"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."

"The technician did an excellent job. It did take a while to get the repair finished, but that was due to Bertazzoni delivering the parts. I have had multiple problems with this particular appliance. My range now works better than it did when new, but I have a feeling that even if I have continuing problems with it, American Home Shield will just repair rather than replace due to the cost of the range. By the way, I'm not exactly sure of the date of the repair."

"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

If your property sits on the heavy clay soils common in Columbus, you face foundation shifting that complicates home building. Check your address against federal flood maps, as elevated foundations require specific structural approaches. For older homes in the historic district, original framing and aging plumbing or electrical systems demand careful handling. Hire a local professional to inspect your structure and identify these specific architectural challenges before starting work.

Helpful?

Start home building by verifying your exact zoning classification to determine what structural changes are permitted. Gather all required site plans and construction drawings to secure your building permits early. If your Columbus property rests in a flood zone or historic district, you must obtain specialized approvals before starting. Order a professional soil assessment to test the local clay and prevent unexpected foundation failures down the road.

Helpful?

Unexpected expenses during home building stem from foundation remediation caused by expansive Mississippi clay soils. If your property rests in a flood zone, major renovations trigger strict elevation requirements. Older homes hide aging utility lines, poor drainage, and hazardous materials like asbestos or lead paint. Properties in the historic district also demand specialized, historically accurate materials. A thorough pre-construction inspection helps you prepare for these exact issues.

Helpful?

When planning home building, prepare for the severe thunderstorms and tornadoes common in MS. Schedule exterior work during late summer or fall to avoid heavy spring rainfall and weather delays. Verify if your property falls under city or county zoning rules, as these dictate your project limits. Finally, check for military overlay zones near the local air force base, which enforce strict height and noise restrictions.

Helpful?

Always hire licensed contractors with active general liability and workers' compensation insurance. Your chosen professional must have proven experience handling the heavy clay soils and severe weather risks specific to Columbus. Ask prospective builders about their local subcontractor networks to prevent scheduling delays. For specialized projects, verify their expertise with historic preservation guidelines and flood zone regulations. A reputable contractor will also handle all required permitting for your home building.
