"Reasonably priced and quality work. We had to have a supporting wall removed to enlarge a children's classroom at our church. This project had to be done so we would be able to use the classroom the following Sunday. J&M came in and removed the wall, installed a support beam, and finished the project so the two rooms looked like they had always been a single room. They cleaned up afterwards and we were able to use the room the next Sunday. Thank you for all that was done. Ed Building and Maintenance Coordinator."

"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."

"Stephen was awesome to work with and his work is outstanding. We are SO happy with our new railings, they make the entire house look brand new. If you need work done in the Grand Haven/Holland area, don't hesitate to go with Northern Lights Construction. I've worked with a lot of contractors and Stephen is top notch. Highly recommend."

"A++++! bob and matt are awesome! Thank you angie's list, for
helping us find the best contractor that we have ever worked
with...and we have been home-owners for 15 years! Bob was available
on the phone, from the first phone call, and great with communication
all the way around. He worked us in right away, on our schedule, and
we were fortunate enough to have him work us in the very next day
after he came out to give us an estimate.
Bob and matt worked hard and non-stop from the moment they got to
our house. We had a few projects to be done that day, two wall
sconces and a ceiling fan light fixture where there was no ceiling
fan before. Of course, I wanted the sconces where I wanted them ( I
don't like to hear ?no'? when I want something the way I want it!
;) ), and as challenging as it was, bob and matt never once suggested
it would be easier to put them a little off my marks. Bob said, ?ok,
that's where you want them, that's where they will go.? you have
to love that! It was just positive energy the whole time, bob and
matt have a very positive, ?can do,? attitude. Now I have
everything just exactly the way I envisioned it, without the damage
to the walls I was expecting, it just looks amazing and i'm so
delighted that I didn't have the wall repair I was expecting because
they worked a miracle on that job! I just love that they spent the
extra time to work hard and not take any short-cuts to give me what I
wanted without any damage to the wall. I also love that bob stuck to
the estimate he gave us (very reasonable), even though I am pretty
sure the job took a little longer than any of us thought is was going
to.
On a more personal note, bob and matt were a joy to have in the
house, I am bi-polar 1 and have extreme anxiety issues, so, for me,
it is difficult to have people in the house sometimes, (it is my
fortress of solitude! Lol) so, when I say it was a joy to have bob
and matt in the house, that is a big deal for me! All the time they
were working their butts' off, but still bringing positive energy
into the house, and I can't wait to have them back because I know
they will just be a joy to have around, and I know they will do a
great job on anything we hire them to do!
if you are looking for a contractor to do work in your house, hire
bob and it will be a great experience all the way around, and when he
and matt leave, you will be smiling for days!

"Preston of G-1 Plumbing performed the services and addressed the toilet & drain problem. He was unable to stop leak(made it worse) & submitted his recs to Choice Home for review. I was unable to understand Choice Home's response regarding the faucet leak. Their review stated faucet needed to be replaced BUT it was under "builder's warranty." I built this home in 2005. There is no "builder's warranty" now. I cancelled the proposed work order & paid out-of-pocket. A Friend, who was familiar with my builder and knows faucet components, came to my home, adjusted/cleaned the faucet cartridge and stopped the leak. The CHW tech, Preston, is conscientiuos, however, IMHO lacked the knowledge & experience to stop my leak. Home Warranty Companies, at least in my area, hire owner/operators who need the work to build their business and are NOT the most experienced/knowledgeable & are willing to work for less money. In my experience, Home Warranty Companies want the CHEAPEST resolution, not the BEST. I would recommend G-1 Plumbing for most plumbing issues."

"Jesse was very professional and came out to give us an estimate quickly. His craftsmanship and attention to detail is great. He is quickly and I am impressed with his work on our home. He has knocked down walls and installed drywall. He is also doing painting and flooring. I would recommend him for any household job you may need."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.

Modular homes can be a great investment, especially for those who find the prices of stick-built real estate too high. Modular homes are usually much more affordable because they’re mass-manufactured and then assembled on-site or delivered mostly assembled. If they’re installed properly and by professionals, they can last for between 50 and 100 years, potentially making them an outstanding investment.

On average, the cost of a home builder is about $150 per square foot, but that price can range from around $100 to $400 per square foot or more. That puts the typical price range of a standard, 2,000-square-foot house between $200,000 and $800,000. Some factors that affect the price of hiring a home builder include the following:

  • Location of your home and the living cost in the area

  • Type of foundation and framing you choose

  • Quality of the building materials

  • Footprint and layout of the house

  • Number of stories

  • Builder’s experience

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

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.
