"The Clark’s did a great job turning a secondary attached garage into a “babe cave” for me! I even added in a surprise hall that they worked out for me. They are professional and stay true to commitments. I just re-hired them to do some work on my parents’ home."

"At first they weren't going to let me transfer the remaining 4 years on my contract to my new home, but they relented. One of the service people didn't wear PPE when he came inside to work on my stove. That was concerning. He also didn't have the necessary parts for the repair which required another trip and time out of my day waiting."

"First, let me say that The Vallett Builders were amazing. I am still in disbelief about my New Bathroom. I hire Mr.John Vallett as my contractor after searching for a year unsuccessful to find a trustworthy contractor to help me restore my 1920's Craftsman Bungalow in The Historic Vineville Neigborhood in Macon. Than God must have heard my prayers and sent me John Vallett...OMG Mr. John Vallett is (The Holmes of Homes in Middle Georgia) the T.V. show on TLC. Mr. John Vallett as earned my trust,commitment & loyalty as a customer for life. P.S. I am very hard to please..LOL T. Blocker, Macon GA"

"Backyard custom construction LLC. Is awesome. Not only did they kill everyone's prices around Atlanta to build the same building but they are extremely efficient. Everyone else I contacted gave me quotes for over $4000.00 dollars. Dustin quoted me over the phone by text and on a live call $2930.00 and then I added 2 stairs to the building which only cost an additional $50.00. I'm completely amazed at how fast these guys were. It only took 5 1/2 hours to build and clean up. Thanks guys I will be passing your name to everyone I know that wants a building built."

"Michael did a wonderful job repairing a ceiling fan, installing a new outdoor sconce light and repairing a ceiling light in my home. He was on time, polite, knowledgeable and efficient. He cleaned up after himself and even changed out bulbs he saw burned out. His customer service skills are excellent and his pricing was very reasonable. I have found my new electrician and will be recommending him to my friends."

"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."

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Most cottages are around 1,000 square feet, making them smaller than most other styles. However, cottages are defined more by their decor and architectural focus on simplicity, functionality, and a connection to nature than they are by a rigid square footage or floor plan. While cottages are defined more by their charm and appearance than size, the smaller footprint does help maximize the comfort and charm, and it keeps the focus on connection to nature and family.
