"Rob the owner is a very detailed person. It shows in the custom cabinet fit and finish. Kraftwood Homes is a one stop custom cabinet manufacturer. We have used them for two custom kitchens and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality product at a very fair and reasonable price. We continually get compliments on his cabinets we had installed. Good luck Kraftwood is a very good custom cabinet maker."

"Brett DeWeese is an honest and very capable project manager and builder. He is also very adept at design concepts. I will hire him again when a project comes up as he and his workers are trustworthy hard working very skilled people. I would recommend him and his company to anyone contemplating a project. He did not build me just another deck he built an outdoor living space that is both attractive, pleasing to the eye, while being practical and easy to maintain. His project is a great compliment to my home."

"This rating is long overdue and if I could give more than 5 stars I definitely would!! I cannot say enough could things about Ron!!! From my previous experience with other companies either not showing up or trying to take advantage of me, Ron proved to me that there are still extremely professional, prompt, efficient, and honest companies out there! I could not be a more satisfied customer and I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for home improvements!!!! Him and his dad do it all and they are beyond fair with their prices!!!!! You wont be disappointed!!!!!!"

"Working with Brandon was great! The first job he did at my house was instal approx. 750 square feet of wood floors, which turned out beautifully. He was easy to work with, friendly, and met all the deadlines laid out. From there we knew we had our guy to help with all our projects! He installed trim around all the floors and windows, installed and grouted our tile backsplash, built a front porch and roofed it, to name a few. Brandon is also always available to help my husband and I when we are doing our own projects when we need a second opinion. I appreciate all the work he’s done so far and look forward to working with him on more projects in the future."

"C & O arrived at the jobsite prompt and ready to work. Both my wife and I appreciated the attention to detail that was given to our flooring and painting projects. C & O finished the project by ensuring clean up was done properly, thus leaving our home in above satisfactory condition. The job was done in an extremely precise manner and the crew left no stone unturned in providing top notch craftsmanship. We would definitely rehire for all of our home improvement needs."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

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.

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.
