"Instead of replacing our 15 year old deck, we decided to add a sunroom. Found DDR through the “Lexington” SubReddit and couldn’t be happier with the result. Here’s the quick breakdown of the process we went through (as far as I can tell, this is the typical flow of things): QUOTE/CONSULT: Submitted request for a quote on their website, was contacted next day by their office and scheduled a quote later that week. I should point out that they were very accommodating with this appointment—the gentleman (Mr. Painter if I recall) agreed to arrive around 5:30pm and stayed until 7:30pm. He took some measurements, and we discussed the details (size, design elements) of we were looking for. It was really helpful to look at all the pictures of other DDR projects that he had with him. He drew up the contract that evening and told us they’d love to do it if we wanted to move forward. We secured financing through our bank (instead of one of their lenders), so we asked for some time to get that set up, and they said no problem. DESIGNS AND PAPERWORK: One huge advantage of working with DDR was that they dealt directly with our HOA and the city inspectors. The DDR staff navigated those treacherous waters quickly and efficiently—other folks in our neighborhood decided to build an addition themselves and it took almost a year to get all the plans approved by HOA. Really glad we didn’t have to deal with that kind of headache. COMMUNICATION: Can’t stress enough how much the project managers communicate with you. We had Kyle as our PM and he was awesome! Before the project began, he called me up and we chatted for an hour about how the project would flow, expectations/timelines, etc… Given that everyone in the construction/remodeling business was dealing with material shortages, it was great to discuss the possible challenges of this project up front. In the end we were fortunate to have very little delay (had to wait on windows but wasn’t more than a few days). CLEARING OLD DECK: The tear down crew was very efficient and had the deck torn down and removed (with help from clean-up crew) in about a day and a half. CONSTRUCTION OF SUNROOM: The construction process is a bit of a blur—it all happened so fast! The framing of the room was done in what seemed like a day or two, and from there it was a matter of getting electricians in to wire the room and install PTAC unit, get the insulation poured and drywall put up, and then finally the windows and door installed. We chose a beadboard ceiling and they installed it perfectly. Start to finish was in the predicted range of 8-10 weeks (had to wait a few days for windows to show up). Was the crew at our house every day? No, but each day I got an email from Kyle at 7am saying “Hey, we will/will not be at your place today”, which was a nice heads up. MISCELLANEOUS: had a small landing porch and stairs built off of sunroom—DDR used screws instead of nails, which means we don’t have to worry about nail heads popping up in a few years (this was a major problem with the old deck); even though DDR doesn’t install flooring or paint additions, Kyle was kind enough to send me a list of pros he’s worked with before and someone off that list painted the new room for us; in terms of price, every addition will be different, but we priced several companies for this job and DDR was definitely the best offer because they had a solid reputation AND they were local (we didn’t want a national company who just gave everything to subcontractors). OVERALL IMPRESSION: this was our first home addition, and we couldn’t be happier with the final product. It looks great from the inside and the outside! We just had some family visiting from out of town and they spent almost the entire weekend in the sunroom because it is so nice. Final product was a 12x18 sunroom with side deck, landing, and stairs."

Bob made sure that his crew delivered quality work and if at any time the work did not meet his expectations, he had them fix it. The work was completed in a timely manner and they worked around weather conditions to keep the process moving. Honestly we cannot say enough good about our experience. Highly recommend."

"During the estimate, we were advised the work would not be a problem but it ultimately proved to be an issue for Richard. They were quick & efficient at busting up old blacktop to construct new patio. However, he decided to have concrete delivered on one of the hottest days of the summer which caused the concrete to set too quickly. We're left with a bigger mess than what we started with. Not only is our new patio a complete waste, but we've had to pressure wash our house to try and remove the concrete that was slopped all over the siding (some of which was just replaced). Richard's team left our backyard in shambles...covered in tools, garbage, and two large piles of wasted concrete that rendered my driveway useless for over a month. We were told he would stop by to at least clean up his mess, but he only stopped by to pick up his tools. My husband/cousin had to bust up the concrete piles with sledgehammers. Richard was apologetic at first and seemed eager to make it right. However, two months later and he's made no attempt to correct his poor work. We have to get someone else to come in and bust up his bad pour and start from scratch. Lots of energy, time, and money wasted. We do not recommend at all."

Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
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.
The pros and cons or advantages and disadvantages of building a new house include:
Pros:
It’s all new, so you should have several years before you need to pay for major repairs like a new roof.
It’s under warranty, so many fixes within that warranty period should be covered.
You get to build the house to your specifications.
Cons:
You have to make a LOT of decisions.
You will almost certainly deal with building delays.
It can take a lot of work to stay within your budget.
Building can be more expensive than buying an existing house.
The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.
Hiring a contractor to build your home is a big commitment. So be sure to ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective home builder:
How many years of experience do you have?
Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
Do you have worker’s compensation?
How long have you worked with your subcontractors?
How do you handle garbage and waste disposal?
Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Do you give free estimates?
Do you offer design services?
How do you handle change orders?
Can you provide at least three references?
Can I see some of the work you’ve done?
