"I rarely, if ever give 5 star reviews. But, I DO recommend Maynor Construction (MC)! But, 5 = perfection, and nothing is perfect : ) I hired MC for cement siding and sunroom addition project, beginning in June of 22, ending Sep, 22. I will review the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. But, this doesn't cover everything, because Home Advisor only allows so many characters. Finally, this was my first (major) home improvement project and likely the largest investment I will ever make in my home. The Good - Maynor (owner) is a very knowledgeable and a skilled builder, with many years of experience. I appreciated that he was actually on site many days, not only supervising, but also working along side his team. - The administrative staff was magnificent. Responsive, knowledgeable, friendly, and available. Having the right people in the front office can make or break a business. Hire the right people to manage the office and it will pay dividends toward the success of your company...in my humble opinion. - I had fiber cement siding installed on my home, and a sunroom that replaced an old, broken-down outdoor breezeway. This was no easy project and teams of highly-skilled workers were at my home daily, typically from before 8am until nearly sundown - and even partially on Saturdays. We were blessed with very little rain through the 3 months, which accelerated the work. Maynor's team worked very hard, moved efficiently, and maintained a great level of skill throughout the process. The Bad - For the most part, none of my utilities were affected all that much. Utility boxes were moved away at the beginning, were moved back at the end, and worked just fine. I also had a lot of electrical added and moved throughout the project, but alterations and small inconveniences were to be expected. However, there was a problem when it came to Maynor's (unintended) disruption of my ATT Fiber. While there was no cutting of that fiber, the siding was installed over the fiber and it shut down my internet. Maynor's workers claimed innocence, but it was clearly something for which they were likely responsible. The fiber cable box was moved back into place, and when I got home the internet wasn't working any longer. This required ATT to come out and reinstall the fiber cable and box that came into my house from the outside. - Kitchen flooring fix. I have a very small special strip of (tiled) kitchen flooring that had to be removed during the remodel because I wanted a small portion of a wall removed. Years ago, this strip was created with very cool, colored, (intentionally) broken glass tiles. But, sadly those tiles are no longer available. Happily, I found some of the original kitchen tile that Maynor could break-up into pieces and install into the strip. I approved a change order for Maynor to fill-in that strip of flooring, which required some pretty major cutting of the floor and sub floor. However, they cut the floor crooked and at an unpleasing angle. And, while it is not terrible, it is very noticeable to me and I wish Maynor had done a better to cut the area straighter. I can live with it, but someday I will need to replace the entire kitchen floor to maintain the professional look. The Ugly - While I live in a populated area, with restaurants, a gas station, hotels, etc... workers, laboring in extremely hot summer conditions, even with lots of shade, require lots of hydration. Those fluids need to go somewhere! Unfortunately, there were at least two instances (likely more), I personally witnessed workers finding their own ways to relieve themselves - not inside my home, nor at the gas station just next door. I complained to Maynor and they promptly brought in, at their expense, a Porta Potty, which would remain for the duration of the project. But, I had to ask them to include and only after I discovered what was happening on my property. Ove..."

"I had several significant issues with my home that required a lot of work both inside and outside to address. Nu Look Home Service was tremendously helpful through all steps of the process. All their staff were professional, friendly, accessible, patient, and generous with their time to explain to me what they were going to, how they were going to do it, and why. Their workmanship and attention to detail was phenomenal."

"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!

"HOWEVER, he found a company in OH that could create a textured brick and then found a company in northern IN who came and hand stained every brick to match our existing brick.  If you didn't know our home had damage, you wouldn't be able to tell.  They did a beautiful job.  The reno took longer than I thought it would, but they had to find the brick and I know that was a chore. Plus to get on the schedule of the brick painters. Great workers and great job.  .

"Mike Seibert is the owner and we dealt directly with him. He is probably the best general contractor I have dealt with. He listens to what his customers want. He keeps in contact with his subcontractors to ensure his customer gets what they are wanting. If there are ever any problems with our older home that is found during the job, he ensures that the homeowner knows all of their options and what is going on. This is the second bathroom he has remodeled for us. Both jobs have gone fantastic and we would use him again."

"Water heater replacement was first on the agenda as not taking care of that immediately could have caused damage.  There was a little delay in acquiring the water heater because the big box store it was purchased from didn't ring it up correctly when I purchased it for later pickup.  It cost us a couple of hours of frustration but from what I could tell it didn't bother Brian too much.  Install went well.  A new ball valve and flexible supply lines were installed which should make the next water heater replacement go faster.
Demolition began and I realized that this job was going to have more of an impact on our daily retired lives that I had imagined.  This was not due to anything Brian and crew did - it was the first time I had hired someone to do more than two days' work.  It was a little dusty but not as bad as I had imagined.  Brian and Anthony did everything they could to keep things cleaned.  Anthony even ran the vacuum on multiple occasions and both Anthony and Brian dusted.  I can honestly say they treated my home as their own and I greatly appreciated it.  Are we going to clean more extensively - yes - but its spring cleaning time anyway.  The point is, I felt comfortable sleeping in our bedroom even with the demolition of our master bath.
The master bath was a bit less square than it could have been which caused Brian to ponder for some time exactly how to lay the tile for the best possible appearance.  The result was spectacular in my opinion.
On the fourth day we were actually seeing our new bathrooms come together and I was so pleased with their attention to detail.  It all looks great - better than I had imagined.
About this time it Brian brought in Shelly and that additional set of hands really started to make things happen.  Brian needed to excuse himself for a while to line up more future business so that made sense.  He was never gone long though and was there until the last (6th) day.
The crew was very polite and pleasant.  During some of the pauses in action I was happy to get to know them all better.  Even though I told them I was going to pressure wash the garage the day after finishing up the job, they swept up and hosed out the garage.  Its that type of consideration I and attention to detail I appreciate.
I already have plans for them to come out and replace all of my baseboards.  I expect I will have more jobs for them after than. 
I'll try to add pictures if I can figure out how.

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

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:

  • Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom

  • Replacing plumbing pipes

  • Installing or repairing septic systems

  • Running new electrical wiring

  • Installing a subpanel

Framing is often the most expensive phase of building a house because it’s time-consuming and requires a lot of materials. It costs between $20,000 and $50,000 on average, depending on materials and labor costs. Before construction begins, it’s possible that purchasing land is the priciest step in the process. Some plots of land sell for $3,000, while others cost upwards of $150,000.

While it’s never too early to start planning for a major home improvement project like a home addition, give yourself at least a month or two to plan and design your addition, find a contractor, and get the permits in order. For larger projects like a second-story addition that require designing with an architect, plan on three to four months of preparation.

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.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.
