"I can’t recommend Kennon Crockett, P.E. enough. He’s been an incredible help through a really stressful situation with my home’s foundation and a city-side sewer line issue. From the start, he was thorough, professional, and honest — helping me avoid getting taken advantage of by a plumbing company and instead understand the real cause. He prepared a detailed, sealed inspection report and has continued to guide me step-by-step on how to get the city involved for proper repairs. He’s also been consistently communicative and genuinely invested in helping homeowners. I’ve already recommended him to coworkers and friends — and funny enough, my dad had him help years ago after Hurricane Ida which won me brownie points once he heard Crockett. That says a lot. If you want an engineer who’s knowledgeable, ethical, and truly cares about his clients, Kennon is your guy."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Building a house without blueprints is not advised. It will prevent you from obtaining necessary building permits and meeting building codes and is likely to result in shoddy construction and unsafe living conditions. Detailed blueprints ensure that a house is built to exact specifications and is constructed safely and structurally stable.

Yes, modular homes offer a wide range of customization options for layout, finishes, and features.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

Yes, a home builder should have a builder’s license and insurance. States have different requirements for builder’s licensing and certifications. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review your local home builder licensing guidelines.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Certified” badge. Angi Certified businesses meet our standards for certification, which include:

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

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.
