"My first interaction started kind of with suspicion, but I relied on good ratings on this site and other sites. Now after the house is complete I should have looked around how to spend over 700 k. They hired subcontractors from the very cheapest spectrum but billed me as if they hired the most expensive specialists. I had overages in most categories without any proof. The builder trend communication they use is confusing, slow and serves the builders interest only, they can edit it anytime too. So if you get quotes from Southernwood do not be happy, the price at closing would magically increase by many many thousands. My basement is already cracked as well as my driveway and I did not even move in yet. I have no water pressure despite spending over 20 grand on upgrading the well and having 70+ psi at well with 3hp motor and 100gallon per min supply. Blame game is ongoing. Too many flies in the ointment. I am sharing for you to make a more informed decision I wish I had. My next step with them will most likely be BBB, then complaint with the Consumer Protection then litigating. I am ready to spend another 15 grand on a lawyer."

"Hail damage occurred in March of this year and I contacted Braswell Construction as well as 2 other local roofing companies. Chris Gaugler contacted me asap and came out to the house. The other two roofing companies I never heard back. Braswell Construction contacted my insurance company and worked out all the details. A week later I had a brand new roof with gorgeous colored shingles. Everyone in the neighborhood stopped by and literally knocked on the door to inquire. Chris Gaugler was onsite and available for questions anytime to the very end. The crew only took one day to do the house, extended 4 car garage and well house. Photos attached and it really makes a difference."

"Excellent work. Pergola is beautiful and very sturdy (drilled into concrete patio). Thor and his crew are professional and thorough. They really care about their work and are a pleasure to work with. The evening after they applied the stain, it started to rain. Thor came back and covered the Pergola with a tarp to give the stain longer to set."

FAQs for home building projects in Nicholson, GA

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

The pros and cons or advantages and disadvantages of building a new house include:

Pros:

  • It’s all new, so you should have several years before you need to pay for major repairs like a new roof. 

  • It’s under warranty, so many fixes within that warranty period should be covered.

  • You get to build the house to your specifications.

Cons:

  • You have to make a LOT of decisions.

  • You will almost certainly deal with building delays.

  • It can take a lot of work to stay within your budget.

  • Building can be more expensive than buying an existing house.

Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity. 

The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.

Hiring a contractor to build your home is a big commitment. So be sure to ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective home builder:

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

  • Do you have worker’s compensation?

  • How long have you worked with your subcontractors?

  • How do you handle garbage and waste disposal?

  • Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • Do you give free estimates?

  • Do you offer design services?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • Can you provide at least three references?

  • Can I see some of the work you’ve done?
