"Mike and Johnny did a great job! They gave a good quote and said they could start the following week. They did the job faster than quoted and were very meticulous with the details. They were even on their hands and knee wiping dust off our floors before they left each day. Already looking at hiring for another project we are working on!"

"They did everything they said they were going to do and they saved me a lot of money. The custom cabinets look amazing! They were even able to custom build all of my great ideas I showed them on Pinterest. They made it very easy and fun for me and it was finished faster than estimated. The quality and service was top notch. I love showing off my new home to my friends. I highly recommend Kraftwood and would use them again."

"DeWeese & Associates have been flawless. Brett DeWeese came to our home for the quote and he was very professional and had an answer to all of my questions! The customer service is outstanding. Brett has kept me informed every step of the way for our bathroom refresh (x2) and basement renovation (from ceiling to floors). Amazing team and I have already recommended them to my family."

"We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Discount Home Services. From the start, Gary demonstrated the highest degree of integrity on the project scope of work, cost and time-frame. The quality of work was EXCEPTIONAL and the customer service was ABOVE-AND-BEYOND. Gary is very knowledgeable and is a seasoned contractor/builder. He was a pure joy to work with, always looking out for our best interest; he was professional, creative, detailed oriented and fast – an incredible craftsmen. Gary actually made what is normally a stressful process, very fun. Our project (like many, I assume) presented some unforeseen challenges, and Gary worked with us to ensure things got done within our budget and within our time-frame. Gary was also patient and flexible as our renovation expanded in scope and he was always available to offer suggestions, opinions and cost effective solutions. Throughout the renovation, Gary was available pretty much 24/7 to answer our questions and was in contact with us daily regarding schedule changes and length of stay on the job. The finished project is fantastic, we already received many compliments about the quality of work. If you are looking for a contractor that is on time and on budget, that cares deeply about craftsmanship, customer service, and is a pleasure to work with, look no further. We highly recommend Discount Home Services, and we are confident that if you hire Gary, you’ll never look for another contractor. Kellie and Giorgio"

"Nick did a great job getting us through our first bathroom remodel. Our space had a lot of issues and surprises and Nick helped to come up with solutions while keeping us in our budget. The new bathroom looks great and we are very happy with the quality of Nick’s work."

"The project went excellent!!! Brandon walked me through every step of the way and he kept me abreast of all and changes that had to be made and all issues with permits with the city of Southfield, MI. It was a pleasure working with Brandon and his company when way above my expectation of the final outcome. I will truly recommend Brandon company for any size project big or small. Brandon is truly a professional and he listen to his customer needs and wants."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

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.

Modular homes are more affordable than stick-built homes if you keep quality and square footage equal. The cost to build a home averages $323,000, while average modular home prices sit at {AvgCost}. If you’re looking for custom or luxury options, a traditional custom home costs $825,000, while a high-end modular home costs $600,000, on average.

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.

Craftsman-style homes are predominantly found in the Western United States, specifically in Southern California, where the style originated. Since the climate was mild and there was access to plenty of natural resources, Southern California became a hub for this style at its inception. That being said, if you consult with an architect near you, you can have a Craftsman-style home anywhere.

It’s typically more cost-effective to move a building along with its accessories than to demolish and rebuild it from scratch. However, that’s only if you can move the accessories without damaging them. However, if you plan to demolish the accessories anyway, it is advisable to do so before the move to save costs.
