"He did a very professional tear out and replacement of our exterior kitchen door. He explained the project well and did a comprehensive discussion of our replacement options. We opted to go with one of the top line weather resistant exterior doors. We feel we now have a lifetime door replacement that looks terrific. Ervin left the job site clean and picked up as if he’d never been there. I would strongly recommend him for your next home improvement project."

"We worked with NPS to build a screened-in-porch on our home. We worked with James on the design and are so pleased with the porch! Our ideas and needs were clearly integrated throughout the design process but elevated by the expertise of the professionals at NPS. The price also seems incredibly competitive for what we got. The project, like most renovations took much longer than we had hoped, but we are very happy with the final result. I would be happy to talk to anyone who wants to work with NPS."

My wife and I have used World Painting several times over the last four years in two different houses.  The most recent project was a complete makeover of the outside of our home.  We consulted with the World Painting staff on the design (two tones) and the proper colors to use.  We are very happy with the outcomes; both the appearance and the quality of workmanship.

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"Due to rain it took the project longer than expected. The plan was for 2 days, it took them 1 day. They took out old brick chimney, installed flue liner and converted to an insulated flue to vent water heater. Framed in old opening, installed shingles, flashed new water heater in roof, cleaned entire area. Great job! Mr. Mennenga got his hands dirty too. I enjoyed working with them. Would recommend."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.

Historically, Tudor homes originally stemmed from the 15th and 16th centuries, while Victorians appeared during Queen Victoria's reign in the 19th century. The design and structural differences are significant as well. The many types of Victorian architecture—such as Italianate architecture—typically feature ornate trim, wood siding, wraparound porches, and tall towers on top, such as belvederes. On the other hand, Tudor-style homes feature white stucco exteriors with exposed wooden rafters marking the house frame both inside and out.

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits. 

The longest part of building a custom home is the design phase. It takes multiple professionals and a ton of work to bring your vision for your dream home to life while sticking to a homebuilding budget and also ensuring everything is built to code. Expect the design phase for a custom home build to take six months to a year.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.
