"It was a big build. Coordination of trades was important. Their work to navigate permits with multiple government agencies kept the project on track and on budget. . It's drawn a lot of neighborhood attention. One of the goals was to make this large shop fit into the neighborhood. Job well done."

"Installed a brand new bathroom on the second floor of our home. They did everything from start to finish, as we had no bathroom on the second level- ran all new plumbing, installed tiled shower with glass door, new toilet, vanity, drywall, flooring etc! Sam suggested we use some of the dead space for shelving. He cut and installed those as well. Great service, pricing, and product- we love it!"

"Loay Jabbar provided the information I needed quickly and clearly. I immediately signed up for full coverages for our two homes because of the discounts offered and because of the quality of service that Loay is saying and promising Choice Home Warranty provides to its customers. I have bad experiences with other home warranty companies so I am hoping I found the best company that would deliver the best service."

"Bob did a great job. Everything was nice and neat. Only small problem we had with him is the promise to be out to do the repair the following week, but heard nothing all week. We called him the following Monday and he explained that he had lost an employee and that he was very busy. Bob said he would be there on Friday in the afternoon. He did come late Friday afternoon and did the repair even continuing when it started raining. We are very pleased with Bob's Complete Construction."

", Build, owned by Matt Williams is superb. Tasteful, utilitarian, safe and necesary; Matt took care of all the problems and unattractive parts of our home. He is responsive, patient, pleasant (a wonderful smile), and smart. ALso, he is careful about the cost of items. He finds great pieces or equipment that are less costly than we anticipated. We wouldn't hesitate to have a working relationship with Matt and Build, LLC.

"Our company has utilized the services of Allen Home Construction in several customer and internal construction projects. As a company that specializes in residential and commercial waterfront equipment, we at various times find ourselves faced with property projects outside of our area of expertise. Allen Home Construction has been a great "go to" construction pro with broad knowledge in several home/building construction applications. Specifically, our company has hired Allen Home Construction for various new construction projects ranging from custom deck and dock systems, to interior/exterior residential and commercial building refacing and updating. The quality of work and broad range of professional experience which is obvious when dealing with them, is hard to come by. Their work is detailed and efficient while providing much comfort that the task is properly throughout the entire process.They provide great input regarding suggested designs and material choices. We have found with every project that they have hired them for is done with very little material and labor waste, translating into a very competitive project costs. Thank you Allen Home Construction!"

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

The average build timeline for a home is between six and 12 months, with timelines pushing toward the upper end of that range if you’re creating a custom design or need a lot of land preparation before getting started. Hiring a general contractor or a custom homebuilder will help speed up the process, as you’ll see fewer delays between different parts of the build process getting done.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

The average cost to renovate or remodel a home is $52,300, with most projects ranging from $19,500 to over $88,400. However, costs can vary significantly, from as low as $3,000 for a small project to $170,000 or more for a complete home remodel.

Several factors influence the total price, including:

  • Project Scope and Size: The extent of the renovations, whether it's a single room or the entire house.

  • Location: Geographic location affects labor and material costs.

  • Materials: The quality of materials chosen.

  • Room Type: Kitchen remodels ($14,500 - $70,000+) are generally more expensive than bedroom remodels ($1,500 - $5,500).

  • Other Factors: The time of year, complexity of the work, and any additions or expansions.

On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $15 and $60 for standard projects and up to $150 for luxury renovations.

Examples of specific project costs include:

  • Basement remodel: ~$20,200

  • Garage remodel: ~$27,900

  • Loft conversion: ~$20,200

  • Disability accommodation remodel: ~$4,300

  • Major home repairs: ~$11,700

If you are financing the project, note that some loan programs, like the FHA 203(k), may require a minimum project cost (e.g., $5,000) and will necessitate a home appraisal and professional cost estimates. Using a home renovation cost estimator can also help you budget for your project.

A carriage house is a freestanding building, while a townhouse is connected to other units. A townhouse is a full single-family home and typically shares a parcel of land with other connected homes. A carriage house is rarely used as the sole single-family home on a property and is most often an additional building sharing property with a traditional single-family home. 

Shipping container homes last at least 25 years on average, but they can last even longer with proper maintenance. Since shipping containers are made from metal, they’re quite vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This issue is exacerbated in coastal areas or areas with a lot of precipitation. To extend the life span of your container home, install siding that protects the exterior.
