"Terbrock's team showed up on time and did the work professionally and carefully -- like it was their own personal home improvement project. At the end of the day, Tom Terbrock himself showed up to make sure everything went well. The price for the work, including removal of existing fixtures, installation, and clean-up, was more than reasonable."

"Added closed cell spray foam between joists to air seal and insulate, and filled remaining space with fiberglass, and replaced the plywood on the joists in the crawlspace. I had got estimates from 3 companies to compare, I thought theirs was the most thorough solution for the price. I wanted air sealing and a high R value. Estimated a one and a half day job, workers were VERY courteous and professional. They were prompt and hard workers. Answered all my questions and concerns. They worked till dark but the job would need a few hours the next day to finish. There wasn't much room in the crawlspace so it was a tough job. I inspected the nearly finished work. And the crew returned the next morning and worked during a downpour to get it done. My wife paid them that morning. What impressed me most was how they handled a problem I had when I inspected the final part of the work a few days later. I was not satisfied at how the final three pieces of plywood were installed and met the support beam. I'll chalk it up to miscommunication of my expectations. I emailed the support email that night. The next morning the co-owner called me, said he'd get it fixed to my satisfaction. They had a crew back out in a few days and did a great job installing it as I wanted. I was very impressed how they stood behind their work."

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.

Local regulations dictate how big an ADU can be, and there may also be restrictions on the percentage of the main residence’s square footage an ADU can have. In most cases, an ADU must be smaller than the main residence, but check with your local building authority to confirm restrictions on ADU size.

A custom home is one that you design from the ground up, allowing you to customize everything from the square footage to the interior layout to all of the materials used. A spec home is one that a builder has designed and gotten approvals for. Spec homes may give you some limited options for the layout and materials, but most of the build is pre-set. Custom homes cost more and take longer to build.

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.

In most cases, you should get an architect before you hire a builder. An architect will be the one to draw up formal plans for your project, including guidelines and even material lists for your builder to follow during construction. Many architects can even help you find builders, choose one for your project, and negotiate prices. Some are also willing to act as project managers throughout the process, working closely with a builder from start to finish.
