"Pierre Construction demo'd an existing porch and replaced it with a covered farmers porch, removed an existing exterior door and replaced with a picture window, replaced 8 double hung windows, and resided our home, and we can't speak any more highly of Dave and his crew. They were a pleasure to work with, do extremely high quality work, are extremely creative and talented, and are open minded and reassuring in the project. The communication and follow through was great throughout the entire project. I would highly recommend Dave to anyone and wouldn't think twice of using him again for anything as small as a minor repair to something as substantial as a full remodel/new build."

"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."
"The work did by Vista Home Improvements turned my 30+-year-old house back into a home I looked forward to showing others. The planning stage was painless and professional. Brian was incredible to work with and had a great deal of knowledge on choosing the right materials and colors that were perfect for my house. The work started soon after meeting with Brian. The work was done in a timely manner and the workers were efficient and took care of my yard. I love how my house looks now!"
"I’ve hired Tyrell to do several jobs in two different homes. He installed crown molding, a chair rail, built and installed shelves, patched walls, installed a garbage disposal, installed windows, built a pan display, painted and completed other projects. Tyrell was professional, did excellent work and was reasonably priced. I would hire him again without hesitation! (I put $100 in the price because he’s done many different jobs.)"
"The service turned out well. They were prompt. They were courteous. They did not leave a mess; that was nice. The price was very good because I have a very big house."
"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."
Hiring a reliable home builder is an essential task, but there are a few questions you can ask a potential builder to ensure you they are trustworthy and up to the task:
How long do you expect the process to take?
Are you fully licensed and insured?
How much of the work will you subcontract?
Will you pull all of the necessary permits for the job?
How long is the builder’s warranty you include with your work?
How do you handle resolution for issues I might have with the finished product?
How much experience do you have?
Handypeople usually don’t hold trade licenses, so they typically aren’t qualified to tackle projects involving installing or making alterations to plumbing or electrical lines. Below are some jobs that a handyperson usually won’t be able to complete:
Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom
Replacing plumbing pipes
Installing or repairing septic systems
Running new electrical wiring
Installing a subpanel
While many different factors determine whether a house is classified as a villa, many villas are detached homes with a European design influence, often with an emphasis on luxury and comfort. Modern villas often feature outdoor spaces such as terraces, gardens, or patios.
One of the best ways to negotiate with a homebuilder is to forgo price reductions. Instead, negotiate over upgrades and incentives, as many builders are more willing to go down that road than to decrease their own fee. Even if they were willing to take a cut, a reputable homebuilder often knows their worth, so a willingness to negotiate could be a red flag. Beyond that, builders are typically willing to negotiate closing costs instead of offering a discount on the base price.
A contractor can install your shipping container home in as little as 90 days. This is notably quick compared to a traditional home build, which can take more than a year (providing there aren’t permitting or construction delays that make the wait even longer). For the quickest installation, choose a prefab container home.
