert Home Builders made it happen. Walls were moved, doors rearranged, pocket door installed, custom shelving, new kitchen with extra seating, and new bathrooms came to life. I felt I was part of the Expert team. My vision and their high standards created my perfect place."

"Excellent! Sarjeant Properties played a key role in enabling us to pull off an entire interior renovation in 10 days. Randy and Ty worked diligently to complete their items of work and stepped in to help make sure other contractors’ items were done on time. Furthermore their attention to detail was great. I highly recommend them."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

In most states, you can build an in-law suite on your property as long as you follow local building codes. However, it's important that you have enough space on your property to accommodate the new structure. A functional in-law suite in your backyard will require between 300 and 800 square feet of space.

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.

The average cost to renovate or remodel a home is $52,300, with most projects ranging from $19,500 to over $88,400. However, costs can vary significantly, from as low as $3,000 for a small project to $170,000 or more for a complete home remodel.

Several factors influence the total price, including:

  • Project Scope and Size: The extent of the renovations, whether it's a single room or the entire house.

  • Location: Geographic location affects labor and material costs.

  • Materials: The quality of materials chosen.

  • Room Type: Kitchen remodels ($14,500 - $70,000+) are generally more expensive than bedroom remodels ($1,500 - $5,500).

  • Other Factors: The time of year, complexity of the work, and any additions or expansions.

On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $15 and $60 for standard projects and up to $150 for luxury renovations.

Examples of specific project costs include:

  • Basement remodel: ~$20,200

  • Garage remodel: ~$27,900

  • Loft conversion: ~$20,200

  • Disability accommodation remodel: ~$4,300

  • Major home repairs: ~$11,700

If you are financing the project, note that some loan programs, like the FHA 203(k), may require a minimum project cost (e.g., $5,000) and will necessitate a home appraisal and professional cost estimates. Using a home renovation cost estimator can also help you budget for your project.

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits.
