I have been in business for over 8 years. It started out as side project to make extra money, but turned into something I am very passionate about, I love my work and pride myself on my excellent quality. I've built everything; decks, new houses, siding ( vinyl-cedar-clapoards) bathrooms (remodels/new) finished basement, structural supports, flooring, painting, full kitchen remodels. I am organized and keep a very clean work space. I believe in fair pricing and have wonderful communication with my clients. I enjoy explaining the ins and outs of a project so my clients know exactly what they are paying for. No job is too small or too big. I also offer landscaping services installs, retaining walls, fences and minor tree work.
"Absolutely perfect! H Hedges did a great job at a fair price. Very professional and reliable."

"Do NOT hire Dennis!! A project that should have taken 2 weeks, took over 6 weeks. To start, I contacted Dennis 3-4 weeks before we purchased a fixer upper house. He said he could start work the day after closing to get things going. The day of closing I reach out to Dennis to confirm he would be there in the morning and he informed me that he would be able to start for another week. To me that was unacceptable since this was schedule for about month. When the project finally started He would show up anywhere from 8AM-1PM and would only stay for a hour or two at the most. He was constantly making excuses that he had forgotten certain tools, had to finish other jobs he was working on, had to run to the hardware store to get something, etc. He said he would be right back but would wouldn’t return until the next day. Thankfully he wasn’t doing a lot of the work but had subcontracts do a majority of it. They worked hard and did a decent job. About a week or two after the project was complete, the new custom shower/tub that was put in wouldn’t turn off and was about to overflow onto the floor before I could get the water shut off. In the process some water went down the overflow drain and the next morning I have a large brown spot on my kitchen ceiling from the water. I had to have the water off to the whole house for over a day before I could get a plumber to come look at it. The plumber told me that the faucet was install wrong and with the wrong materials and that the overflow drain was put on backwards, leaving a large gap in the fitting. This is especially unacceptable because Dennis is a plumber. That night this happened I tried contacting Dennis about the issue to have him come fix it but he never answered. I had to foot the bill for the hundreds of dollars worth of mistakes he made. To be honest, there is a lot more I could say but I will spare you. I will definitely never hire him again!"

Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.
The average cost to hire an architect for your home project ranges between $2,200 and $10,500. However, depending on location and project type, you might end up paying as little as $600 or as much as $45,000 or more. For example, the average cost of hiring an architect in North Carolina is between $1,800 and $2,000, but in California, that price tag jumps to $3,600 to $15,200.
The price you pay for your architect also depends on their experience level. For example, a principal architect, the firm's owner, typically charges $150 to $250 per hour. However, an intern architect with three to five years of experience usually only charges $45 per hour.
Knowing if you need an architect for your project can be tricky, especially if you've never worked with one before. In general, small remodeling projects like replacing fixtures typically don't require the expertise of an architect. However, larger projects, like moving walls or adding an addition to your home, should include an architect to ensure the project is structurally sound.
