""Handymen" only begins to describe Wayne's capabilities. While repairing exterior trim on my house, I discovered that two carrying beams had been compromised and required repair/replacement. Wayne identified the cause of the problem (improper repair done years before by a different contractor) and remediated both issues. In so many ways, he proved to be a valuable and trusted resource. He is knowledgeable, careful, and practical, fully explaining the problem and describing my options. Pricing was very fair and importantly, he showed up when he said he would, worked full days, and stayed on the job until its completion. We could not have been more satisfied."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Check reviews, compare quotes, and verify licensing. Ensure the builder has experience with modular construction.

Builder-grade is one of two types of stock cabinets, whereas semi-custom designs allow homeowners some control over the color, finish, or hardware on their cabinets. Stock cabinets are sold in construction-grade and builder-grade designs. Construction-grade cabinets are usually made from inexpensive medium-density fiberboard, which is prone to moisture damage, whereas builder-grade models are a step up with higher-quality materials. Construction-grade designs are the most common type of cabinets in America.
