"Working with MV Design Build surpassed our expectations. We originally only intended to ask an architect to give us ideas and cost estimates on work to our home; instead, Megan took the time to meet us at our home, listen to our ideas, and turned them into drawings and plans, giving us the confidence and details needed to someday turn those ideas into reality. If/when we decide to begin work, we'll be looking for her to help us shepherd us through the rest of the project. Enthusiastically encourage anyone to give her a call."

"Simply put, hiring Insurance Claims Specialist, LLC was one of the most important decisions we made in getting our roof damage resolved. We are responsible homeowners with a strong track record of maintaining our house and property, as well as making sure we have proper insurance coverage. But when weather damaged our roof and our insurance provider denied our claim, we found ourselves in uncharted territory. The process with the insurance provider was daunting, confusing, lengthy, stressful, and not transparent. We were kept at arms length and passed through multiple reviewers. They sent a third-party engineer who showed up unannounced, spent very little time inspecting the damage, and then submitted a report that had numerous factual errors. That report then became a baseline for the insurance company! We were buried in red tape and going in circles. Wayne was able to quickly step in and, using his extensive expertise and knowledge of the regulations and insurance process, got right to the point. As a respected, experienced adjuster, his analysis and steadfast conclusions carried weight. In what could have been a disputed claim that may have taken years to resolve, he cut through the red tape and was able to resolve the matter in our favor within months. In a world where home owners are kept at arms length and treated with skepticism, Wayne was treated with respect as a knowledgeable expert whose views were grounded in experience. When he spoke, people listened. Wayne was very candid and responsive to us. He kept us out of the process details and acted as our representative, while keeping us appropriately informed. He made the process much less stressful! He got the right people to listen and move forward with the right decision. Again, one of the best decisions we’ve made. We highly recommend Insurance Claims Specialist, LLC without reservation."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits. 

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.

Shipping container homes last at least 25 years on average, but they can last even longer with proper maintenance. Since shipping containers are made from metal, they’re quite vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This issue is exacerbated in coastal areas or areas with a lot of precipitation. To extend the life span of your container home, install siding that protects the exterior. 

The average cost to build a modular home is around $270,000, and most modular homes total between $180,000 and $360,000. Of course, this price varies significantly by location, and the price tends to follow the cost of living in the area. There are quite a few other factors at play that can affect your pricing, including the following:

  • Number of bedrooms and bathrooms

  • Site preparation, including land clearing and leveling

  • Type of foundation

  • Utility connections

  • Cost of building permits
