"It went well. I felt very comfortable with Doug and his team whether I was working from home or in the office. They were professional and easy to get along with answering all my questions. The workmanship was high quality and I would use them again for other construction/carpentry work."

"We had an excellent experience with this pro, who built our home from the ground up. From the beginning of the project to completion, they were professional, reliable, knowledgeable, and committed to doing quality work. They paid close attention to detail, communicated well throughout the entire process, and made sure the work was completed properly and efficiently. We are very happy with the final result and the quality of our home. I would absolutely hire this pro again and highly recommend them to anyone looking to build a new home."

"Stephen was very professional. They arrived on time every day, and always asked questions each step of the way to ensure we were happy with the outcome. When we didn't like the cabinets that were picked out for either side of the fireplace, Stephen custom built ones to our liking. We were very please with his services, would definitely hire him again."

"It is with absolute pleasure that my wife and I have the opportunity to write this review on behalf of Young Remodeling.  As business owners in the service industry (medical), we understand the importance of providing quality service, communicating effectively all while completing an endeavor in the most cost effective, time conserving manner.  On all accounts, every member of the team at Young Remodeling succeeded with a resounding A+++++ rating.
As with most home owners going through the process of a renovation, we performed our due diligence and met with five different companies/contractors over a period of two months.  We entertained and enjoyed hearing the varying sales concepts and design ideas all while trying to adhere to a budget with which we were comfortable.  Paul Young, owner of Young Remodeling, was our fourth contact and, in all reality, was our last.  His approach to the job at hand was both methodical and efficient, yet hands on and personal.  After all, it is his name on the business cards and it clearly showed in the pride he takes in his work....THANK YOU PAUL!!!!
After making our decision, we were assigned a designer (chosen by Paul based on our needs) to begin the process of fabricating the kitchen of our dreams.  Jenny was an absolute delight to work with and simply understood my wife and I from the very first meeting.  We met with her many times over the course of 4-6 weeks as we reviewed the various designs, narrowed down choices, and then finally came up with the final rendition.  She not only created the designs but also helped us choose from the myriad of material available (granite, back splash, tile, color schemes, etc). I would feel remiss if we did not mention that her computer renditions (numerous and accurate) were enjoyable to view and likely a great deal of work....THANK YOU JENNY!!!!
Once the design was complete, the structural engineer approved, and the city gave blessing on the design, we were assigned to Rex, who was the next important stage of the project.  Rex was our project manager who became the "go to" contact throughout the remainder of the renovation journey but was in no way isolated from Paul or Jenny.  Rex, in short, was simply amazing. He kept everyone (from permits, demolition, plumbing, electrical, drywall, ceiling repair, flooring, painting, cabinet install, granite install, appliance install) on a schedule and over the course of our 10-12 week renovation, we never varied from the "master schedule" but by a day or so.  We cannot say anything regarding Rex and his work ethic except for "Stellar Job"....THANK YOU REX!!!!
Behind the scenes of all the work done were the hardworking crews of the individual disciplines.  Each and every one of the crews involved in our renovation not only acted and performed in the most professional manner but are deserving of the same THANKS as the rest.  We would like to acknowledge the Demolition crew, the Framing /Building crew (Jamie, Jeff and Cody), the Drywall/Ceiling crew (Matt and his father), the Plumbing Crew, the Flooring crew (Carlos and his team), the Cabinet Install crew (Charlie and his team), the Granite install team (Evolve), and the Painting crew (Brent and his team)....THANK YOU ALL!!!!
As we have decided to stay in this home for the long term, we look very forward to our next projects in the years to come...basement remodel, master bathroom remodel and outdoor stone patio/sun room addition.  It goes without saying that we look forward to using Young Remodeling for all our future remodeling needs.

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

Handypeople usually don’t hold trade licenses, so they typically aren’t qualified to tackle projects involving installing or making alterations to plumbing or electrical lines. Below are some jobs that a handyperson usually won’t be able to complete:

  • Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom

  • Replacing plumbing pipes

  • Installing or repairing septic systems

  • Running new electrical wiring

  • Installing a subpanel

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.

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.

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.
