33 As it becomes less frequent to find good people, they still exist. Esser Builders made my porch project smooth and easy. I appreciated all the knowledge and time they took with me to answer my questions! I appreciated the explanations with different options, pros and cons. My porch is...
Esser Builders IIThe windows were not installed to the Michigan building code regulations. The building inspector came out and verified it. Jason from Turn Key wouldn’t correct the problem. I’m just glad this is the only work they performed. Another thing to remember if you hire this company, Jason doesn’t...
The leveling went well and I am satisfied with the work done there. The foundation repair is another story. When the workers filled in the hole around the foundation wall it was not done properly and now my steps are uneven. Also the crew left clumps of sod on my grass and did a poor job with...
Ayers Basement SystemsMy wife and I have been working with Mayberry for about 12 years. We talked with an amazing women named Jodie for our build. She was extremely patient and kind. We met with her a lot over those 12 years and never did she push us to build when we were not ready too. It did take that long for...
Mike provided quality work, visited and inspected work onsite as our home was being built almost daily. Addressed questions promptly, assisted us in making decisions with selections, easy to get ahold of, genuinely cared about customer satisfaction. His crew was always polite and respectful....
I can not say enough good things about the job they did. Michael came out, took a look at the project and designed the deck and stairs from the deck into an area of the yard that I wanted to fence in. After all the plans were made, the township building inspector would not issue a building...
I think as he doesnt have an architect on staff, that he should invest in a design software package that would remind him to include light switches, clearance between cabinets and appliances etc. I was very pleased with the quality of the work. Mike and his crew were very nice, willing to...
I started using Jon Long with another builder, and when I had additional jobs, chose to use him by himself. He is very hard working, responsive, detail oriented, and helpful. I will use him should I have additional projects. My neighbors have complimented many of his projects.

"Wolverine Contracting Design + Remodel provided us with exceptional craftsmanship for our renovation. They weren’t our cheapest option but their unique cost-plus process of contracting, clear & transparent labor rates and discounts saved us thousands on our projects. We have never seen a company operate in this manner, but it just made complete sense to us, and it works extremely well. Along the way we were a bit indecisive and made a few changes which added work to the original scope, increased our budget and timeline, however Douglas immediately shifted into another gear and was able to incorporate our changes within the original design. He is extremely honest, trustworthy and knowledgeable of his trade. His communication skills and integrity were second to none. I don’t know how he handles all the stress, but he makes it look easy. All team members and subcontractors were respectful of us and our home and a pleasure to work with as well. We highly recommend Wolverine Contracting and will be contacting them for any future projects."

Generally, general contractors charge between $50 and $150 hourly, though not every contractor charges by the hour. If charging based on the project, you can expect a markup of 10% to 20% of the construction cost. You can expect to pay between $300 and $500 daily if charged by the day.
General contractors are the ones that coordinate home construction projects. They are in charge of the day-to-day oversight of the subcontractors to ensure that the project is completed on time and to resolve problems as they arise. General contractors:
Complete pre-construction planning, both with the customer and crew
Provide realistic cost estimates
Develop construction timelines
Ensure deadlines are met
Acquire permits as needed
Purchase supplies and materials
While city and state laws vary on general contractor licensing requirements, hiring an unlicensed general contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines for your area.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
