"Hired David Graf to repair a rotten beam on our patio, replace stucco/drywall around it, and redo the second floor balcony decking with new hand railings. Not only David provided us with the most competitive estimate, he realized some material savings during the process which ended up saving about 10% at the end. Quality exceeded our expectations. He is a man of his word - definitely would hire him again! Thanks David!"

"A major remodelling is such a large undertaking. Matt and his crew turned our home addition project into a total success. The communication and reliability were clear from the start. The skill, the talent, and the experience of this team were just so evident in all of the creative details and quality workmanship . Such a great job and worth every penny. Five stars!!!"

"I have owned 3 houses in ocala , Fl. For about 10 years now. About 2 years ago a good friend of over 30 years recommended GPS to me . They have done extensive renovations in 2 of my houses. They do a complete professional finished job at a great price. They have done total kitchen and bath renovations with a great attention to detail. Painted entire interior and exterior of 1 house with excellent finished quality. Jason's suggestion of a butcher block kitchen was a great choice as well as his talent in color coordinating the project. I am very fortunate to find such a good contractor. I have had many interactions with contractors in florida, New York and New Jersey, and will say GPS is up top on my list and would recommend his work. Thanks Jason."

"Loay Jabbar provided the information I needed quickly and clearly. I immediately signed up for full coverages for our two homes because of the discounts offered and because of the quality of service that Loay is saying and promising Choice Home Warranty provides to its customers. I have bad experiences with other home warranty companies so I am hoping I found the best company that would deliver the best service."

"Valenchi Construction are the best. We hired them when my mother had water damage in her home due a broken water pipe. Their work is outstanding, as they pay attention to every detail, and their customer service is the best. They answered all of our questions and made sure my 94 year old mother was totally safe during the entire repair process, and even assisted us with the insurance company to pay for a hotel when the flooring had to be removed and new flooring put in."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.

Modular homes can be a great investment, especially for those who find the prices of stick-built real estate too high. Modular homes are usually much more affordable because they’re mass-manufactured and then assembled on-site or delivered mostly assembled. If they’re installed properly and by professionals, they can last for between 50 and 100 years, potentially making them an outstanding investment.

The average build timeline for a home is between six and 12 months, with timelines pushing toward the upper end of that range if you’re creating a custom design or need a lot of land preparation before getting started. Hiring a general contractor or a custom homebuilder will help speed up the process, as you’ll see fewer delays between different parts of the build process getting done.

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.

In most states, you can build an in-law suite on your property as long as you follow local building codes. However, it's important that you have enough space on your property to accommodate the new structure. A functional in-law suite in your backyard will require between 300 and 800 square feet of space.
