"I am coming here to say that a series of unfortunate events happened to me and my husband. Do not for any reason build your home with Expert Builders LLC. Also known as Joe Troyer. We had the worst experience when building with them. This builder is a liar and one of the most disrespectful Builders to work with. We spent so much time saving and putting down $40,000 for this home. We signed a contract for a certain amount and we were aware that because of our septic cost, we were going to have to cut on a few things in the home. Which it only ended up being our insulation and drywall in our garage which he told us, that ended up being a lie. We signed the contract with then having those things removed. Fast-forward, I had asked my builder if there was any reason I could buy certain things for the home and just get reimbursed for those things and he said yes because the budget was bigger than what I needed for me to find those items and I’d rather use some money towards other things. later on we find out, he never included our countertops and told us that we had to pay for them out-of-pocket in that cost was on us($4,700), even though we were on agreement that this was a move-in ready home. We then later on started having issue after issue with our flooring in which he continued to do a bad job and put wood filler on every broken piece or in between the flooring that had gaps. We also had an issue with our gas and electric line being in the same line and we told him that we did not like that because we felt that it was unsafe with also having three children in the home. I had texted him over a total of 10 times through three months and he still had yet to come out so we ended up having to do electrical through our roof and had to change up our home because he never came out and fixed the job when he should have. While this was going on, we still had multiple issues with the flooring and to this day we still have flooring issues, pieces are chipped, and he put in transition pieces in random places, which some pieces he even stuck on with gorilla glue. He ended up asking if we could move dirt for him and he would pay us so we could put in our driveway that weekend because he really wanted us to have it done in which we had to spend $500 to rent machinery so we could get it done that weekend for him . Later on someone in his crew ended up, hitting our mailbox and smashing both sides of our culvert pipe and told us that it wasn’t his problem. He installed my hood range incorrectly, and I sent him proof and he still decided to tell me that that wasn’t his problem and I had to deal with it. Noy only that did the crappiest job installing it and our roof looks like crap. He left a gap between our siding and roof, then sat there and told me that it’s a good thing rain doesn’t go upwards. He also ended up putting a textured ceiling which I had told him that we did not ask for a textured ceiling we asked for a smooth ceiling in which he did not believe me and asked me for proof Which I provided and proved him wrong. At one point before we moved into our home a piece of our brick siding came off and I mentioned it to him. I told him I thought it was unfair that we had crappy flooring and now our siding is falling off before we have even moved into the home in which he decided to reply with a very crappy email mentioning to me that he would also be charging me an extra $11,500 because I am an ungrateful client. (Hes literally crazy)This man has been one of the worst people to work with. Almost every corner of our home has cracked drywall and around every window. None of our trim was finished or sealed. We have one of the most half assed homes, and all he did was offer $2000. My husband also works at our roofing siding company, which saved us a huge amount of money and we were supposed to be reimbursed that but when it came on time for us to be reimbursed, he decided that he actually wasn’t going to reimburse us for everything and he could only give us a certain amount. He kept every dollar that was supposed to be returned to us and kept it for himself. I will be reporting him to the Better Business Bureau and I just really hope that this never happens to anyone else. This man still should owe us money from moving the dirt, saving money on items and for our mailbox and culvert pipe, he smashed and broke. we also never had our chicken foot design put onto the side of our home, this man has taken so many things from our home throughout the process and would get upset at me for asking him why they weren’t put into the home. He also ended up lying to us about having an inspection done, which me and my husband ended deciding to pay to get one ourselves and found out many things in the home weren’t even up to code. And if you’re asking, why aren’t you taking him to court?, We were going to, we have proof of everything but our lawyer gave us an estimate of around two years in court, in which we have three kids, and we can no longer wait for our home and be living with other people. He has no idea what he is doing and I wouldn’t trust this man to build a shed."

We can handle all your construction needs from basement remodeling, additions, new home builds, bathroom remodels to kitchen overhauls. We handle a variety of small jobs as well. Check us out on Facebook or at our website and Brawnybuilders.com see how we might be able to help you.

"Homeowner here... I can't properly explain how absolutely thrilled we are with the work that Bronson and the Brawny Builders have done with our lake cottage. Last summer, we started with a plan to simply paint the exterior. But the project slowly unfolded into something much larger. Bronson is not just a general contractor - he became a close and trusted partner throughout the entire project. He is full of creative and thoughtful ideas that enhanced the project at every step. He provided us with constant and detailed communication. His team worked with us to make sure that every detail was right. Here are a couple of examples where Bronson was able to improve the design or save cost: ** We did not want to expand the footprint of the house and add that cost, but we could not figure out how to layout everything we wanted. Bronson cleverly reused an old set of concrete stairs as the foundation for a washer/dryer stack. It was a great solution that worked out fantastic. ** We had wanted to add a half bath for years, but Bronson figured out a way to add a FULL bath. In addition, the new bathroom was connected (jack and jill style) to the main bedroom to create a master suite. It only cost one additional door, but it is now WAY beyond what we imagined. ** We originally wanted to build a deck on the front of the house, but Bronson helped to create a design for a covered porch with vaulted ceilings and a clever lower surround that blended with the lake environment. ** We found a number of structural issues with the old house during demolition. Bronson developed very clever and cost-effective ways to resolve floor, wall and joist issues. ** During each phase of the construction, Bronson developed thoughtful and clever touches. The lofted garage included an old second floor door for ventilation, and Bronson designed a design the new door that retained some of the prior feeling with a new and fresh update. ** We wanted to retain some of the historical feel to the interior, and Bronson cleverly retained some of the original paneling without feeling overwhelming. He framed the wall to make it a focal point without looking old. It is one of my favorite parts of the house. The lake cottage has been in our extended family for almost 50 years. It has been a great retreat for us, but it is now a proper home with personality and functionality to match. This project has literally transformed the house. We would highly recommend Bronson and Brawny Builders for any remodeling project. We were lucky to find them."

Design/manufacture mantles/fireplaces or whatever the customer desires... you dream it, I create it! I don't compete, I am the competition! In business for 10 years, 18 years experience

"Joseph and his crew were very professional. They kept the work area clean and free of debris. They did a phenomenal job replacing my 65 years old siding. I would highly recommend them. They also had the best price of the estimates I obtained. Thank you Joseph. I will definitely use them for future projects."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Prefab kits like a small sunroom for around $20,000 or even a basic gazebo roof for as little as $60 can save you big over professional installation. However, you lose the option for customization, and these structures tend not to last nearly as long. As for bigger projects like a deck or patio, you shouldn’t go with the DIY route unless you’re fully prepped with the tools and know-how to get it done right. Mistakes can be frustrating and costly, so choose a pro if you’re looking to eliminate your risk of error.

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.

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. 

Complex plumbing is tricky and expensive in an off-the-ground dwelling like this. By considering options like composting toilets, rainwater collection, and gray-water sinks, you save money and help the environment. 

Most cottage builds take between six months and one year from planning to completion. The timeline includes design, permitting, site prep, construction, and finishing work.
