"Although my family and I decided to stay within the family to have the work performed in our home, Lenny and Star Construction would have been the ideal source to have our home remodeled. His level and efficiency with communication is by far the best we have experienced. He is punctual, professional and beyond experienced. He provided photos of his work as well as complete and detailed information regarding our property and what could and could not be done. Star Construction is clearly a company that takes its customers very seriously.

"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 don’t usually leave reviews but I had to write one for Rightway Construction. Great prices and even better customer service. They did our master bathroom and completely remodel our floors. We couldn’t be happier. I will re-hire them in a heart beat."

"I had a wonderful experience working with Zahir and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home. I always viewed home repairs, renovations, or even new constructions as a long, hectic, and quite confusing process, however Zahir guided me through every step. He led with care and my best interest in mind. He remained attentive to details and was very easy to communicate with throughout the process. Zahir worked diligently to ensure all my goals were met. Thank you for all the hard work and if I am ever in the market looking for further projects, I will definitely prefer to work with Zahir again."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

On average, the cost of a home builder is about $150 per square foot, but that price can range from around $100 to $400 per square foot or more. That puts the typical price range of a standard, 2,000-square-foot house between $200,000 and $800,000. Some factors that affect the price of hiring a home builder include the following:

  • Location of your home and the living cost in the area

  • Type of foundation and framing you choose

  • Quality of the building materials

  • Footprint and layout of the house

  • Number of stories

  • Builder’s experience

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.

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.

Ultimately, a work warranty is only as reliable as the contractor you’ve hired. That’s why trust and reputation are such important factors, in addition to having a solid contract and confirming appropriate licensing, insurance, and bonding. When looking for a contractor, it’s a good idea to read online reviews and ratings to see what kind of experience past customers have had. Issues with your contractor can make for an unsatisfying renovation process, but a reliable contractor can make the process go as smoothly as possible.

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.
