"Bob Reicher came to my house,  took measurements and then went with me
to Loew's to choose the right door on a Saturday afternoon and he then
picked up the door  on Monday, November 11th, a holiday, and he and his
employee installed the sliding glass door all in one day.  He is exceptionally
accurate and neat in his work.
The building is 30 years old and I know it took my neighbor 2 days to install their door due to an improper fitting.; however Bob
had no problems fitting my door.  It fit perfectly the first time and they completed the job in less than 6 hours, because he took accurate measurements beforehand. He knew exactly what he was doing.
He had one worker with him and both were precise, polite, and professional.
Several years ago Mr. Reicher also put on my back deck.  And then too he took  accurate measurements and was the only contractor to submit a precise drawing to the Condo Assoicatiion and the Building Inspector. 
I would highly recommend Bob Reicher for any construction project he chooses.

"We just completed a project to gut and remodel our kitchen. I will (and already have) highly recommend him to any family or friend looking for a reliable and trustworthy contractor for any home improvement project. We did several projects over the years and have had some horrible experiences. They were so bad that we held off on redoing the kitchen until it was literally falling apart. I did a lot of research and met with several contractors before deciding on Ed. His price estimate was reasonable and right in the middle of the pack. He time estimate was 3 weeks and I was initially dubious that the project could be completed in that time frame. He actually completed the project in 2.5 weeks which exceeded my expectations. I believe a major reason is that Ed has excellent project management skills. He tasked us with homework before he would start the project. We finalized the cabinet selections, countertop, tile, flooring, appliances, etc. before a hammer was lifted. This ensured that there was no wait time once the project started. He would email us at the end of each day to tell us what was accomplished and what was the target for the following day. Outside of email communications he was also prompt in his replies to text messages and phone calls when I needed to talk to him. He and his crew came every weekday and were on time *every single day*. There was a day that was snowing. Ed pulled up about half an hour earlier than usual. He arrived earlier because he was afraid that the road conditions might make him late. It was a perfect example of his professionalism and commitment to his work. In addition to having a beautiful new kitchen, I feel fortunate to have finally found a contractor that I will continue to use for any future project. It seems he has a lot of repeat customers which is a testament to the quality of his work and trustworthiness as a contractor."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

It usually takes around four to six months to build and install a modular home, although your timeline could go up to around eight months if there are delays in the manufacturing or permitting process. Heavy site preparation and foundation pouring can extend that timeline if you need them, as can customizations you want for your modular home. Your modular home company should be able to provide an estimate for the construction timeline before you sign any contracts or agree to any work.

Historically, Tudor homes originally stemmed from the 15th and 16th centuries, while Victorians appeared during Queen Victoria's reign in the 19th century. The design and structural differences are significant as well. The many types of Victorian architecture—such as Italianate architecture—typically feature ornate trim, wood siding, wraparound porches, and tall towers on top, such as belvederes. On the other hand, Tudor-style homes feature white stucco exteriors with exposed wooden rafters marking the house frame both inside and out.

It is a good idea to check in with your local city and state regulations before committing to building a shipping container home no matter where you live. This concept is pretty new across the country, and many places won’t let you build one.

The International Code Council (ICC) offers guidelines for home builders on the safe use of ISO intermodal shipping containers repurposed as building components, which can be helpful to review when planning or designing a shipping container home.

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

Craftsman-style homes are predominantly found in the Western United States, specifically in Southern California, where the style originated. Since the climate was mild and there was access to plenty of natural resources, Southern California became a hub for this style at its inception. That being said, if you consult with an architect near you, you can have a Craftsman-style home anywhere.
