"Good people and great work with the re-mulching of our property. Very conscientious. They trenched around the entire house, used quality mulch, and made the home look better than the work done three years ago where we had paid nearly twice the price to another company."

"Mandolin Rising Construction did a wonderful job remodeling our two bathrooms and replacing the kitchen floor. Torey and Dan are masters at floor and shower tile work, including herringbone patterns. Amazing to find a trustworthy, hardworking, honest company with an artistic flair!"

"Fritz was great to work with from start to finish! He was punctual, and extremely flexible with our moving-target schedule based on a whole house remodel. The finished product is just as described and anticipated. People actually comment on how good it looks - they offer a variety of base paint colors and then you can add colored chips in various combinations. We love the retro look!"

"The quality of the work was well done.  Greg and Adam are very responsive.  Adam does excellent work, and very fast once he had all the cabinets, etc.  The thing folks need to know is that it takes a very long time to get cabinets custom ordered and to get granite selected and cut.  Make sure you build this in.  Overall I think this project took too long to complete (over two months), but the overall final product was really great.

"We just purchased our first home, which we love for its historic character. So much of the original house was still in place when we moved in, including the windows. And while we loved them for their historic charm, they were in pretty terrible shape. We chose Legacy and they did a superb job installing the perfect windows that blended perfectly with the rest of our home. We would not have gone a different way with that selection."

"The deck is beautiful and Steve made some great suggestions on how to redo the railings and the suggestion was perfect. ?We are still waiting on the storm door. ?The job was supposed to start the first of June and it is almost the middle of November and we are still waiting on the storm door. ?It seems like whenever I call him, they act. ?When I called Steve the last time, I was told the storm door would be installed either on a Monday or Tuesday so my husband stayed home and no one came. ?Haven't heard anything since. ?I did pay him for everything but the storm door. ?I would just like the door installed and then promise not to bother him again. We ended up ordering our own storm door and will have someone else install it."

"Claudia and her team came to deep clean my home. I am not lying when I say that the home smells and looks brand new. They paid attention to every single detail in the home. I would 1000% recommend hiring them for your home! Value for money is incredible. Itâ  s nice knowing I found my permanent go to cleaning company in the area I can rely on. Seriously, Claudia, very thankful for the time you took on my home. Youâ  re the true MVP!!"

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

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.

Modular homes last an average of between 50 and 75 years, and high-quality modular homes can last for 100 years with proper maintenance. For comparison, a standard home lasts 50 to 100 years and can push to 150 or longer with good maintenance. Modular homes provide better long-term value in that they are significantly more affordable and can last almost as long, but some buyers are wary of modular home longevity, so the actual value if you sell could be lower.

To get a quote from a builder or general contractor, contact them over the phone or online and explain your project. If you already have house plans drawn up, they’ll need to review them to determine the project's scope before providing you with a quote. Ask for your quote in writing and compare quotes from several pros before choosing the best one for your needs.
