"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 were extremely happy with Gary and Shawn's work. Everything was completed on schedule even with the little extras that cropped up during the project. I appreciate Gary's expert advice when we ran into these issues. They were able to take an outdated 40 year old home and renovate it to look new. They were both extremely professional and we actually missed their company when they were done. I would highly recommend Discount Home Services to anyone looking for a company to perform home services. Before Gary left we asked for bids on some additional future work. Thanks Gary and Shawn for the great work and sorry for taking awhile to post this review."

"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

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.

Building a new home can be more expensive than buying an existing one, depending on the housing market in your area. Many homeowners still find that building a new house is worth the investment as they can choose the exact layout they want, as well as to choose their own floors, wall coverings, appliances, and finishes. If you live close enough to the build site, you can also stop by to check on the builder’s progress, which can provide some peace of mind that the project is worth it.

Buying a house is easier than building one from scratch. Buying an existing home is almost always faster, even if you need to make renovations once you move in. When you hire the right team to build a home, they will simplify the design and build phases so that there is little guesswork throughout the process, but building new construction will almost always take longer than buying an existing home.

Framing is often the most expensive phase of building a house because it’s time-consuming and requires a lot of materials. It costs between $20,000 and $50,000 on average, depending on materials and labor costs. Before construction begins, it’s possible that purchasing land is the priciest step in the process. Some plots of land sell for $3,000, while others cost upwards of $150,000.

Check reviews, compare quotes, and verify licensing. Ensure the builder has experience with modular construction.
