"Job was completed per request. After we pointed out our concerns, they worked with us to completion. It took slightly longer to complete, but it was well worth the wait. Many other contractors would probably walk and not address any concerns, but BeHome finished. I would strongly recommend BeHome to do your job. They are professional and friendly."

"Excellent workmanship and professionalism from Ohad (owner), Luis and David! Ohad is very thorough going over the details of the project, cost and time. Luis and David were on time, worked extremely hard and cleaned up the site at the end of every day. Luis would let me know immediately if there were any issues (a couple and very minor) and the quality of workmanship is amazing. I had all my cabinets, countertops, backsplash tiles and fixtures ordered and in stock (with guidance from Ohad) before work began and the entire process took two weeks!"

"If you’re thinking about getting a new roof, definitely go with Build Atlas. I’m in my mid-20s and had no idea where to even start, but a neighbor recommended them and I’m so glad that they did! The whole team was super friendly, down-to-earth, and made the entire process way less stressful than I imagined. They showed up when they said they would, kept everything clean, and finished faster than I expected. Plus, the roof looks fantastic — it’s like my house got a facelift! It’s rare to find a company that’s this easy to work with!"

"Michael and his team were incredibly professional. They remodeled two of our bathrooms, including doubling the square footage in our master suite. Michael stood behind his work and insured. We were fully satisfied with the product. Throughout every stage of the process, he kept a clean and tidy, worksite, and was respectful of our families time and space. We’ve referred Michael to many of our friends because of the great work and professionalism he exuded on the job. We plan on using Michael and his team for our kitchen makeover later this year."

Subcontractors FAQs, answered by experts

An architect is usually involved in the process of determining the layout and structural features and requirements of the home itself, taking into account the local codes, climate, and materials needed to make the home structurally sound. Architects may communicate more with contractors and subcontractors throughout the building process. In comparison to architects, interior designers typically focus on the aesthetics of a home interior and possibly exterior, helping the homeowner decide on color schemes, textures, and materials to incorporate into the design. 

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.

Check reviews, compare quotes, and verify licensing. Ensure the builder has experience with modular construction.

Expect excavation below grade, creating a well for access, weatherproofing, and thorough inspections during setup.

It is technically possible to draw your own blueprints, but the process is extremely involved and really demands help from an expert. A professional architect has an understanding of design elements, interior design, the functionality of different rooms in a home, and how everything from furniture, outlets, and light switches should be laid out to serve you and your family best. Hiring an architect for blueprints can get expensive, but it’s the most responsible way to begin a new construction project. If you’re keen on DIYing, you could consider starting the process and then having a professional take over.
