"Our family had the pleasure of working with Stephen Matthews and Custom One Builders. We started our project as a remodel which soon turned into a complete rebuild as we found that in our old house there were many foundation issues preventing us from increasing our house size as needed for our large family. Stephen, his sons, and his team of contractors made the entire process much less overwhelming. Custom One Builders provided excellent service, quality product, constant communication, and a fair price. We highly recommend Custom One Builders and should the need ever arise again, we will definitely head straight to Custom One Builders."

GreenLight Construction Group is an Insurance Restoration Contractor that works alongside homeowners & insurance providers to ensure that all storm-damage claims are handled & invoiced properly. We pride ourselves on our level of craftsmanship, our understanding of the insurance industry, & the fact that we recognize the level of trust and security each person needs when choosing their Contractor. We can also help you with your interior & exterior remodeling needs. We are very proud that we've won the Angie's List Super Service award 6 years in a row (and counting)!

"The folks at Greenlight Construction Group have mastered the art of customer service in an industry plagued by complaints. We had an old shake roof and gutters which needed to be replaced. The president, Joe, was on time for his appointment to discuss solutions and give us a cost estimate. He spent a lot of his time letting us know that this is a large construction job which was really messy and gave us advice on preservation of landscaping. The presentation was very low key and after talking about a number of options, he gave us several cost estimates and said to contact him with any follow up questions. On the way out he gave us some samples of shingles with available colors. No pressure whatsoever! We awarded Greenlight the job and that is when the outstanding service became obvious. At no time during the project were we in the dark about status. Tom, our project coordinator, was routinely on the phone or texting us with details of delivery and crew scheduling. Our home is a ranch, so the roof is larger than most, yet they matched the job size with the necessary crew and were done in 2 days. The guys on the job were about as careful as you can be given it was a demolition zone. The final product is outstanding and we highly recommend this company to anyone looking for professionalism and outstanding service."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Painting countertops can take a few days to complete yourself. However, keep in mind that it can take up to 14 days for the sealer to cure. So, you want to make sure you wait the manufacturer's recommended amount of time before using your countertops after painting them.

In-law suite floor plans almost always include at least one bedroom, a bathroom, and a combination kitchen/living room area or separate spaces for the kitchen and living room. Larger in-law suites built in accessory dwelling units separate from your main structure can feature multiple bedrooms, dining rooms, and entertainment rooms in addition to the necessities.

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. 

Home additions can add significant value to a home by increasing its overall square footage and enhancing a home's functionality and appeal. Key additions such as extra bedrooms, bathrooms, or larger kitchens offer the highest returns on investment. Well-planned additions that seamlessly integrate with the existing structure and match the neighborhood's style can boost curb appeal and market value. However, the actual increase in value depends on the quality of the work, the types of additions, and the current real estate market conditions.

Yes, home builders need to be licensed in every state and municipality in the country. The specific license required varies based on the location and the work, but most states require that the builder hold a general contractor’s license at minimum. Some states and cities also require that plumbing, electrical, roofing, and sewage system construction require individual licenses, in which case the builder may subcontract the work. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that the builder you’re considering holds all the proper licenses.
