"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.

"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!"

"I signed a contract with this company and was provide a copy of their insurance certificate.  I appreciated the fact that he didn?t want to be paid anything until the job was done and I was satisfied.   This is how all contractors should work.  The job was supposed to begin on Thursday but they never showed.  I called Chris (the owner) he apologized, explaining that they had run into some unexpected problems on their current job and would begin on Friday.  His crew of 4 began work on Friday at 10 AM.  I was thoroughly impressed by his guys.  They took the time to protect out flower beds, laid tarp on the lawn and worked hard all day.  These guys didn?t stop every few minutes to take breaks they were hard at it.  By the end of day one the roof was stripped and the deck was completely prepped, and several courses of new shingles had started going down.  They cleaned up as they went along.   Day two came; they arrived at 8 AM and started working.  They worked through the persistent pouring rain and were completed by 3 PM.  They cleaned up and and when they left we had only a few minor things to touch up.  The house looked great and I would recommend them.

"The contracted the work off to a third party. Jon took longer than expected. The windows was installed pretty good from the looks. Communication could have been better with knowing the job will take longer and what types of trims I wanted for the windows. As the contractor that was hired for this job by this company. Did a good job with putting up decent trim. As for the new windows they look great. I purchased the myself and hired sentri homes to install them. I will need to have a my siding on my house redone to be closer to the new windows so the gaps are not so obvious. That was not expected at first. But from old storm windows and not knowing how they were put in originally. There was some unknown things that was learned from the job being completed. I will have the siding of the house slightly done to match really good for what I wanted later on. My only concern is better communication with sentri homes. Overall they were great when I did talk to them."

"Keyes construction responded to my email within 24 hours. I needed a layer of metal and two layers of shingles removed and everything replaced. He was the best priced and completed the job within a weeks time. The workers were very professional and and showed me and my family nothing but respect. I see using Keyes Construction for all of my future projects! 10 out of 10"

"Charles and his brother, Jason Turner are some of the most professional, courteous, knowledgeable contractors I have dealt with. They took their time to turn out the excellent work on my deck. They also have been fun for my wife and I to deal with. They did not mind stopping their work to carefully explain what is going on. This is very refreshing. I would highly recommend Bonafide, Inc. to anyone looking for a contractor! That is as soon as I am done with them. I have another project for them. Thank you for your referral."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Local regulations dictate how big an ADU can be, and there may also be restrictions on the percentage of the main residence’s square footage an ADU can have. In most cases, an ADU must be smaller than the main residence, but check with your local building authority to confirm restrictions on ADU size.

Modular homes are a type of prefab home. Specifically, manufacturers first build modular homes in sections and then deliver them to the job site. The modules, or sections, are usually at least 70% finished before they arrive on your property.

In comparison, prefab homes arrive in panels or segments, and workers assemble them on-site. Generally speaking, modular homes tend to be more durable, and their consistent construction standards may mean you’ll have an easier time getting conventional home loans.

Building a house without blueprints is not advised. It will prevent you from obtaining necessary building permits and meeting building codes and is likely to result in shoddy construction and unsafe living conditions. Detailed blueprints ensure that a house is built to exact specifications and is constructed safely and structurally stable.

Building a new home can be more expensive than buying an existing one, depending on the housing market in your area. Many homeowners still find that building a new house is worth the investment as they can choose the exact layout they want, as well as to choose their own floors, wall coverings, appliances, and finishes. If you live close enough to the build site, you can also stop by to check on the builder’s progress, which can provide some peace of mind that the project is worth it.

It’s typically more cost-effective to move a building along with its accessories than to demolish and rebuild it from scratch. However, that’s only if you can move the accessories without damaging them. However, if you plan to demolish the accessories anyway, it is advisable to do so before the move to save costs.
