"I know Chris and his crew for over 5 years. We contracted them to do our kitchen remodeling in 2022 and several home renovation projects (including installing new windows at our home) in the last four years. They did excellent jobs on all occasions. Many contractors do good jobs but Chris’s greatest strength is that he listens to what the customer wants, finds the best options to fit the customer’s budget, and efficiently delivers the project in time with least hindrances. I am a strong supporter and advocate for local small businesses and Chris has never disappointed me. Furthermore, he is honest and reliable - during the kitchen remodeling, I left my house keys with him to come in and do the job while my family and I went away to McCall for an entire week. I strongly recommend IDAC."

I couldn't ask for someone to have been more considerate and forthcoming.

No shortcuts taken, everything done the way it should be done. Any questions from Tony were timely and I'm sure saved me angst down the road!

Am going to have Tony (Modern Remodeling, LLC) do our windows....am very pleased with his work ethic!

"My first remodel in my home and it went really well. Jon was very accommodating and willing to work within my budget, giving me a couple of different quotes of work they could do. Once the work and budget was decided on, it went very smoothly. Ben did the majority of the work and he was very kind, professional, and open about what tasks were happening that day. I liked that they cleaned as they worked especially since it was a small space and my only bathroom in the house. I would totally recommend them to my friends and family and will be using them again in the near future for upcoming projects."

"Loay Jabbar provided the information I needed quickly and clearly. I immediately signed up for full coverages for our two homes because of the discounts offered and because of the quality of service that Loay is saying and promising Choice Home Warranty provides to its customers. I have bad experiences with other home warranty companies so I am hoping I found the best company that would deliver the best service."

"They did an awesome job. They were easy to communicate with. If there was any issue then they took care of it. They were very professional, easy to talk to and they made it overwhelming project as our previous home had actually burnt down. They were just amazing. They made it as painless as possible to reconstruct the home. I have nothing but great things to say about them. I think I had a great value for home as they actually built a much bigger home than the one I had before and they helped me the most in creative ways to save money without compromising quality."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.

It is a good idea to check in with your local city and state regulations before committing to building a shipping container home no matter where you live. This concept is pretty new across the country, and many places won’t let you build one.

The International Code Council (ICC) offers guidelines for home builders on the safe use of ISO intermodal shipping containers repurposed as building components, which can be helpful to review when planning or designing a shipping container home.

Ranch and colonial-style homes are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average.

Green homes are often more expensive to build, averaging around $200 per square foot compared to the $150 per square foot you’d spend to build a standard home. However, green homes can save you money on your utility bills by consuming less energy or creating energy using solar panels or wind turbines on-site. They’re more expensive to build, but they often end up costing less in the long run.

One of the best ways to negotiate with a homebuilder is to forgo price reductions. Instead, negotiate over upgrades and incentives, as many builders are more willing to go down that road than to decrease their own fee. Even if they were willing to take a cut, a reputable homebuilder often knows their worth, so a willingness to negotiate could be a red flag. Beyond that, builders are typically willing to negotiate closing costs instead of offering a discount on the base price.
