I am an Angie's List Super Service Award Winner and a Certified General Contractor (FLlic#CGC1507887) specializing in home additions and remodeling serving Destin and surrounding areas since 1980. My estimates are free and my contracts are written. I am punctual and my work is neat, clean, and most excellent.

"Working with David was an excellent experience. We did an unusual garage addition, and if you hadn't seen the before - the addition flowed so smoothly you would never know it was done. From start to finish, he kept us updated with the daily work to be performed. The various contracted crews we're all exceptional, picked up after each days work, and showed up on time. The job came in within 10% of initial budget, and with todays economy I'm grateful! I wouldn't hesitate to hire him for our next renovation! Chris Schaefer"

"I've been dealing with this company since the beginning of the year.1-5-25. This is the most unprofessional company to work with. From lack of communication, follow through, and completion of my project. I started with the first associate, was handed off to the next associate, given engineered plans that didn't even apply to the building I was installing, sent corrections that weren't correct, resent the plans that were incorrect and haven't received anything since. I was transferred to a manager, whom never contacted me until i contacted Rueben the so called supervisor. With his lack of follow through and Joann's inability to finalize my plans, I'm still waiting. I've reached out numerous times and still no contact from this so called professional firm. Please reach out to them Angi!"

We have the experience and we are committed to providing quality workmanship and superior customer service on all our applications. We at Sowell Enterprises strive to maintain our reputation as a high quality, very service oriented company with our main focus being customer satisfaction. Being in Florida for over 20 years, we understand the confusion in the aftermath of Hurricanes, most recently Michael which devastated the Panama City area. We have opened an office in Cape Coral after Ian to help and support the community as an honest Florida Certified General Contractor to help rebuild the area, support the community, and help the people to avoid non-licensed, out of state, shoddy workmanship that is prevalent after the event. We will be here from start to finish and hold the warranty for all our services.

"Most professional, thorough, and punctual company ever. There wasn't a step from beginning to end that we weren't kept in the loop on. We gave them a key to our flooded home and next thing we knew, the sub floors were all brand new. We could not be happier with the experience from the first phone call, to the follow-up from the big guy when the work was complete. There just isn't enough good things to say. Best quote, best work, they are your best bet! A+++++++"

Home building services FAQs

Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity. 

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

The pros and cons or advantages and disadvantages of building a new house include:

Pros:

  • It’s all new, so you should have several years before you need to pay for major repairs like a new roof. 

  • It’s under warranty, so many fixes within that warranty period should be covered.

  • You get to build the house to your specifications.

Cons:

  • You have to make a LOT of decisions.

  • You will almost certainly deal with building delays.

  • It can take a lot of work to stay within your budget.

  • Building can be more expensive than buying an existing house.

The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.

Hiring a contractor to build your home is a big commitment. So be sure to ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective home builder:

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

  • Do you have worker’s compensation?

  • How long have you worked with your subcontractors?

  • How do you handle garbage and waste disposal?

  • Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • Do you give free estimates?

  • Do you offer design services?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • Can you provide at least three references?

  • Can I see some of the work you’ve done?
