"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

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

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.

Hiring a reliable home builder is an essential task, but there are a few questions you can ask a potential builder to ensure you they are trustworthy and up to the task:

  • How long do you expect the process to take?

  • Are you fully licensed and insured?

  • How much of the work will you subcontract?

  • Will you pull all of the necessary permits for the job?

  • How long is the builder’s warranty you include with your work?

  • How do you handle resolution for issues I might have with the finished product?

  • How much experience do you have?

Building a house without blueprints is not advised. It will prevent you from obtaining necessary building permits and meeting building codes and is likely to result in shoddy construction and unsafe living conditions. Detailed blueprints ensure that a house is built to exact specifications and is constructed safely and structurally stable.

There are energy-efficient options when building a cottage. Select green building materials, high-performance insulation, and energy-efficient windows when designing your cottage. Options such as solar panels, efficient HVAC systems, and LED lighting can lower your utility bills and reduce your environmental impact. Many builders offer energy-efficient upgrades as part of the design process.
