"­We are very happy with the new custom home Clean Edge built for us. True to their name, they provide a great attention to detail. The quality of the construction is very high, with solid materials and also an aesthetic on the finishing touches. You have to look very hard to find any imperfections, and then they correct those quickly. The owner is very focused on this approach, providing products and services a cut above the rest. This company is a rare find and I would not hesitate to engage them again any time."

"A.R.K. Specialty Service was a very professional family-run, business. From the start, they provided a very detailed quote for our custom-finished basement project and we valued their vast experience in recommendations of layout, design, and functionality of our space. The level of detail and input they sought from us was very much appreciated and we felt throughout the process their #1 goal was customer satisfaction and making sure we were extremely happy with the final result. The finished product blew us away. Our 1600 square feet of space was turned from a drab, cold, unfinished space into a beautiful custom bar, built-in cabinet large living room, 3/4 bathroom, bedroom, fitness room, and entertainment/game room. Our family will enjoy many years to come in this beautiful space A.R.K. Specialty Service created for us and we are extremely happy we chose them to build us the basement of our dreams!"

"I loved making one phone call and having them take care of the rest!! I had my gutters, siding, and roof all replaced hassle free. I was able to pick out what I wanted from the comfort of my home. Each crew came out and finished each job in 1 day! They cleaned up very well. Which was awesome since I have 4 small kids and 2 dogs who live outside! The owners actually came out as the house was being worked on and made sure everything was going as planned!"

"John and his crew were very professional, polite and friendly. They were prompt and patient when we couldn't make up our minds on some things and even changed the way we asked for it. They just smiled and said and quot;no problemand quot;. We like their work and are about ready to have them do our main bathroom. Would recommend highly.
Forward a few weeks - we have John currently remodeling our main bath.

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

Builder-grade is one of two types of stock cabinets, whereas semi-custom designs allow homeowners some control over the color, finish, or hardware on their cabinets. Stock cabinets are sold in construction-grade and builder-grade designs. Construction-grade cabinets are usually made from inexpensive medium-density fiberboard, which is prone to moisture damage, whereas builder-grade models are a step up with higher-quality materials. Construction-grade designs are the most common type of cabinets in America.

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.

Handypeople usually don’t hold trade licenses, so they typically aren’t qualified to tackle projects involving installing or making alterations to plumbing or electrical lines. Below are some jobs that a handyperson usually won’t be able to complete:

There are energy-efficient options when building a cottage. Select green building materials, high-performance insulation, and energy-efficient windows when designing your cottage. Options such as solar panels, efficient HVAC systems, and LED lighting can lower your utility bills and reduce your environmental impact. Many builders offer energy-efficient upgrades as part of the design process.

While many different factors determine whether a house is classified as a villa, many villas are detached homes with a European design influence, often with an emphasis on luxury and comfort. Modern villas often feature outdoor spaces such as terraces, gardens, or patios.
