"The cleaners and builders did a fantastic job renovating the living room, kitchen, and bathroom. Everything was done so professionally. I thought this project would be a nightmare, but they were so attentive and responsive. I will definitely be using their services in the future for any work I need to be done around the house."

"In January, we quoted max with 2 other contractors. He did was not the cheapest nor most expensive, but had the best reviews and had the best insight. Phase 1 of the project was to renovate an original kitchen for a Colonial Split Ranch Home and replace a load bearing wall. Max was open to working with our supplied cabinets and counter top and appliances and tile. Not only was Max capable of doing the typical kitchen renovation but our architect unexpectedly recommended Max install a 1 ton load bearing beam across half the house to replace the load bearing wall and reinforce the post underneath in the 1st floor. Max and his team were able to take care of this more advanced work. We had some unexpected electrical work also, but Max and his electrician Isaac were able to take care of all our needs and work together efficiently. Phase 2 of the project was our full bathroom renovation adjoining the kitchen and update electrical, plumbing and crown molding. He was open to us picking out and providing fixtures like faucets, shower systems, and Max took care of everything else. Everything went as planned here and everyone was pleased with the results. Max was hands down the best contractor we have worked with. He and his team were efficient, professional, got the job done on time. His main strength was his great communication and willingness to make everything correct. He was willing to take calls out of business hours and even on weekends when we were in crunch time. With most renovations, unexpected things can come up, but he was willing to work and strategize with us to get a job done. An small example was when some of his painters had some issues paint matching, and the color did not turn out well. Max took care of this and corrected it at cost. I have no negatives for Max at all. I suppose the only thing I wish I could change was he wasn't as busy so he can start helping us with next project :)"

"Beautifully. Matthew was able to remove and rehang the older windows which now open and close in their tracks perfectly. It wasn't straightforward as the house has shifted some since they were installed but Matt was able to find solutions, rather than discarding the old windows and installing new. He was always on time and stayed within the agreed budget. I met him when he did a fabulous job on our neighbors' porch and front steps. HIghest possible recommendation! 5 Stars!"

"I think the experience was very positive, seamless, in fact.  I always deplore having to do work in my home.  Ronaldo and his team were very pleasant, neat and clean.  They were very trustworthy, as well, since I was not home when the work was being performed.  If there was something that I was not 100% satisfied with (I am extremely particular), Ronaldo was quick to have a discussion with me about it and execute my wishes.  I really was happy that the cost of some of the paint and materials was included in the overall price.  Most painters will often charge extra for these supplies.
I highly recommend ronaldo and would most definitely use him in the future.  Lorella, Ridgefield, CT

Home Building questions, answered by experts

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.

Buying a house is easier than building one from scratch. Buying an existing home is almost always faster, even if you need to make renovations once you move in. When you hire the right team to build a home, they will simplify the design and build phases so that there is little guesswork throughout the process, but building new construction will almost always take longer than buying an existing home.

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.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

One of the best ways to negotiate with a homebuilder is to forgo price reductions. Instead, negotiate over upgrades and incentives, as many builders are more willing to go down that road than to decrease their own fee. Even if they were willing to take a cut, a reputable homebuilder often knows their worth, so a willingness to negotiate could be a red flag. Beyond that, builders are typically willing to negotiate closing costs instead of offering a discount on the base price.
