"After our fire, I couldn't find anyone willing to recommend a contractor so I turned to Angie's List and picked NE Renovations. I couldn't be happier with our choice. NE Renovations is everything I hoped for in a contractor, and more. Richard and the crew have been delightful to work with. Communication has been easy, estimates accurate, and when a problem arose - the plywood under one of the roofs was rotted - they gave us choices for fixing it. Everything is up front, no surprises. The crew arrived every day as promised and worked full days. And they are nice guys - polite, considerate of our home and dogs. Again tidiness was big. I would absolutely use NE Renovations again, and happily recommend them to friends. They made our house look beautiful!"

"Harold did an excellent job rebuilding my porch after a previous contractor was a disaster (didn’t pull a permit, porch was not to code, looked horrendous). Harold had to rebuild the porch from scratch and now it looks amazing. He’s great to work with - professional, thorough, and customer focused."

"The technician did an excellent job. It did take a while to get the repair finished, but that was due to Bertazzoni delivering the parts. I have had multiple problems with this particular appliance. My range now works better than it did when new, but I have a feeling that even if I have continuing problems with it, American Home Shield will just repair rather than replace due to the cost of the range. By the way, I'm not exactly sure of the date of the repair."

"Brandon’s roofing and construction company was immensely helpful with the inspection on my property. They were quick to get someone out to look at the home I was purchasing and at a time convenient to my realtor and I. Brandon acted professionally and considerately and was able to meet all my property needs. I have been happily living in this home a few months now and have Brandon to thank. Thank you Brandon’s roofing and construction!"

Home Building questions, answered by experts

It is a good idea to check in with your local city and state regulations before committing to building a shipping container home no matter where you live. This concept is pretty new across the country, and many places won’t let you build one.

The International Code Council (ICC) offers guidelines for home builders on the safe use of ISO intermodal shipping containers repurposed as building components, which can be helpful to review when planning or designing a shipping container home.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

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

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.

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.
