"I hired Adam and his team to frame and install my new kitchen including framing out a new pantry in a very difficult space as well as install a slider and reconfigure some walls. I am so pleased with the result. His attention to detail and work ethic are a rare find. I would recommend anyone needing any carpentry, framing, windows and doors work to contact him, you will not be disappointed."

"An amazing experience! I was constantly involved with the decisions being made and was always comfortable with the company itself. I was continuously updated on due dates, payments needed and actuality of each situation. Amazing communication between each and every contractor. I loved how my house looked by the end of it and would highly recommend Strategic Operational to anyone!"

"Dameon did a great job! He stripped the wallpaper of our powder room and repainted it. Installed a new sink and it’s faucet and installed a new toilet. Everything done professionally and with great quality. Called afterwards a few times to make sure everything was satisfactory."

"We hired H&M for a complete home remodel. Helio and his foreman were amongst the best I’ve dealt with. Professionalism and dependably were certainly nothing I had to worry about. He was responsive, patient, reliable and trustworthy. He took the time to hear my concerns throughout the entire project and never once wavered. Exceptional people !!!!!"

"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."

"We interviewed four companies for our project. Hilltop Remodeling wasn't the most expensive or the least expensive. Bill, the owner, is very personable and we liked him right off. He and his crew are very professional and completed the job in a timely manner. They removed a tub in our sons' bathroom. They expanded, built, plumbed, and tiled a new shower stall. Hilltop also re-grouted our tile and painted the bathroom and our son's bedroom. We are very happy with the results and would rehire Hilltop Remodeling again."

"My wife and I DO NOT use anyone who is not on Angie's List so we understand the importance of having accurate, fair reviews. We found Cary on Angie's List with overall great feedback on jobs he had done so we called him in for an estimate. Despite being very busy, he made the time to come over on a Saturday morning. He had previously dropped by and assessed the damage from the outside but needed to see it from the inside to ensure he could judge it accurately. After 15 minutes, our fears were realized and he said he would need to remove the cedar impression siding and remove the roof and replace it with a different system because the pitch wasn't steep enough. 
Within 48 hours, he provided a quote for his crew to come out and get the work done in a single day which was completely reasonable. He completed the work (guaranteed) as promised and left the site immaculate. He took pictures of the issue, of job progress and of the completed job. He mentioned he went around and filled some other issues he noticed while he was waiting for his crew to wrap up, no charge at all. He then discounted the quoted, agreed price 5% for angie's list deal I wasn't even aware of. Have you ever heard of a contractor accept less than an agreed price? Me neither.
Angie's List is a great resource for people to share experiences. I think the contractors who are honest and reasonable should be applauded too. We have been on the receiving end of some really lousy service so this was a new experience having someone do what they promised to do. Cary and his crew are the best in Monmouth County. We already have him pricing out finishing a storage space and will use him to build our deck in the spring. I cannot recommend Cary enough and you can reach me through Cary if you'd like to see his work firsthand.

"We hired Valeria and Ed to complete a full renovation of our historic brownstone in Manhattan. They provided us a detailed, incredibly accurate and competitive quote for completing the renovation, regarding both budget and timeline, and stayed entirely within the budget and timeline projected. They were also able to seamlessly pivot and adapt when we made several drastic scope and design alterations during construction. Even considering these changes, Valeria and Ed stayed within the projected timeline for completion of our project. Importantly, they did not juggle our renovation with other concurrent projects, but rather focused entirely on our renovation in order to get the job done well and within the projected timeline. The renovation that Ed and Valeria did on our brownstone has stood the test of time. We have been living in it for years, and have had zero issues or causes for concern. This includes with respect to new air conditioning units, a washer and dryer, a new powder room, a fully renovated kitchen and its appliances, and other major plumbing and electrical work, in addition to aesthetic details like painting, plaster repair and more. When we have needed to follow up with Valeria and Ed, they have always been responsive and have stood by their work. Ed was a masterful carpenter and very thoughtful in working around the historic details of our property. He was also very respectful about protecting and not damaging the floors and other aspects of the home during construction. He and Valeria are kind and thoughtful people, and incredibly responsive to emails, calls and inquires. They provided us with weekly updates of the renovation that included pictures and details of the work being completed. They also connected us with their contacts and suppliers for hardware and materials in the industry, and generously extended us some of their benefits as contractors when working directly with suppliers. Overall, we fully recommend using Ed and Valeria for your home improvement needs, and we will be using them again for future projects."

"We hired and worked with Rocco on two simultaneous bathroom renovations on the second floor of our house. (We were responsible for purchasing most materials, and Rocco and his team then worked with them.) While we did not vary the footprint, we did have them lower a few walls and replace them with glass in order to "open up" two rather claustrophobic shower stalls. We also installed new lighting and ventilation, along with replacing all of the existing fixtures. Working with Rocco and his son, Rocco Jr, was a lovely experience from start to finish. Rocco, Rocco Jr, and all of their subcontractors are exceedingly polite and professional and highly skilled. The tile work and custom glass for the showers were precise; the plumbing and electrical functions very well. The whole thing took about 8 weeks from start to finish, and we are very pleased with the results. Love our new bathrooms, and would not hesitate to use Rocco & team again! [Note: pictures were taken before glass was in, but give you a good idea of the look/craftsmanship.]"

Home Building questions, answered by experts

A carriage house is a freestanding building, while a townhouse is connected to other units. A townhouse is a full single-family home and typically shares a parcel of land with other connected homes. A carriage house is rarely used as the sole single-family home on a property and is most often an additional building sharing property with a traditional single-family home. 

Yes, professionals offer mantel and surround customization for aesthetic appeal.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

Modular homes last an average of between 50 and 75 years, and high-quality modular homes can last for 100 years with proper maintenance. For comparison, a standard home lasts 50 to 100 years and can push to 150 or longer with good maintenance. Modular homes provide better long-term value in that they are significantly more affordable and can last almost as long, but some buyers are wary of modular home longevity, so the actual value if you sell could be lower.

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.
