"The owner, David Gurwell, took time to listen to my explanation of the problems, offered alternative solutions if I did not want to use his company and was as helpful as could be. Due to that, I opted to have him do an estimate for me and decided to go with his company. His staff was on time, hard working and competent.  They went out of their way not to track dirt into the house and to clean up after themselves every day.  They were cheerful, courteous and a pleasure to have around.  They did a beautiful job and so impressed my son that he plans to have them redo one of his bathrooms. I would not hesitate to call them for future work and definitely recommend them.

"We were very pleased with the performance of Trinity Renovations, we had a major plumbing issue that caused extensive damage to our ceiling in the dining room and living room. They responded quickly with the initial phone call and even met me the same day, which was a Sunday, to go over the project. After coming up with a solution and submitting us with a very fair bid we agreed to hire them.We were pleased to learn that they would be on the job quickly and complete in trhe same manner. They even helped us on some smaller issues at no charge. great people , courteous, and extremely productive. We are very pleased with the outcome."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

It is a good idea to check in with your local city and state regulations before committing to building a shipping container home no matter where you live. This concept is pretty new across the country, and many places won’t let you build one.

The International Code Council (ICC) offers guidelines for home builders on the safe use of ISO intermodal shipping containers repurposed as building components, which can be helpful to review when planning or designing a shipping container home.

A construction-to-permanent loan is the most common type of mortgage used to finance a house teardown and rebuild. These loans include financing for construction costs and convert to a long-term mortgage once construction is complete. Check the terms of the loan closely before beginning work—there are often restrictions requiring you to use licensed contractors for all work.

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.

Remodeling a house is often less expensive than building a new house. You can expect to pay an average of $100 per square foot when you are remodeling. The cost to build a house averages about $150 per square foot. When remodeling, though, some rooms cost more than $100 per square foot and some cost less. Use a home renovation cost estimator to accurately estimate your remodeling costs.

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.
