"Overall it went well.  Mr. Eric Hooks was very responsive in coming to give estimate.  Started kitchen and living room work as per our agreement, finished as contracted.  Did a great job at a fair price. I then hired Eric to enlarge wood fence gate, fix front yard pole lighting and sensor.  I needed the fence gate enlarged pretty quickly so truck and tree removal equipment could get through the gate. He accomplished the enlargement as promised.  The electrical outlet installation, light & sensor repair/replacement  and fence work required some revisits for adjustments but overall Mr. Hooks and his team does quality work and are very curtious and professional.  I  recommend his services to others and I would/will hire his company again."

"H&W All Construction completely transformed my kitchen! From the first consultation to the final walk-through, the team was professional, communicative, and incredibly detail-oriented. They helped me bring my vision to life with updated cabinets, new countertops, and a more open layout that feels so modern and functional. What I appreciated most was how clean and respectful they were throughout the process. They stayed on schedule, kept me informed, and the quality of the work truly shows. I’m beyond happy with my kitchen and definitely recommend H&W All Construction for any remodel!"

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Shipping container homes last at least 25 years on average, but they can last even longer with proper maintenance. Since shipping containers are made from metal, they’re quite vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This issue is exacerbated in coastal areas or areas with a lot of precipitation. To extend the life span of your container home, install siding that protects the exterior. 

Remodeling a house is often less expensive than building a new house. You can expect to pay an average of $100 per square foot when you are remodeling. The cost to build a house averages about $150 per square foot. When remodeling, though, some rooms cost more than $100 per square foot and some cost less. Use a home renovation cost estimator to accurately estimate your remodeling costs.

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.
