"Working with Helio is an incredible experience. He is always fair, honest and treats his customer with respect. Another thing I really like about him is his level of responsiveness, he will always return you call on the same day."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

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.

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.

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.

Shipping container homes last at least 25 years on average, but they can last even longer with proper maintenance. Since shipping containers are made from metal, they’re quite vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This issue is exacerbated in coastal areas or areas with a lot of precipitation. To extend the life span of your container home, install siding that protects the exterior.
