Customers say: Quality work

"They are not local to my area. Please, hire local. And this is for Angi: Try not to recommend contractors who are a significant distance away, in this case around 80 miles (and 2 states) away. Great website, appears to be professionally designed and maintained, I like what they do (judging from the content in the website) but I am outside their service area. I don't live in that area. If I owned a home or apartment in that area, I would hire them."

"Sovereign Homes brought our vision to life! We added a primary suite to our home, replacing an existing crawl space attic. Rey helped us step-by-step throughout the project. We appreciated his clear communication and efforts with the town and the contractors. We love the luxurious addition to our home!"

"This company did an excellent job remodeling an attic apartment for me. I relied on Dariusz to just "get it done" and he took care of everything. I simply had to pick out some flooring, cabinets and some appliances. He did everything else. His guys worked quickly and efficiently. I could not have been more pleased with the final result. I thought the labor charges were reasonable. Frankly, I expected to pay a lot more. I would use them again in a heartbeat."

"Jack contacted us on the first day and agreed to meet with us after we filled out a form on Angie’s list to find a general contractor in our new hometown. It was immediately obvious that Jack and his son, Dom, knew what they were doing and so we were hopeful the estimate would fit into our budget. Within a week (which included speaking to some contractors that could not or would not do everything we were looking for) we signed a contract with Jack and they begin working within a short amount of time. Our original plan was just the tankless water heater, generator and bookshelves. During their time with us, we discovered a roof leak and Jack and his son spent hours determining exactly what was wrong. We had no doubt that we would use them to repair our roof as well. Overall, we were very happy with Jack, Dom and all the subcontractors. You won’t regret working with Jack."

"John did outstanding job finishing basement in our house. He provided contract at the beginning of the project with the job descriptions and prizing. The prizing was reasonable. He strictly honors the contract. He worked personally with Livingston city authorities for job permit. John spent a lot of time with the city inspectors and completed all their recommendations. Work was done in very professional manner without any deficiencies. We are very happy! Definitely, recommend this company services to our relatives and friends"

"We were very happy with the service we received by Cary and his crew.  He beat every estimate we received and gave us quality work.  All the guys were nice and respectful.  Did paperwork for permits, worked fast, neat and was a perfectionist.  I would not hesitate to call Cary again to do work for us in the future.

"I purchased a new construction house built by B&A Construction. First day I step into the house, all the details in the house mesmerized me. You can tell they pay attention to details, lighting was mind blowing, fireplace was marvelous, all bedrooms were good size, marble floors look awesome and in addition they cleaned the house inside and outside before closing. I can not thank enough to Luis who helped me to get the copy of the survey which saved me good $$ for fencing permit. Overall, I highly recommend B&A construction team and thank you for building such a beautiful home and further assisting me even after the closing."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.

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.

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.

Builder-grade is one of two types of stock cabinets, whereas semi-custom designs allow homeowners some control over the color, finish, or hardware on their cabinets. Stock cabinets are sold in construction-grade and builder-grade designs. Construction-grade cabinets are usually made from inexpensive medium-density fiberboard, which is prone to moisture damage, whereas builder-grade models are a step up with higher-quality materials. Construction-grade designs are the most common type of cabinets in America.

If you want to make your home eco-friendly, enjoy low maintenance, and love the fact that its looks will take people’s breath away (and not because they were trying to blow your house down), then a modern brick home is right for you. You can hire a mason to get the building process started for your brick home.

But if you’re not fond of the color and don’t want to deal with the process of repointing or other repairs, consider going with vinyl or wood. These materials offer a lower cost. While they tend to require more maintenance, they don’t cost nearly the same as exterior brick house repair.
