"Ace built two custom dormers into our existing roof so our daughter's playroom would be a cozier, more open, and brighter place for her to have fun. Their workers were some of the nicest and hardest working contractors I've ever met. During the two-week project, I would check out their progress daily. They were here every morning early and several times quite late, always taking care to properly tarp off and secure the project before they left for the day. From start to finish, the quality of their work was precise and professional. At no point was I concerned about any corners being cut, and the final inspection passed without any trouble. We're in love with the end result. At one point, when a severely undersized support beam was discovered mid-project, the owner, Bill Johnson, met with us personally to discuss our options without any pushiness. It's hard to find such trustworthy, qualified contractors committed to the safety and success of a project. We were lucky to have been introduced to Ace and would surely consider them for our next renovation."

"I was impressed from the very first phone call with them. The office staff was knowledgeable and professional. They sent out someone to give an estimate within a day or so. That person was also knowledgeable and gave me options on how to approach the repair work, which i compared to another company that gave an estimate. I ended up liking the solutions better from JMR so I hired them.

The person they sent out was very customer-service oriented. He looked at what needed to be done and offered yet another solution that was over and above the ones I was given from the estimator. He showed me pictures and I really liked his solution. We had some rainy weather and he worked the best he could in between the rain. They were very agreeable, kept me in touch the whole time and completed the work as we agreed and I am completely satisfied. Sometimes you call a competent contractor that is the sole person who answers phones, does the work, etc. and say that they'll call you when they can since they're always on the job...This company has a full staff which makes the whole process very efficient. Their website is very informative and when they include a lot of helpful information in their estimates. This company seems to be very established and really knows what they're doing."

"Excellent company and excellent service. Everyone that came to work was always pleasant, knew what they were doing and did not cut corners. Always easy to get a hold of and would listen to my thoughts on the project. Together we would make decisions and they always were positive and very knowledgeable. Usually having construction in your home can be stressful, not with Bath Planet of Atlanta. I so appreciate their amazing job well done."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, a home builder or contractor should have the proper licensing and insurance. Licensing requirements vary by state and municipality, but most states mandate that a builder holds at least a general contractor’s license. For specialized work such as plumbing, electrical, roofing, or sewage systems, individual licenses may be required, in which case the builder may subcontract the work. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to review your local guidelines and confirm a builder's credentials. As you browse professionals, you can also look for the “Angi Certified” badge. This indicates the business meets our certification standards, which include passing a criminal background check, holding applicable state and local licenses, and maintaining an average rating of 3.0 or better.

Modular homes are a type of prefab home. Specifically, manufacturers first build modular homes in sections and then deliver them to the job site. The modules, or sections, are usually at least 70% finished before they arrive on your property.

In comparison, prefab homes arrive in panels or segments, and workers assemble them on-site. Generally speaking, modular homes tend to be more durable, and their consistent construction standards may mean you’ll have an easier time getting conventional home loans.

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

Custom homes can take an average of 18 months to build, mainly due to the lengthy design process, and most projects take somewhere between 12 and 24 months. When you work with the right custom home builders near you, they can help you map the road ahead and understand what can speed up or delay the timeline. Choosing locally available materials, for example, can speed things up without losing that customized touch.

Modular homes last an average of between 50 and 75 years, and high-quality modular homes can last for 100 years with proper maintenance. For comparison, a standard home lasts 50 to 100 years and can push to 150 or longer with good maintenance. Modular homes provide better long-term value in that they are significantly more affordable and can last almost as long, but some buyers are wary of modular home longevity, so the actual value if you sell could be lower.
