"I decided to upgrade several elements of my home and hired Merryfield. They were fabulous. Lew (co-owner) helped me to figure out what I needed, but at the same time, respected my simpler taste and budget. The work crew was terrific. I work from home 3 days a week and I was totally comfortable while they were there and equally comfortable when I wasn't there. I have a snarky dog whom the crew completely charmed. I can't say enough about the friendliness, cleanliness and politeness of the workers. I found the folks at Merryfield to be good communicators, timely and flexible. They stayed very much within my budget. I couldn't be happier with the outcome!"

"Trying to get the scheduling of the work was not easy due to the company being over booked. I left several messages and my phone call was never returned. I finally was able to have an appointment scheduled and the gentleman was late because he was lost (which is understandable) but no one called me to advise me of the mishap or to let me know he would be late. Once we decided on what was going to be done, he spent the day taking the tiles up. We had to reschedule him to come out to put the tiles down. In speaking with his "boss", he was telling me the extra charges that would take place and explained to me that most customers purchase their own tile, even though the deal includes the tile. He informed me that they don't make any money off these big deals and that it's just their way of getting their foot in the door, which I think was unprofessional. I took the following Monday off for the work to be done and two guys show up with no material or supplies but inform me that the guy that was suppose to do the work called off for the day. I continously called the 302 # listed on this site to no avail. The guys had to leave because they had no tile and wasn't aware that there was a radiator, when the gentleman who was there should have noted that. I was called by another gentleman who was very nice and very professional and he asked me to have the guys come back the next day and they would waive my additional fees. I had an appointment the following morning but was home by noon. The men arrived at noon and finished the job that day. The tile looks nice and they were very nice.  They took measurements to replace my tile in my kitchen and to put molding in my living and dining room and never sent me an estimate. They did leave footprints throughout my living room and steps...but overall I am pleased with the tile.

"Jim and his guys were absolutely great to work with...  I've never had the privilege of working with a contractor that was so punctual and knowledgeable before.
Throughout the entire project, Jim and his crew (2-5 guys depending on what was being done on a specific day) were punctual... showing up at 7AM every day.  They always responded to phones calls, texts and emails without fail.  Saying these guys are good communicators is an understatement and I am glad that I have found "my contractor."
They started with the messiest project first, of course... the ceiling. Scraping, sanding, skimming multiple times to bring my 80s ceiling into the current century.  The texture had been painted over so many times in the past but this group made quick work of it.  They covered everything in plastic to protect furniture that I couldn't remove in advance and cleaned up after themselves at the end of each day.  In the first couple of days they focused on getting as much done to the ceiling as possible before hitting a point where they just had to wait for things to dry.
Once the ceiling dry time gate was gone, they really began spending full days at my home to ensure they stuck to their projected schedule (and to help ensure I had my home available for some pre-planned social events).
They pulled up carpet, began laying flooring, preparing for the walls to be painted and baseboard to be replaced.  Their attention to detail was great... picking up on things that needed to be done that my wife and I hadn't necessarily noticed and clearly taking pride in their work.  They continued to be very communicative, letting us know what was happening, what the plans were for a given day, etc etc.
There were never any "surprise issues" that they tried to charge me for... actually, any time they found anything or we had small requests or tweaks they handled it without issue and seemed to hold getting the job done right and making us happy above anything else.
I cannot stress enough how much I've come to trust these guys in the last 2 weeks... knowing all of them by name and getting to know their personalities.  These are good guys.  They didn't make us feel like we were in the way or a bother if we had questions or wanted to see something.
They also took a lot of care to minimize the impact on our daily life.  The work was mostly done in our living and dining room (in addition to stairways, hallways, etc) so some impact is unavoidable.  For example, when the flooring wasn't 100% complete, they laid flooring in the primary walking path from our front door so that we had flooring to walk on (instead of the concrete below).  There were a lot of small things like that, where the Hunt group really just went out of their way to make the renovation a pleasant experience for us.
The flooring was put down, baseboard, and the walls got painted... all in all the project stuck to it's 1.5 week estimate.  We were walked through all the work multiple times to ensure we were happy and address any questions/concerns/etc.
It really turned out great, we are so thrilled with the way our home has been transformed.
After the work was officially completed and I shook everyone's hand for what I thought was the final time on this project... they stepped up once again to help me.  We had another group out to do some electrical work and run wiring for a new home theater and they created some holes in the walls.  Well, I sent Jim a text message that evening and asked if he could help me.  Not only did he come out the next morning to get the holes fixed for me, he didn't even charge me for it.  He really wanted us to be happy with the result of all of the work that had been done.
In summary, I really feel very thankful to have met Jim through Angie's List.  We had a lot of past experiences with contractors, good and bad... but I am glad that I have found "our guy."  He takes a lot of pride in his teams work and takes a genuine interest in the way his customer feels at the end of the project.
Really great experience... Jim and I are already talking about the rest of our short and long term "home project list."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

The average cost to renovate or remodel a home is $52,300, with most projects ranging from $19,500 to over $88,400. However, costs can vary significantly, from as low as $3,000 for a small project to $170,000 or more for a complete home remodel.

Several factors influence the total price, including:

  • Project Scope and Size: The extent of the renovations, whether it's a single room or the entire house.

  • Location: Geographic location affects labor and material costs.

  • Materials: The quality of materials chosen.

  • Room Type: Kitchen remodels ($14,500 - $70,000+) are generally more expensive than bedroom remodels ($1,500 - $5,500).

  • Other Factors: The time of year, complexity of the work, and any additions or expansions.

On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $15 and $60 for standard projects and up to $150 for luxury renovations.

Examples of specific project costs include:

  • Basement remodel: ~$20,200

  • Garage remodel: ~$27,900

  • Loft conversion: ~$20,200

  • Disability accommodation remodel: ~$4,300

  • Major home repairs: ~$11,700

If you are financing the project, note that some loan programs, like the FHA 203(k), may require a minimum project cost (e.g., $5,000) and will necessitate a home appraisal and professional cost estimates. Using a home renovation cost estimator can also help you budget for your project.

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.

Custom homes can take an average of 18 months to build, mainly due to the lengthy design process, and most projects take somewhere between 12 and 24 months. When you work with the right custom home builders near you, they can help you map the road ahead and understand what can speed up or delay the timeline. Choosing locally available materials, for example, can speed things up without losing that customized touch.

How long it takes to build a custom home or rebuild a home after a disaster varies depending on many factors, but averages between seven and 14 months. Smaller homes or homes that don’t need a re-poured foundation may take less time to build than larger homes or homes without an existing foundation. Material availability, contractor schedules, and permit and inspection timelines can all affect how long your house takes to build.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.
