"What a easy way to get your home remodeling projects done. Bronson walked us through the entire process and timeline. It was such a great experience from start to finish. I never felt like other parts of my house were a complete mess with construction. The budget we agreed on was met. Bronson is extremely friendly and communicates great until the project is finished. Thank you again!!"

"Very Happy with choosing Golden Temple Builders for my construction needs. Nick the owner was very professional and clearly explained the stages of the project and was able to work with the pricing points that I could commit to. His team went above and beyond my expectations, and job was completed even well before promised. Would Highly Recommend!!!! 10/10"

"I highly recommend Greg Luebbe and Total Home Roofing. We loved our neighbor's new roof and inquired with her to find out who did the work. She said Total Home Roofing did two of her three daycare buildings. She said Greg Luebbe was her salesman. Greg came over to the house and was very nice and helpful. He not only gave us a thorough presentation, and a great price, he got up on our steep roof and tarped over the missing shingles to prevent leaking until they could install the roof. The roof was installed exactly one week after he sold us. My husband and I are very pleased with the whole experience!"

"I submitted drawings of the garage I wanted built and in a very short time, the plans were ready and approved. AMSCO builders was very efficient in the construction of my garage, even during the rainy month of May here in Central Florida. The unusually wet month presented some problems, but the excellent crew from AMSCO worked tirelessly to finish on schedule. The quality of the building and the workmanship throughout the structure is excellent. Ryan Simmons was upfront with all the expenses and costs and at the final draw, our numbers were exactly as promised. I would recommend AMSCO to anyone considering a new garage."

"37 minutes ago You wrote: Hello, Wow am I exited to write this review! My husband and I recently hired this company to do several renovations/repairs that our home needed. The crown molding through the house looks amazing and my daughters room turned out better than I could have ever hoped! Will definitely have these gentlemen back to do our other projects. I highly recommend these contractors to anyone looking for quality and affordability. AND they showed up everyday early and worked the entire day. Can't say enough but that is it :) Thank you Hunter! Wishing you all a blessed day! Susan"

"Went wonderful! Couldn't have asked for a better experience! Joe is a perfect professional. He was punctual on the sales call, and spent tons of time with us. We never felt rushed on decisions. He got the custom cabinets made in a really reasonable timeframe and was at our place working the day they arrived. He took his time to get everything right and we are blow away by our new outdoor area. We can't stop staring at it!"

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

While it’s never too early to start planning for a major home improvement project like a home addition, give yourself at least a month or two to plan and design your addition, find a contractor, and get the permits in order. For larger projects like a second-story addition that require designing with an architect, plan on three to four months of preparation.

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.

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.

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. 

Construction typically takes 3-6 months, including site preparation and assembly.
