McCall Custom Builders is committed to excellence in every aspect of our business. We uphold a standard of integrity bound by fairness, honesty, and personal responsibility. Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"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 "

"The whole experience was terrible. Thomas is a great salesman, but do not be fooled; once he has the money, you are screwed. Be prepared for poor communication, a lack of accountability, and poor craftsmanship. They do not monitor the quality of the subcontractors, nor do they care; they only want your money, and they upcharge at every chance they get. When you hold payment because the work is not completed, McCloskey Homes will threaten to stop all work. This guy is a complete liar. My wife and I had the misfortune of having him build our home with McCloskey Homes. I am stuck with the bill for correcting all the items that are of poor quality, and the list is extensive. According to Thomas, all the issues that are wrong with the home are my fault for moving in. There is no warranty, no punch list items will be dealt with, and no damage they caused will be corrected; they just get your money and move on to the next victim. Save yourself the aggravation and find a more competent contractor. I would never recommend McCloskey Homes to anyone."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Building a new home can be more expensive than buying an existing one, depending on the housing market in your area. Many homeowners still find that building a new house is worth the investment as they can choose the exact layout they want, as well as to choose their own floors, wall coverings, appliances, and finishes. If you live close enough to the build site, you can also stop by to check on the builder’s progress, which can provide some peace of mind that the project is worth it.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

Modular homes can go up or down in value depending on a few factors. In areas where real estate is appreciating, the value of modular homes is likely to increase, and vice versa. Additionally, the value of modular homes depends partially on the area. In cities where every other home is stick-built, modular homes might be considered a functional obsolescence, in which case they could be less desirable and go down in value. In either case, though, modular homes can still be a good investment, especially since they provide housing at a lower upfront cost.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

Yes, you can finance new construction using a construction loan or a construction-to-permanent loan, or you can use a home equity line of credit or a cash-out refinance if you’re building a second home. Some mortgagors may have restrictions on DIY house builds, so be sure to check that you can get financing before starting your project.
