"We hired SAL Construction to build us a garage in Morton.
All I can say is WOW!!! Nice, polite, honest, clean, punctual?My husband found
them on Google and after visiting their website we decided to give them a call.
They did everything they said and did a beautiful job right on budget! I recommended
them to my sister who needed a tile floor installed in her kitchen. Scott did
an amazing job on the tile as well. My sister was so pleased?Her & I both
would recommend SAL to everyone. Job well done!

"Dan just finished a full basement renovation for us and we couldn't be more pleased with his work. Before meeting with Dan, our basement was a complete disaster from top to bottom. He came in and created a perfect floor plan to make our basement exactly what we needed. Everyone was always on time and Dan oversaw all of the work being done. For the quality of work, Daniel Henry Builders is very fairly price. He followed through with everything we discussed and exceeded our expectations! I couldn't find a vanity in the stores that I liked for our bathroom, Dan quickly offered to make a custom piece that is absolutely beautiful! His attention to detail and creativity added so much character to the design. From the first day meeting with Dan, my husband and I knew he was the guy for the job. He is very approachable and was very accommodating with any issues he had to work around. Highly highly HIGHLY recommend Daniel Henry Builders, they won't disappoint!"

"He was out of business because he had chosen to try another profession.  Two weeks ago he gave me a call and said he was back in business.  My brother has used him extensively and I've used him for several projects.  Now that he is back in business, I'm having him come back and do some projects for me.  His name is Daryl Fegatto.  I highly recommend him and in fact I have recommended him to others.  His license ensures free estimates, framing, roofing, siding, room additions, custom decks, trim carpentry and hardwood.  He did siding when my brother built his house.  He did my brother's basement and he may end up getting mine when that time comes.  He made my garage from 20 by 20 to 20 by 30 and he reroofed all that about eight years ago.  He has purchased some land, built homes and sold them.  He has a tendency to over build which we pay for but the projects he does is going to last.  He is not fly by night kind of operation."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

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. 

Renovating or remodeling an existing structure is usually less expensive than the cost to build a new house. That’s because you can save on the costs of new building materials, laying a foundation, framing the entire building, and installing new materials and utilities throughout the house. However, if a home is in very poor condition or is incredibly old, you could spend more on upgrades and restoration compared to building from scratch.

Local regulations dictate how big an ADU can be, and there may also be restrictions on the percentage of the main residence’s square footage an ADU can have. In most cases, an ADU must be smaller than the main residence, but check with your local building authority to confirm restrictions on ADU size.

Modular homes are more affordable than stick-built homes if you keep quality and square footage equal. The cost to build a home averages $323,000, while average modular home prices sit at {AvgCost}. If you’re looking for custom or luxury options, a traditional custom home costs $825,000, while a high-end modular home costs $600,000, on average.

If you want to make your home eco-friendly, enjoy low maintenance, and love the fact that its looks will take people’s breath away (and not because they were trying to blow your house down), then a modern brick home is right for you. You can hire a mason to get the building process started for your brick home.

But if you’re not fond of the color and don’t want to deal with the process of repointing or other repairs, consider going with vinyl or wood. These materials offer a lower cost. While they tend to require more maintenance, they don’t cost nearly the same as exterior brick house repair.
