"In late June we found out we needed to replace our deck due to structural issues. We were having a huge party on 7/7 so it had to be done. We met with the representative from Appelman and found him to be knowledgeable and helpful. We gave him our totally unrealistic time limit. He didn't promise to meet it and we appreciated his honesty. The bid presented was for labor only and we had to purchase the supplies on our own. Never having built anything we did have to struggle as we had no idea what or how many components we would need. Everything had to be special ordered as we were building a Trex deck. This also cost us time waiting for deliveries. The builders were amazing. They worked through storms and oppressive heat to try to complete the job for us. One of the workers actually suffered from heat exhaustion one day. The main builder was Steve Beck. I can't say enough about him. He not only worked through the heat and the thunderstorms, he stayed until 9PM a couple times and even gave up his Fourth of July to get the deck to a usable condition. He is old school and believes if a job is worth doing it should be done right. If you can get him to work on your project you are sure to be totally satisfied. The deck was completed yesterday, 8/18 but it was absolutely usable for the party. Steve Beck did a fantastic job. The only negative of our experience was this.....it is clearly stated on the bid that the final payment is not due until the job is completed to the customer's satisfaction. Several weeks before completion I was persuaded to submit the final check. I know, my fault. I gave the check based on the PROMISE that it would not be cashed until completion of the job. I even mentioned that if for some reason the check was going to be cashed early I needed to know so I could transfer funds into my checking account to cover it. I guess you see where this is going. The check was cashed without my knowledge. Fortunately I have a friend who works at my bank and I was advised that I was overdrawn by a couple thousand dollars. If not for her all of my payments for the month, insurance, utilities, credit cards, etc. would have bounced. I would recommend Appelman in the future because the work was top notch but I would recommend holding that final payment until the job is done."

",After interviewing several well-known custom builders (several of whom advertise "custom homes on your lot") we were fortunate to have been given the name Potter House Group.  The President of Potter House Group met with us personally and we presented him with a situation that other custom builders who wanted to charge us up to 50% more than Potter House Group. 
Our situation was that lightning struck our custom home and it had to be razed with the exception of the concrete foundation and garage floor. After an initial meeting to review our plans, site, special conditions and consideration for the level of input we desired, Lee calculated an estimate that was realistic, detailed and SIGNIFICANTLY less than the other big name builders we interviewed.
Rebuilding a new custom home in our Township involved a maze of obstacles and required significant expertise in dealing with permits, blueprints, township meetings, neighbors, rules and of course building inspections and sub-contractors.  Lee navigated all the obstacles with expertise and professionalism.
With the help of Potter House Group and its President, Lee M. Rickey, we moved into our home that met more than all of our requirements due to the knowledge and integrity of our builder.  No substandard materials or workmanship was allowed, the process was professionally monitored and we now have the home of our dreams without breaking the bank!
We highly recommend Potter House Group and Lee M. Rickey to anyone interested in honesty, timeliness, quality, professionalism and integrity. You cannot go wrong with Potter House Group and its owner Lee M. Rickey.

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

It usually takes around four to six months to build and install a modular home, although your timeline could go up to around eight months if there are delays in the manufacturing or permitting process. Heavy site preparation and foundation pouring can extend that timeline if you need them, as can customizations you want for your modular home. Your modular home company should be able to provide an estimate for the construction timeline before you sign any contracts or agree to any work.

Modular homes are more affordable than stick-built homes if you keep quality and square footage equal. The cost to build a home averages $323,000, while average modular home prices sit at {AvgCost}. If you’re looking for custom or luxury options, a traditional custom home costs $825,000, while a high-end modular home costs $600,000, on average.

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.

No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.

Most cottages are around 1,000 square feet, making them smaller than most other styles. However, cottages are defined more by their decor and architectural focus on simplicity, functionality, and a connection to nature than they are by a rigid square footage or floor plan. While cottages are defined more by their charm and appearance than size, the smaller footprint does help maximize the comfort and charm, and it keeps the focus on connection to nature and family.
