"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!"

"Amazing company. Martin showed up the next day to give me estimates and a quote, they started within a week and were finished within 3 days. Also hung a light fixture and a ceiling fan outside for us and did a great job. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I will use them for any future general contractor needs at my house."

"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

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

Buying a house is easier than building one from scratch. Buying an existing home is almost always faster, even if you need to make renovations once you move in. When you hire the right team to build a home, they will simplify the design and build phases so that there is little guesswork throughout the process, but building new construction will almost always take longer than buying an existing home.

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.

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.
