"My experience with Horner Construction and Design was very positive. After reaching out to Brad Horner and receiving a quote, we continued to correspond back and forth for several months with questions I had. Once I decided to use Horner Construction, I was provided a detailed contract that showed what products would be used and the cost of each. The craftsmen who work for BHC&D were very knowledgeable, professional and invested in the final product being quality work. They removed all old decking, support post and handrails and hauled them away. The deck/screened porch they built was exactly what I envisioned. It looks as though it was an original deck and roof, not an addition. The original deck size was 12' x 34', and approximately 12' from ground level. The finished product is a 12' x 22' screened porch and a 12' x 12' open deck. They custom make the screen panels, which I like because I didn't want a screen kit that would reduce the size of the panels or have metal framing attached to the wood deck. The screen panels are 8' wide and very taunt. The screens are stretched from the decking to the roof. They installed 8 recessed LED lights and a ceiling fan. They were not the cheapest of estimates that I received when getting quotes, but I was focused on getting a high quality product because I see this as an investment on my home. I would recommend Horner Construction & Design to my friends and family."

"At the time of the work, the owner of this business, Joel  was working for another contractor, John. This was one of the last jobs that the contractor (John) did at which point he moved to Ohio. The work that Joel performed on the job while working for John was excellent.  Joel did most of the framing for the project which included some very difficult angles and corners because of the shape of the existing space. Joel was on time and always very friendly and professional. One day he stayed until 8 pm to finish installing a new window. He had to cut a larger opening for the window and frame it in as well. After the job was finished and John had moved away,  there was one small item that still needed to be completed for the project. Joel came down to finish the last bit and he didn't charge me anything for it, even though he had to make a special trip. Joel was excellent to work with and is very good at what he does. I would hire him in the future if I needed any more work done.

"service provider sent by American Home Shield was excellent. The only issue I have with home warranty services is that they do not send their repair companies out on the week-end, even in an emergency. The customer service personnel is less than enthusiastic or helpful."

"Excellent professional service with all work performed! Fill dirt installation and compaction, Footer installation and excavation were among the first projects performed. Was very pleased and decided to give them a shot on concrete work. Great job on it as well. Concrete work performed at my home has ranged from basic slabs, decorative style driveway and mores complex custom job to meet a unique need for a therapy spa. Their team is willing to think outside the box and develop the best solution, to cost effectively meet your needs. There is never a question in my mind of who to call for my concrete and excavation needs. Brandon Escandon with Maven Group is my first and only call."

"I heard about NP Construction via friends, and was extremely impressed! I had a certain time frame I was looking at due to an event coming up I was hosting at my home, and everything was done very efficiently, not to mention even under my budget. The job was handled professionally, and articulately. I will definitely be using NP again for any future projects."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.

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.

Framing is often the most expensive phase of building a house because it’s time-consuming and requires a lot of materials. It costs between $20,000 and $50,000 on average, depending on materials and labor costs. Before construction begins, it’s possible that purchasing land is the priciest step in the process. Some plots of land sell for $3,000, while others cost upwards of $150,000.

Modular homes are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and faster to build than traditional homes. They also offer customizable designs.

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.
