"We were so pleased with the results. We had a complete home renovation. Al was so kind and not only listened, but homored our requests. He worked with us on the details of our plans. It was not your typical home reno as Al had to correct all of the work of a prior contractor. Al was reassuring and not only delivered on his promises, but produced such quality workmanship. The same goes for those he contracts with especially the painters. We have been living in our home now for two years and it's exactly as he promised: it feels like home, a place we always want to come back to. Thanks Al."

"Went great. The piece of exposed ledge was a real issue for other contractors, but Mike was able to successful remove it and lay down asphalt. Also suggested other items such as laying pipe that I would not have thought of. Would totally use him again if a need arose."

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"I was very pleased with Bolivar and his crew. This was my first time working with a contractor on a project of my own and he could not have been more helpful or accommodating. We spent multiple hours scoping the project and choosing materials together and he was quick to provide advice when I was stuck. I was initially nervous that I would be away during the bulk of the project, but Bolivar proved to need little guidance and consistently kept me updated on the progress. Bolivar's quality of work and attention to detail exceeded my recommendations and he finished the project in a timely fashion. I would hire him again without hesitation."

"Claudio came over to my house to initially check out the workplace and see what I wanted to be done. We agreed upon a price, date and time to start the project. Claudio returned to my house on 6/27/2014 on time at 8 a.m. with two of his workers. They remained at my house until the job was professionally completed. They cleaned up the workplace when the job was finished. There were no hidden fees and Claudio and his workers made the entire process work for not only my budget but also my schedule and time. I would highly recommend Finish Master as I will be using them again in the future.

"Caseri Construction put a picture window in my first home. Several years later we hired Dan Caseri to build our new home. When it came apparent we needed our deck replaced we of course, called Caseri Construction. Caseri Construction shows up when they say they will, has fair honest prices , and they do top quality work. I highly recommend Caseri Construction for whatever size job you are looking to have done."

"Scott and his crew demolished a rotted portion of our old deck and built a beautiful new mahogany deck.  Our deck plan was somewhat unique but Scott's carpenters handled it with aplomb and professionalism.

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

There are energy-efficient options when building a cottage. Select green building materials, high-performance insulation, and energy-efficient windows when designing your cottage. Options such as solar panels, efficient HVAC systems, and LED lighting can lower your utility bills and reduce your environmental impact. Many builders offer energy-efficient upgrades as part of the design process.

Local regulations dictate how big an ADU can be, and there may also be restrictions on the percentage of the main residence’s square footage an ADU can have. In most cases, an ADU must be smaller than the main residence, but check with your local building authority to confirm restrictions on ADU size.

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.

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.

How long it takes to build a custom home or rebuild a home after a disaster varies depending on many factors, but averages between seven and 14 months. Smaller homes or homes that don’t need a re-poured foundation may take less time to build than larger homes or homes without an existing foundation. Material availability, contractor schedules, and permit and inspection timelines can all affect how long your house takes to build.
