"These guys did an excellent job, they were clear at every step, helped me through the insurance claim process, and were patient with me and my wife while we went back and forth on solutions. We live in a home on the historic register and feel a responsibility to only have the highest quality work done on our home and also to make wise choices on aesthetics. As a result, we took a long time to make our final decisions. In particular, we were very impressed with Billy, who worked with us and even helped me mount a sheet of metal on my roof to make sure the metal roofing we selected matched our other slate roof. For our other buildings, they were able to use high quality asphalt shingles to replace existing asphalt roofing. As this was an old home, there are a LOT of "nuances" which they mastered with the highest quality. I was thoroughly impressed throughout the entire process, and in particular, very happy with Billy who made me comfortable throughout the entire process."

"I have hired many contractors within the past years for all types of home projects. This group has exceeded any group that I have worked with. They were extremely concerned about doing the job to my specifications and checked in regularly to ensure that I was pleased with the work being done. They worked especially hard to match a difficult paint color and maintained very clean work areas. In addition, they were personable and considerate. They showed up on time, worked hard, and had the job completed within two weeks of my first contact. I will hire them again for all future jobs!"

"Owner Junior Green was a friendly, honest fellow who was reliable, worked hard, did a very good job, and left the site clean. My job was painstaking in places and access was a bit tricky, but no problem for Junior. He mostly worked alone and cut no corners. He started with the foundation and outside of masonry wall, which looked great. We then ran into weather problems and my dissatisfaction with colors chosen from misleading Sherwin Williams color samples, which put him behind schedule and I had to suspend the project due to going out of town. I could have switched painters then but did not. When he returned he worked steadily and finished my project in less than the expected time. I am very pleased with the outcome. My only gripe is that he does not have an account with Lowe's, where I preferred to buy because they sell in small cans to try out different colors. He says he does not like their paint but they carry Cabot and Valspar so I don't get it. I now own several cans of unused stain and did not get a painter's discount on all materials. Also, he is not cheap. Still, I recommend Clean Hands and will be a return customer."

"The company employed 3 different crews to complete a front of the house remodel. These crews did, stone work, carpentry and landscape (drainage)) work. All the jobs were completed on time with excellent results often exceeding expectation as to precision and clean up work. I would highly recommend this company to anyone without reservations."

"If there was a word better than amazing, that is the word I use to describe working with Duane Knight, the owner of UBuiltit. We live in Michigan and found a beautiful lot on a beautiful lake that we just had to have. The downside was the house on that lot was, to put it nicely, a dump! We brought Duane to our site, talked over the vision and the rest is history! He managed the process from start to finish. From tearing the previous “dump” down to celebrating with us as we moved in. Duane let me be as involved as I wanted to be, which was my absolute favorite part. He let me meet the contractors and be apart of the whole process. He was responsive to my thoughts and ideas but also added his input when needed. He restrained us (budget wise) when needed but let us be creative in other ways. He was on site everyday and taught us so many things about the building process as we were first time home builders. He is a family man with great values and morals. I would not recommend anyone BUT Duane and UBuildIt!"

"I purchased a $99 Big Deal on 03/31/2015, but the service was done on 07/28/2015. This was due to difficulty in scheduling. When workman was available, I was not. And when I was available, there was no workman available. My suggestion to customer is to purchase a Big Deal when you know you will have some time available soon after purchase, or service provider may be too busy.
Also the Big Deal was for 3 hrs of Handyman Service, but I was informed that 2 handymen would be coming. Also that there may be extra change if workmen had to purchase extra material. My suggestion to customer is to think of all materials that may be involved in your project  and have them on hand just in case they are needed. Send a message to the service provider to make sure of what the workmen will need and what you may have to provide. For example, the correct tools for the job of removing a built-in shelf were needed for my project. The workmen had their tools,e.g. reciprocating saw, pry bar,etc.,  but I did have to provide drop cloths, box, trash bags, and broom/dust pan. They had a shop vac for clean-up, but I provided broom and dust pan to remove large pieces of debris not handled by shop vac.
My appointment was scheduled to begin between 8:30-9:00.  At 8:24,I received a call confirming my appointment and to tell me workmen were on their way. Phil and Steve arrived at 9:00. They were very pleasant and professional. After a short conversation and time to inspect the work, they began removing the shelf.
Initially, I thought it was not necessary to send two people to remove one shelf, but once Phil and Steve began the removal, I saw that it was more complicated than just sawing some areas and pulling it out. There was thick layer of drywall, OSB, and cornerbead They seemed to take care in the removal in order not to damage the surrounding structure and a water line. 
Once the removal was complete, they cleaned the area with their shop vac and my broom. Using the drop clothes I provided, made clean up easier and protected my wood floors. They placed the debris in bags and a box I provided, and  placed them in my garage. They said they could haul away the debris, but that would be an extra change.
They left at 10:06.
I really appreciate the positive, professional attitude of Phil and Steve. They were persistent in completing a job that seemed to be simple initially, but proved to be a bit more complicated. They talked about ways they could be of service to complete the next step of my project without giving me the "hard sell".They showed respect for me and for my home. And I liked that.

"It went very well!!! Dana ran this as a turnkey operation. I left many of the design details to her. This is a family business with Dana’s husband Rex leading the installation. Within minutes of returning to the MLS, I had a contract on the townhouse for full price. The agent had been checking in on the progress of the remodel and was impressed with the work being done. My real estate agent also checked in and was pleased. I could not be happier with what they accomplished in a short amount of time. Dana was a “godsend” to me."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

A contractor can install your shipping container home in as little as 90 days. This is notably quick compared to a traditional home build, which can take more than a year (providing there aren’t permitting or construction delays that make the wait even longer). For the quickest installation, choose a prefab container home.

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.

A construction-to-permanent loan is the most common type of mortgage used to finance a house teardown and rebuild. These loans include financing for construction costs and convert to a long-term mortgage once construction is complete. Check the terms of the loan closely before beginning work—there are often restrictions requiring you to use licensed contractors for all work.

The longest part of building a custom home is the design phase. It takes multiple professionals and a ton of work to bring your vision for your dream home to life while sticking to a homebuilding budget and also ensuring everything is built to code. Expect the design phase for a custom home build to take six months to a year.

Building a house without blueprints is not advised. It will prevent you from obtaining necessary building permits and meeting building codes and is likely to result in shoddy construction and unsafe living conditions. Detailed blueprints ensure that a house is built to exact specifications and is constructed safely and structurally stable.
