"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."

"Harrod Construction have simply been the best. They have been there at every step of our project with friendly service, expert advice and excellent communication. I can’t emphasis how important consistent and informed communication is when working on a project with a contractor. Any reasonable person who undertakes a construction project should understand there will be challenges to overcome during each stage of a build. Having excellent communication from your contractor makes all those moments easiesr to bear and leaves you with a positive feeling of encouragement. Harrod Construction understands how important a simple message, even if it’s only to touch base, is to their clients. Highly recommended!"

"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."

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.

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.

On average, the cost of a home builder is about $150 per square foot, but that price can range from around $100 to $400 per square foot or more. That puts the typical price range of a standard, 2,000-square-foot house between $200,000 and $800,000. Some factors that affect the price of hiring a home builder include the following:

  • Location of your home and the living cost in the area

  • Type of foundation and framing you choose

  • Quality of the building materials

  • Footprint and layout of the house

  • Number of stories

  • Builder’s experience

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.

How long it takes to build a log cabin depends on a variety of factors, including its size and design, and whether or not you have to clear the land. Construction can take a few weeks for a prefab log cabin on an established site, but up to eight or nine months for a custom cabin on undeveloped land. In comparison, the timeline to build a house is typically four to 12 months.
