Q: Is it less expensive to renovate or build a new house?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/renovate-vs-remodel.htm">Renovating or remodeling</a> an existing structure is usually less expensive than the cost to build a new house. That&rsquo;s because you can save on the costs of new building materials, laying a foundation, framing the entire building, and installing new materials and utilities throughout the house. However, if a home is in very poor condition or is incredibly old, you could spend more on upgrades and restoration compared to building from scratch. </p></div>

Q: Can you frame a house by yourself?

• <div><p>While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/building-vs-buying-house.htm">buying or building a house</a> with the guidance of professionals.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to construct a shipping container home?

• <div><p>A contractor can install your shipping container home in as little as 90 days. This is notably quick compared to a traditional home build, which can take more than a year (providing there aren&rsquo;t permitting or construction delays that make the wait even longer). For the quickest installation, choose a prefab container home.</p></div>

Q: Why are houses built with crawl spaces?

• <div><p>The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They&rsquo;re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they&rsquo;re at less of a risk of freezing.</p></div>

They are very knowledgeable about land jobs! I had trails cut and they did a great job. I am having them build a small pond for my horses. They are experienced with that as well. Then they are putting up a boarder wood fence on my small farm. So yes, I like and trust them!
