"I asked Shed Doctors for a quote to build an large outdoor structure. John responded quickly. In looking at the project closely, it was determined to not be a good fit. Rather than try to bid and take on the project anyway, John was upfront and honest. While this project didn't happen, I will definitely reach out to Shed Doctors in the future for any projects that I believe could align."

"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."

"The damage was extensive, Dave Schwartz was very transparent with his estimate of cost. We didn't know what all needed done until drywall, subfloor and exterior siding were removed. Everything was repaired well, I was kept up to date on all work. As the house was going on the market, they even chipped in and helped me remove wallpaper from **** from my daughter's room. I have since hired them for every home repair job I need."

"

Patio has narrow access to it from driveway - Karl's small Bobcat tractor was able to maneuver in tight spaces. Old concrete was removed, new bed of limestone footing installed, and foam barrier installed against house. They repaired previously unseen void in concrete porch step next to patio. Poured concrete to ensure drainage away from house, used brushed finish. Can't believe how much better it looks now with the new concrete!  Well worth the investment.

"It went great! Charles was easy to get a hold of and was able to get me scheduled right away. Both the owner and his helper were very knowledgable and creative when it came to troubleshooting my projects. He helped me fix a door that wasn't shutting properly and he also helped me with my hardwood flooring project. They helped me find a solution that was not only simple but saved me money too. Charles also had a lot of creative ideas for other projects around my home which I appreciate and is something you don't see everyday in a contractor. They were very personable and won't hesitate to use them again in the future. I highly recommed Charles and his team. They were awesome!

"It went very well. This is the second time I've worked with Innovative Garages and they are very professional. I had no issues whatsoever. They did great work. The price was good and they did all the work in one day. I am now enjoying insulated garage doors which makes the garage more comfortable in the winter and should lower my energy bill. They also replaced a garage door spring previously for me, and they also did a great job."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

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.

On average, the cost of a home builder is about $150 per square foot, but that price can range from around $100 to $400 per square foot or more. That puts the typical price range of a standard, 2,000-square-foot house between $200,000 and $800,000. Some factors that affect the price of hiring a home builder include the following:

  • Location of your home and the living cost in the area

  • Type of foundation and framing you choose

  • Quality of the building materials

  • Footprint and layout of the house

  • Number of stories

  • Builder’s experience

A custom home is one that you design from the ground up, allowing you to customize everything from the square footage to the interior layout to all of the materials used. A spec home is one that a builder has designed and gotten approvals for. Spec homes may give you some limited options for the layout and materials, but most of the build is pre-set. Custom homes cost more and take longer to build.

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.

How long it takes to build a log cabin depends on a variety of factors, including its size and design, and whether or not you have to clear the land. Construction can take a few weeks for a prefab log cabin on an established site, but up to eight or nine months for a custom cabin on undeveloped land. In comparison, the timeline to build a house is typically four to 12 months.
