"Before the build, they really did their homework. I was introduced to several of the subs and they met me on site several times. I could really trust that their bid was going to be accurate with no surprises. I cannot say the same for the other contractors I contacted. Once work began, they were very fast and kept to a tight schedule. Even when some trusses were damaged from a freak wind storm, the damage was corrected with a minimal delay. I would recommend them for any construction or renovation job. "

"Just received a bill of $370 for them to come into my home and break 1 of our 2 toilets as we had guests from out of town coming the next night to stay with us through the weekend. I was then informed it would cost $600 to fix what THEY broke and I would have to schedule another visit. I was not informed prior to them completing work there was a potential risk the toilet would be broken. They were invited in to diagnose a plumbing issue and did not bring the proper equipment to do so. They said they would diagnose the issue on the next scheduled visit to fix the toilet. I was considering spending thousands to work with McElroy's as I had HVAC and plumbing issues that needed addressed and annual servicing. On top of that, it has been two weeks since they visited and I have not received a quote for the plumbing or HVAC. Unbelievable this is how customers are treated and refused to make this right when I called."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

The average guest house is between 600 and 1,500 square feet. If you are unsure of how large you should build it, a good basic rule is to have one bedroom for every two occupants, at minimum. Generally, one bedroom for every one to two people is a good ratio. 

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.

This answer varies based on where you are, but most states require that all homes are greater than 320 square feet. Remember that four walls are not the only requirements—windows, closet space, minimal ceiling heights, and indoor air quality are also factors. Each state and municipality differs, though, and as some don’t consider tiny homes permanent shelters, you’ll need to check to ensure you aren’t violating any local or state laws with your build.

Due to the expansion of the tiny house movement, you can usually find tiny houses to buy in your state. Prices range considerably based on size, style, and type. If you’re looking for a tiny home that’s move-in ready, you may be able to find a good deal to buy or a prefab dealer near you. 

While a romantic getaway in a vacation treehouse may sound appealing, building one to live in year-round comes with more challenges. However, a growing number of people are adopting this small-scale living approach to appreciate an off-the-grid, private lifestyle. It allows you to feel closer to nature in a sustainable, customizable, minimalist, and eco-friendly way.
