"I took recommendations from friends and then came to Angie's List to check out the reviews. After taking bids, I decided on Prudential for my new furnace. Given how much money it was, I was more than a little nervous. I shouldn't have been because the service I got was really stellar. My old furnace was nearly 50 years old and huge, located in a tiny space. It had to be cut apart with a blow torch. The guys who did the job had to spend all day taking the old furnace out, which put them behind. The next day when it appeared I'd be without heat with a big temperature drop predicted, they worked extra hard and their boss even came over to help them so that I wouldn't have to leave my home that night. They were hard-working, professional, and friendly, and the price was competitive, matching or beating every bid I got. And the final product is working great!"

"I used Extreme Construction in April to clean up my gutters.  They did a wonderful job at that time.  I tried to use him again in the fall and I had a hard time reaching him.  When we finally touched base, we set up a time for him to come out to look at a possible job fixing my gutters and he never showed up.  Such a shame.  He was great the first time but didn't seem interested the second."

"We are generally very pleased with the end result.  The cost of the project was reasonable and the quality of subcontractors was excellent.  Workers most always showed up on schedule.  There were very few delays.  Concerns were usually addressed quickly. Our only disappointment was the quality of some items installed was sub par and had to be replaced."

"Todd was recommended by a friend of mine. I did not know him prior to. It took about 6-8 months to build due to the weather, but he built it in a timely manner. We love our house, very happy with it and have had no problems. He provides good customer service, he answered all my calls, if I had a concern he took care of it and I got a great deal at a great price. Now a year later, I know I cannot build this house for what I got it for. It is beautiful, it is definitely well above construction grade. He provided quality material, I have vaulted wood ceiling, I have real wood hardwood floors and the same type of wood on floor matches the ceiling. I know someone who built a home same time frame we did with a different contractor, same price but all different material. He got builders grade with linoleum Pergo floor, we got real wood flooring, he got siding and we got brick. We got exactly what we wanted out of it and for the right price. The wife and I are both very happy with the house and we would highly recommend him to others."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

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.

A construction-to-permanent loan is the most common type of mortgage used to finance a house teardown and rebuild. These loans include financing for construction costs and convert to a long-term mortgage once construction is complete. Check the terms of the loan closely before beginning work—there are often restrictions requiring you to use licensed contractors for all work.

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.

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
