"Loay Jabbar provided the information I needed quickly and clearly. I immediately signed up for full coverages for our two homes because of the discounts offered and because of the quality of service that Loay is saying and promising Choice Home Warranty provides to its customers. I have bad experiences with other home warranty companies so I am hoping I found the best company that would deliver the best service."

"My late husband built our 30-year-old, 2,800 sq. ft. cedar-sided home.  The exterior had deteriorated to the point of no return. In addition to the siding, the roof needed to be replaced, as well as the cloudy double-pane windows.  Robert Manos, with G & M Construction, replaced the roof with dimensional shingles (and a metal-roof on the porch--metal roofs being their specialty), replaced the cedar with Hardy ColorPlus siding, replaced all the windows, added a beautiful deck, poured a stoop and sidewalk, laid ceramic tile in my kitchen and around the stone fireplace.  They even patched walls, and patched and sprayed ceilings where needed throughout the house.  My favorite project was a custom cedar ceiling in the breakfast room.  I had wanted to reuse a portion of the salvageable cedar from the exterior.  Robert and his crew painstakingly planed the curling, grayed boards to my satisfaction, beveled the edges for a finished look, and the rough, ugly, old cedar was transformed into a beautiful ceiling, in homage to my late husband's love of that natural wood.  This entire experience of working with Robert and his crew was such a blessing.  They are honest, hard-working, perfectionistic craftsmen.  A process that might have been tedious and challenging was instead brought to a close with a bond of friendship and respect.  I can not recommend this crew more highly."

Custom Home Builders 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.

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?

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.

Yes, you can finance cottage construction through several options. Construction loans provide funds in stages as work progresses, while home equity loans or lines of credit are available if you have existing property. Some lenders offer a combined construction and permanent mortgage. Always review loan terms and payment milestones before committing.

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.
