"This group of workers are family and work together. They are very efficient, on time and do really high quality work. They built a barn for me and did it in a very short period of time with excellent outcomes. Everything was square and fit together perfectly. I was very impressed and happy that I had them do the job for me."

"Chad and Scott did a fantastic job, from concept to completion of our project. We needed an interior wall, framing, door, drywall, texture, & painting, & all the details to enclose our kitchen from our entry. They understood our concept, and had the work done from start to finish in 2 weeks. Meticulous, detail-oriented, polite, & fun to have them here in our home are how we would describe our relationship with Chad & Scott. They even let us keep adding other small projects along with the wall construction, always being cheerful & accommodating. We would definitely recommend them to our friends & neighbors for any projects! Susan & Larry"

"VERY Very well, Chayse from Lundgren-Homes did a great great job and he stayed and came back with appropriate tool that was odd and he purchased himself to get the exercise massage chair done, let me explain. IT WAS A 3K chair that needed putting together with wires and lectrical conduit and connectors as well as placing in metal holders to hole the very very heavy chair itself. At one point it took both of us to balance this heavy back that the chairl itself was well over 250#'s itself. T-tack didn't help nor did assembly for IKEA Furn folks could do or attempt. CHAYSE was the ONLY ONE that went the extra mile to figure out the Japanese Instructions that NO ONE could of done by themselves. Even You Tube videos didn't pull this one off. THANK YOU MISTER LUNDGREN of Lundgren Homes for your son to come out and help our Family in a tight placed Studio Condo! NOT EASY TASK! Plus two dogs to boot! Thanks Angie's List for having Chayse on here!!! He saved the day and my Spouse was going to send it BACK TO COST Co for a Refund! We would of had to pay freight shipping chrgs."

A functional sink was installed that did not come out into the doorway. A custom cabinet needed to be built for the plumbing.

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

It’s typically more cost-effective to move a building along with its accessories than to demolish and rebuild it from scratch. However, that’s only if you can move the accessories without damaging them. However, if you plan to demolish the accessories anyway, it is advisable to do so before the move to save costs.

Modular homes last an average of between 50 and 75 years, and high-quality modular homes can last for 100 years with proper maintenance. For comparison, a standard home lasts 50 to 100 years and can push to 150 or longer with good maintenance. Modular homes provide better long-term value in that they are significantly more affordable and can last almost as long, but some buyers are wary of modular home longevity, so the actual value if you sell could be lower.

One of the best ways to negotiate with a homebuilder is to forgo price reductions. Instead, negotiate over upgrades and incentives, as many builders are more willing to go down that road than to decrease their own fee. Even if they were willing to take a cut, a reputable homebuilder often knows their worth, so a willingness to negotiate could be a red flag. Beyond that, builders are typically willing to negotiate closing costs instead of offering a discount on the base price.

On average, the cost of a home builder is about $150 per square foot, but that price can range from around $100 to $400 per square foot or more. That puts the typical price range of a standard, 2,000-square-foot house between $200,000 and $800,000. Some factors that affect the price of hiring a home builder include the following:

  • Location of your home and the living cost in the area

  • Type of foundation and framing you choose

  • Quality of the building materials

  • Footprint and layout of the house

  • Number of stories

  • Builder’s experience

Shipping container homes last at least 25 years on average, but they can last even longer with proper maintenance. Since shipping containers are made from metal, they’re quite vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This issue is exacerbated in coastal areas or areas with a lot of precipitation. To extend the life span of your container home, install siding that protects the exterior.
