"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!"

"Overall, Victor is a quality builder and I am very satisfied with my home. Recently there was an issue with a leaking window. Victor came and took a look and then sent someone to repair it. This is 6 years after my home was built. I'm thrilled to have it fixed without having to try and find someone on my own. Love my house."

"Chester was absolutely professional.  We had a lot going on in our home during this renovation, and Chester was cooperative with all of the other contractors who were there at the time.  His responsiveness is lightning fast, and he is thorough in explaining the job and the cost.  Quality is A+.  We have a large project in mind for the coming year, and we hope to have Chester and his crew back to do another amazing job!

"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 is very professional.  His prices may be a bit high, but I am a firm believer you get what you pay for.  The quality of this workers and subs was wonderful.  He even has a division that made a custom vanity for the master bath that matched a cabinet we had in there for towels and linens.  He has a good attention to detail.  He was patient working with our condo association that had problems with the new windows he installed and made sure that both groups were happy in the end with the work he did.  We love the work he did on the two rooms and would hire him again.

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

There are energy-efficient options when building a cottage. Select green building materials, high-performance insulation, and energy-efficient windows when designing your cottage. Options such as solar panels, efficient HVAC systems, and LED lighting can lower your utility bills and reduce your environmental impact. Many builders offer energy-efficient upgrades as part of the design process.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

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.
