"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."

"Tom is very professional and fair. This was an addition to an existing home, so there ended up being additional work that needed to be done to the original structure that was not anticipated. But we found Tom to be earnest and trustworthy in his assessment of which work was a priority, and which was not. Despite the additional cost for this additional work, the cost for the original work came in on budget. Quality of work was very good."

"We just purchased our first home, which we love for its historic character. So much of the original house was still in place when we moved in, including the windows. And while we loved them for their historic charm, they were in pretty terrible shape. We chose Legacy and they did a superb job installing the perfect windows that blended perfectly with the rest of our home. We would not have gone a different way with that selection."

"My husband and I just bought a condo in Chicago and were interested in having some "light" construction and painting done before we moved in as we had about a month between closing and our planned move. We were enticed to use MPO Builders by the Big Deal they were offering and also their A grade. We reached out to the owner, Mike, and he came out to do a quote assessment. Everything seemed great at that point...Mike was on time and responsive. After that, things fell off a little bit. He returned the quote to us more than a week after he promised and became very difficult to get in contact with. We were on somewhat of a tight schedule and his delays were making it tighter. After we reviewed the quote, we communicated to Mike which items we were going to move forward with. Then there was radio silence for a long time. Given the 4th of July weekend fell in that time, but it still was an unacceptable amount of time to wait after multiple emails and voice mails left for Mike. We decided to purchase the Angie's list deal as a way of "prodding" Mike. Finally, we get a response and Mike sends out one of his job managers, Francisco. What a godsend. Francisco is super responsive and, for the most part, has readily communicated with us. Nothing ever runs perfectly, but Francisco and his team have done a great job accommodating our requests and addressing issues that arise. The work is not done just yet (completion date set for 8/1), but we are pleased so far. Ultimately, we decided not to use the Angie's list deal voucher as we were well outside of the amount of work provided in the deal, which is why we requested a refund. But, Mike did honor the approximate amount of the Angie's list discount."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Yes, a home builder or contractor should have the proper licensing and insurance. Licensing requirements vary by state and municipality, but most states mandate that a builder holds at least a general contractor’s license. For specialized work such as plumbing, electrical, roofing, or sewage systems, individual licenses may be required, in which case the builder may subcontract the work. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to review your local guidelines and confirm a builder's credentials. As you browse professionals, you can also look for the “Angi Certified” badge. This indicates the business meets our certification standards, which include passing a criminal background check, holding applicable state and local licenses, and maintaining an average rating of 3.0 or better.

Renovating or remodeling an existing structure is usually less expensive than the cost to build a new house. That’s because you can save on the costs of new building materials, laying a foundation, framing the entire building, and installing new materials and utilities throughout the house. However, if a home is in very poor condition or is incredibly old, you could spend more on upgrades and restoration compared to building from scratch.

Most cottages are around 1,000 square feet, making them smaller than most other styles. However, cottages are defined more by their decor and architectural focus on simplicity, functionality, and a connection to nature than they are by a rigid square footage or floor plan. While cottages are defined more by their charm and appearance than size, the smaller footprint does help maximize the comfort and charm, and it keeps the focus on connection to nature and family.

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.

In most states, you can build an in-law suite on your property as long as you follow local building codes. However, it's important that you have enough space on your property to accommodate the new structure. A functional in-law suite in your backyard will require between 300 and 800 square feet of space.
