"Bill from Tropicana was amazing. His company offers what every home owner desires in the contractor they hire. Knowledgeable and experienced, prompt and courteous, Bill was meticulous in every aspect of my project. From planning, installation and clean up, every detail was handled with care. I always felt comfortable leaving him alone in my house. He was even good with my dogs! Last but not least he made my project affordable. I received a BEAUTIFUL tiled shower for "pennies" more than one of those prefabricated inserts. I am lucky to have hired him, and would give a verbal recommendation to anyone considering his services."

"Mr. Villalba and his crew were professional and courteous from the beginning, and were delightful to work with. Mr. Villaba came by nearly everyday, but the team working in the condo were here from 7 in the morning till 4 or 5 pm every day, except on weekends. At the end, they even worked a Saturday to ensure a timely completion. Our contract provided for a 8 week construction period. All was completed in that timeframe. We made several changes to the scope of work, by adding in new lighting and a few other things. The prices for this increased scope were very fair, and we were pleased with the outcome. We recently held an open house for our neighbors and friends to see the completed work. They all were universal in their admiration for the quality of work and attractive outcome. 
As a side note, I have worked in the housing field for over 35 years, involved in both new construction and rehabilitation. I've seen both good and not so good contractors. Villalba Homes is an exceptional case of an excellent contractor for three reasons: Pricing (the work was bid among 4 contractors, his bid was the fairest); quality (all work was very carefully completed: and Timeliness (the work was completed on time!).

"I recently had my drive way improved by Strange & Strange construction. All my asked requirements were dealt with. My previous drive way held water, after the job was completed it looked amazing. They left the driveway leveled and smooth. The work was completed on time. I would definitely recommend them to anyone."

"Josh and his crew have completed 2 jobs in our condo and we are very pleased with the work and their professionalism. The first job was installing shiplap in my living room and master bedroom. These 2 walls transformed the condo and have given me a home I love to show off. The second job was simply giving my kitchen island a facelift which has again given me pride to show off our condo. I would recommend Josh/Fixation to anyone and have plans for future projects with him."

"The job went as planned the whole way through. Everything was within the budget, and the timeframe, for the price we agreed on. Joe, the owner, was there on-site every step of the way. The house looks beautiful and it couldn't have gone better. Great company."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

How long it takes to build a log cabin depends on a variety of factors, including its size and design, and whether or not you have to clear the land. Construction can take a few weeks for a prefab log cabin on an established site, but up to eight or nine months for a custom cabin on undeveloped land. In comparison, the timeline to build a house is typically four to 12 months.

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.

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.

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.
