"I can't overstate the quality of the work these folks did. We had our unfinished attic converted to living space, and the space had a lot of funky angles and old framing. G.A. Doughty's team did an incredible job making it work, including a half-bath! We're very pleased with the result. Everyone at G.A., the project manager, office staff, and all the subcontractors were very polite and fun to work with. Everyone who came to the house was very friendly. The only issue we had was that for a few months during the middle of the project, things seemed to stall out for about 6-8 weeks. I think they were having some availability issues with subcontractors and were overloaded from other projects."

"NE Renovations is a general contractor whose network of contractors provided services to me as I was getting ready to sell the house.  The electrical service went very well with Mr. Martucci doing great work and advising me about things that did not need to be done.  I feel that he was a great advisor!
The flooring in the basement also went very well with the NE folks advising me about the best way to approach the installation.  Everything was perfect when they left.  I truly appreciated their workmanship.

"We hired Nathan Chesebro to replace the roof, replace existing skylights and build two dormers on our home in Bristol, Maine. Nathan and Matt are professional craftsmen that do exceptionally good work. The work was done in a timely fashion, on budget and with superior quality work. We had several small items that required carpentry skills. Nathan took care of these items for us too. We plan to remodel our home's kitchen in the very near future, and have already discussed this with Nathan. We also have a "punch list" of items that we will have Nathan complete for us."

"We did hire this business and they did a good job. They miscalculated a bit on price and we aren't totally sure the areas around the chimney are fixed (we need a hard rain). The workers were excellent, worked hard and long hours, never bothered us at all and cleaned up very well after themselves."

"JT is an experienced, reliable carpenter who shows up ready to work. He is very creative, has amazing ideas, and has superior craftsmanship. I hired him to build a guesthouse at our home in Boothbay Harbor. JT and his crew arrived on time, communicated clearly throughout the process, and stayed within our budget. Most importantly, their attention to detail far exceeded our expectations. If you need a reliable, highly skilled carpenter, JT and his crew are the best in the Central Maine to Midcoast region."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

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?

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

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.

In most states, you can build an in-law suite on your property as long as you follow local building codes. However, it's important that you have enough space on your property to accommodate the new structure. A functional in-law suite in your backyard will require between 300 and 800 square feet of space.

How long it takes to build a log cabin depends on a variety of factors, including its size and design, and whether or not you have to clear the land. Construction can take a few weeks for a prefab log cabin on an established site, but up to eight or nine months for a custom cabin on undeveloped land. In comparison, the timeline to build a house is typically four to 12 months.
