"My mom loves greenery, so I decided to get some landscaping done outside her house. I called their professionals to inspect the area and suggest designs accordingly. Their team gave me such beautiful ideas entirely within my budget. My mom got super happy to see the entire landscaping done. It has become her favorite part of the house. I do not have the right words to thank you guys enough and suggest them to all."

"Max and his team did a wonderful job rebuilding our porch. He guided us through the process of selecting materials and design. The work team left everything tidy during the project and did not make much noise considering the work which was done. Max responded quickly to our questions throughout the process and was a real pleasure to work with. We have received many compliments on the outcome of the project. The porch looks great and really adds to the appeal of the house."

"Great! Bill was super professional, detail oriented, and extremely responsive to our needs. He checked for our satisfaction and approval at every step of the process. He and his crew were completely responsible with being in our home when no one was here. They cleaned up after themselves each day. Bill went above and beyond by even installing the fixtures for us so we didn’t need to have the plumber back. The job required serious attention to detail (unforgiving subway tile in a 1926 bathroom) and boy is it precise. It was a small job, but he didn’t treat it like one. We’d hire Hilltop again in a heartbeat."

"Malik at Al-Arsh Construction runs a very professional standard. His contracts are accurate, his prices are fair, and his ability to make the scope of the job efficient and cost saving were well communicated. I have utilized him twice for two major projects on my 150 year old home. You open up a wall and discover ten more repairs. But Malik was accurate in his estimates, and any change of orders were for additional work that I requested as I saw the project develop. His suggestions were based on common sense, and I was always comfortable going forward with any change of orders. Malik scheduled the work and came every day, on time and with the same skilled workers. He was on site often, and managed the work and workers' time very efficiently. The projects were done to perfection and detail and to contract. I like contracts. Malik was also very reasonable and was negotiable to labor costs when I wished to purchase materials myself. Like when I wanted to use a certain wallboard and frame. He is very much a Contractors', Contractor. I come from a family of old Italian contractors and they would be proud that I hired Malik to do the work.

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Building a house without blueprints is not advised. It will prevent you from obtaining necessary building permits and meeting building codes and is likely to result in shoddy construction and unsafe living conditions. Detailed blueprints ensure that a house is built to exact specifications and is constructed safely and structurally stable.

Modular homes are a type of prefab home. Specifically, manufacturers first build modular homes in sections and then deliver them to the job site. The modules, or sections, are usually at least 70% finished before they arrive on your property.

In comparison, prefab homes arrive in panels or segments, and workers assemble them on-site. Generally speaking, modular homes tend to be more durable, and their consistent construction standards may mean you’ll have an easier time getting conventional home loans.

Handypeople usually don’t hold trade licenses, so they typically aren’t qualified to tackle projects involving installing or making alterations to plumbing or electrical lines. Below are some jobs that a handyperson usually won’t be able to complete:

  • Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom

  • Replacing plumbing pipes

  • Installing or repairing septic systems

  • Running new electrical wiring

  • Installing a subpanel

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.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.
