"We had a huge attic that was barely usable for storage since it was too hot in the summer to safely store most items. We hired Richmond Homes to build out both a new guest room and a "clean" storage room in the attic, add flooring and lighting to the rest of the attic and replace the flooring in the existing bonus room to give the whole upstairs a cohesive look. They were able to translate my fuzzy ideas into fabulous new spaces with attention to detail and top quality work. I work recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, high quality contractor."

"We were new to the Wilmington area and at a loss for who to use as a contractor for our master bath and kitchen remodel. After meeting with several contractors, I selected Richmond Homes based on the attention to detail on the proposal, honest feedback given during those first meetings, the realistic timeline to completion and an overall sense that quality work would be done within my budget and within the timeline we established. Chad and Richmond Homes DID NOT DISSAPPOINT! They were professional and knowledgeable. They worked hard, were always on time and did impeccable work. I would recommend them for any job you have no matter how big or how small. I would not hesitate to hire them again. Out of all the contractors we have hired over the years they are absolutely second to none!"

"Mike was very good to work with, professional, timely and considerate. Mike used top notch contractors and our home was completely stick built, no prefab trusses were used. Our custom built home is beautiful with details that compliment each room and the outside as well. Mike made suggestions we didn't think about and the outcome was perfect. We highly recommend Mike for your build."

"Charlie the owner came to our home to discuss giving us an estimate for building a garage. He is a good listener. We walked the property and he was very knowlegable about what could and could not be done. He sat down with us in the house and gave a most excellent explanation of the process that goes into the planning and execution of such a project. He then gave us a date when he would get a written estimate to us with further detail. The estimate arrived as promised. It was clear and precise. Our available resources had to be devoted to a non-construction project and thus we were unable to continue further with the construction project. However, our experience with Charlie was a most positive one and we would call on him in the future. We highly recommend him.

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Ultimately, a work warranty is only as reliable as the contractor you’ve hired. That’s why trust and reputation are such important factors, in addition to having a solid contract and confirming appropriate licensing, insurance, and bonding. When looking for a contractor, it’s a good idea to read online reviews and ratings to see what kind of experience past customers have had. Issues with your contractor can make for an unsatisfying renovation process, but a reliable contractor can make the process go as smoothly as possible.

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.

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?

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

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.
