"I gave Jared some ideas I had for my remodeling and he not only did all of the things I asked, he went above and beyond my expectations! He was honest and reliable and I’ll definitely be calling him for any future work I need done."

"My wife talked me into going to a home improvement show at the beginning of the year. We had been trying to find a cement company to replace our walkway and driveway. They were crumbling and it was becoming a safety issue. We met Rob at the Rock Solid booth and talked about our options with him. He came out to our house and we decided to go with a stamped concrete walkway and a cement driveway with a matching stamped border. That company knows their stuff. We were delayed by the rain a few times, but I cannot tell you how impressed I am with how it came out. I would use them again in a heartbeat. Thanks to Rob and Katie in the office. They were great to work with."

"Jeremy was a lifesaver! I had extensive water damage in my bathroom that resulted in a hole in the floor. As a single mother, I was concerned for the safety of my children. The first few contractors I spoke to treated me like a number. Jeremy however, rearranged his schedule and came out the next morning! He was fair and honest in what work needed to be done. Other contractors quoted me for work that wasn’t necessary and without even looking at my floor! He brought me piece of mind in a stressful situation. I will trust him with all of my home repair needs from now on!"

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"The project went really well and I'm super stoked. Some of my ideas changed as we went through the quote and planning process and Charlie went along with my ideas and gave me feedback. My driveway and yard are exactly how I wanted them. I have an amazing tiered front porch, new side patio and steps, and expanded driveway on both sides. I'm super happy with the work and how everything turned out!"

Home Building questions, answered by experts

How long it takes to build a custom home or rebuild a home after a disaster varies depending on many factors, but averages between seven and 14 months. Smaller homes or homes that don’t need a re-poured foundation may take less time to build than larger homes or homes without an existing foundation. Material availability, contractor schedules, and permit and inspection timelines can all affect how long your house takes to build.

Buying a house is easier than building one from scratch. Buying an existing home is almost always faster, even if you need to make renovations once you move in. When you hire the right team to build a home, they will simplify the design and build phases so that there is little guesswork throughout the process, but building new construction will almost always take longer than buying an existing home.

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.

Modular homes can go up or down in value depending on a few factors. In areas where real estate is appreciating, the value of modular homes is likely to increase, and vice versa. Additionally, the value of modular homes depends partially on the area. In cities where every other home is stick-built, modular homes might be considered a functional obsolescence, in which case they could be less desirable and go down in value. In either case, though, modular homes can still be a good investment, especially since they provide housing at a lower upfront cost.

The longest part of building a custom home is the design phase. It takes multiple professionals and a ton of work to bring your vision for your dream home to life while sticking to a homebuilding budget and also ensuring everything is built to code. Expect the design phase for a custom home build to take six months to a year.
