"We underwent a MAJOR home reno and Kevin and his team was by our side every step of the way. From design to implementation, Kevin was transparent, responsive and professional. Even when we were worried about minor details, Kevin assured us he would make sure we were happy. Our space went from cramped and dated to open and sleek. I seriously can't believe the finished product is my house! Cynthia and Tom followed up with the sub-contractors and ensured the work was done right the first time. I promise you won't be disappointed with Alex Custom Homes!"

"Since new construction is king right now, for a few years we struggled to find a contractor that would renovate our back porch which was in desperate need. We finally found Mike McCall, owner of McCall Custom Builders and appreciated him from the first meeting. He was punctual, professional, attentive, honest, extremely fair, and experienced. He diligently checked in with us to ensure we were happy with the direction of the project as well as keeping us informed along the way. While he would provide his experiences, knowledge, and preferences he always wanted to make sure it was what we wanted. While construction costs were sometimes more than expected, Mike was very conscientious about cost and offered alternatives whenever available. He was very transparent with costs, outlining them throughout and then with a final reconciliation at the end of the project. We have to give a special shout out to his framer and crew. Of all the crews they probably worked the hardest. They"

"Tom is simply an outstanding General Contractor! On my first job, he has removed my home's old wooden facade, stuccoed it and replaced rotting wood. My second consisted of a complete remodel of my Master Bath. My third occurred after he repaired substantial hurricane damage to my roof. I recommend him without hesitation as being a fair, creative and responsive company."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits. 

A construction-to-permanent loan is the most common type of mortgage used to finance a house teardown and rebuild. These loans include financing for construction costs and convert to a long-term mortgage once construction is complete. Check the terms of the loan closely before beginning work—there are often restrictions requiring you to use licensed contractors for all work.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

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.

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.
