"Finding a builder who can take your idea (aka Dream) and make it a reality is not easy. Norman Builders created a house for me that exceeded my expectations. Ryan Norman provided me direction before the existing house demolition started. He connected me with others needed for pre-build items. Norman Builders then built exactly what was designed on paper. What sets Norman Builders apart from others is their communication and commitment to understanding what the customer wants. Ryan and his assistant Collin were always available and communicated at every milestone along the way. There was never a time I did not know what was going on or what I needed to decide. The contractors they use are highly professional and care about their part of the build. I love my new house! I highly recommend them and appreciate all Ryan and his team did for me."

"We had a very small roof area need to be repaired. I sent request to multiple company to give a service quote. Few of them sent me replies and stated that they are too busy to come. Matt of MMP Consturction's contacted me promptly, scheduled an on-site visit and gave us a quote right away. The work was then scheduled and finished quickly. Matt did great job on reaching out, effective communication, and always arriving on-time. He also gave an evaluation on our roof condition. Also, Eric and Don did excellent job on finishing the project. They are all very polite, knowledgeable, and showed their professionalism. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Matt and his crew. We are very grateful for having them arriving on-time before the winter storm to prevent potential damage of the house. From their react, we see a warm heart. No job is big or small, all jobs are equally important. Understanding the difficulties of others, for the people, been appreciated by the people. Thank you again for your high quality service. We definitively recommend MMP Construction Inc. to anyone for any related home project."

"This was our second time using Sean and his team at Szecon Development for home construction. The first time was in 2009 when he did a custom build for our brand new home. The quality and craftsmanship surpasssed our expectations. Sean does not cut corners! When we bought our seasonal home 17 years later, which needed a "down to the studs" remodel, Sean was our first call. He and his team are doing a fabulous job, and frankly we wouldn't have trusted anyone else to do the job. Highly recommend this company, top quality results!"

"Sentri Homes provided the most professional flooring service I’ve ever had. The LVP installation turned out absolutely beautiful, and I was amazed at how quickly everything was completed without sacrificing quality. The crew was fast, accurate, and extremely detail-oriented from start to finish. Everything was installed cleanly, precisely, and with real craftsmanship. The entire process was smooth, efficient, and far beyond what I expected. I would absolutely recommend Sentri Homes to anyone needing flooring installed."

"Jason and his team were both knowledgeable and personable. They assisted with many stages in the project from minor demolition, subfloor installation, window installation, door installation, cabinet installation, framing, and misc carpentry. My favorite part about working with Renovate was their flexibility. They were able to accommodate my tight timeline and budget needs. I would absolutely recommend them to friends and family and will use them in the future."

"I needed most of the inside of my home painted, with the exception of one bedroom, which I had recently painted myself. I'm not young anymore and also didn't have the time to tackle such a large project. My house is huge and over 100 years old. I had the business card for Finish Master Painting and Refinishing in my wallet for the longest time...I don't even remember where I picked it up. I gave them a call and Claudio (the owner of the company) came over and gave a very reasonable estimate. He and his staff finished the painting job and also replaced five of my old, drafty windows in just a few days as promised. The workmanship was excellent! I thought I did such a professional job on the one bedroom I had painted, but when I saw their work, I realized that I'm just an amateur. And no more drafty windows! I couldn't be more pleased. One of the many things that impressed me was the minimal disruption. I think that was one of the reasons I put off having work done for so long. I expected a mess; people and things in the way, lots of noise. But that didn't happen. I was actually still able to comfortably live in my house while they transformed it. Hey, that's a pretty neat trick! They were like home construction magicians. I highly recommend Finish Master Painting and Refinishing, and won't hesitate to call them again should the need arise."

"Mr. Feliciano is very clear in his communication and takes great care in his work. He plans carefully, too. He addressed a foundation issue in my house. He left with a very high quality, expertly prepared solution. He meets his commitments and is easy to work with. He charges a fair price, too. I would easily work with him again."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Renovating or remodeling an existing structure is usually less expensive than the cost to build a new house. That’s because you can save on the costs of new building materials, laying a foundation, framing the entire building, and installing new materials and utilities throughout the house. However, if a home is in very poor condition or is incredibly old, you could spend more on upgrades and restoration compared to building from scratch.

It pays to hire a project manager or general contractor when you have a large-scale project that will take over a week to complete, especially when it involves structural changes and multiple subcontractors. This includes hiring a general contractor to build a house, add an extension, or manage other projects that need a building permit.

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

A carriage house is a freestanding building, while a townhouse is connected to other units. A townhouse is a full single-family home and typically shares a parcel of land with other connected homes. A carriage house is rarely used as the sole single-family home on a property and is most often an additional building sharing property with a traditional single-family home. 

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.
