"Marcio was very professional, I cannot recommend enough. It feels so good to know you have someone who stands behind their work and gives a fair price. We have completely renovated our home, and the roof was by far the least stressful part. My husband and I cannot recommend Grasso Construction more and will definitely be reaching out to work with them in the future."

"Working with Dan was an absolute pleasure. His work is top notch, he is prompt, professional, honest, and just an all around great guy. I received quotes from several roofers/contractors and no one else actually took the time to get on my roof and really take a good look at it. Dan came to my home and spent more time examining my roof, attic, house, etc than all the other roofers combined. He really spent the time to make sure he wasn't just throwing numbers at me while getting a very accurate idea of price, time, and depth of the job. I can absolutely recommend Dan and Mac Bros wholeheartedly."

"This is a follow-up review to the last one I wrote for this company, which wasn't too favorable. The owner was very concerned that I had a bad experience and gave me a complimentary day of painting with 3 painters. I almost couldn't believe it since my original service was a day with one painter, so I couldn't refuse even though I was apprehensive. It went much better this time. They listened to what I wanted, not just doing what they assumed I wanted. They worked 8 hours with a few short breaks. I can now say I am a satisfied customer and would consider using this company in the future.

"I hired Castillo Construction to do emergency repairs to my home after my neighbor's tree fell on it and caused major damage to the house and completely destroyed my garage. Unfortunately, this was the second time that the same tree had fallen on my house causing major damage. The first time, about half of the tree fell and my whole house was gutted. My first contractor was a crook and wasn't even finished with the renovations a year later when the rest of the tree fell. Having had such a horrible experience with my first contractor, I was very picky about who I would hire for this round of renovations and repairs. Alfonso and his team were very responsive with my inquiries for a site visit, estimate, and references. He was also understanding of the trouble I had been through over the last year and was willing to jump through all the hoops I put up to make sure that he was an honest contractor who wasn't trying to make a quick buck without doing the work. As soon as my insurance company issued the first check, his crew got to work. They replaced my roof, laid new wood floors throughout the entire house, repaired the ceiling in two rooms where the tree had come through, painted the interior rooms that had been damaged, rebuilt damaged kitchen cabinet, demolished and rebuilt the two-car garage and patio roof, upgrade electrical box to garage, repainted the exterior of the house, installed new gutters and downspouts, and replaced air conditioning compressor. I'm probably forgetting so many details about what was done. I'll just say that it was a lot of work and they completed it quickly and beautifully. My former contractor had left several things inside the house unfinished such as no window sills on several windows and tile missing in the bathroom or incorrectly installed. I was going to have to pay out of pocket to get these things taken care of since I was fighting with my old contractor over what he owed me. When I asked Alfonso for an estimate to complete this work while they were doing all the other repairs, he told me not to worry about it. He finished all of the unfinished items in the house without asking for a dime. It wasn't a lot of work but he sympathized with my situation he saved me several hundred dollars instead of taking advantage. His crews were always extremely polite and answered any questions I had about what they were doing. They also kept a very clean work site, making sure that all materials and tools were put away and organized every day before they left for the day. Even when Alfonso and I had a disagreement about the air compressor that was installed, he was willing to bend to what I wanted, and what had originally been agreed upon, at a financial loss to himself in order to make things right with the customer. After having been through the ringer over the last year and a half, it was refreshing to have a contractor who was honest and didn't try to take advantage of a woman navigating in a largely male-dominated field."

"They were fabulous! They had good customer service. The salesman did a good job of presenting the option and it was not high pressure. The crew that actually came out to install the windows did a really good job. There were 2 of them and they took out 18 old windows and replaced them within 4 hours. They cleaned up after they were done, as well. They were very pleasant!"

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

Construction typically takes 3-6 months, including site preparation and assembly.

Builder-grade is one of two types of stock cabinets, whereas semi-custom designs allow homeowners some control over the color, finish, or hardware on their cabinets. Stock cabinets are sold in construction-grade and builder-grade designs. Construction-grade cabinets are usually made from inexpensive medium-density fiberboard, which is prone to moisture damage, whereas builder-grade models are a step up with higher-quality materials. Construction-grade designs are the most common type of cabinets in America.

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.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

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.
