Founded by Robert Conti in 1988, TBC began as a small residential construction service in Monmouth County. With ambition and foresight, TBC quietly became a player in the commercial construction market. In 1995, Robert sought an interior fit-out retail project in Trenton for Levin Management, who at the time were one of the largest retail management companies in the country. Having completed the Trenton project on time, TBC began a 10 year relationship with the retail giant. Completing projects in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut. Having compiled years of experience and growing a great nucleus of personnel and subcontractors, TBC turned its eyes on the General Contracting / Construction Management field. It is now, and still with an extensive hands on push, TBC can complete projects both big and small.

Beyond Compare specializes in additions, kitchens, bathrooms, basements, decks and general remodeling. We are licensed and fully-insured. Our owner, Robert Lanfrank, has been in the home improvement industry for more than 27 years. We pride ourselves on our high-quality work and our attention to detail and cleanliness.
"We hired this company in the summer of 2021 to start work 10/25/2021. We found out in the process that the owner is not familiar with construction at all. His hired project managers and subcontractors were clearly incompetent. Work included an approximate 850 sq. ft addition on our home. There were so many things that went wrong, it’s difficult to list it all. To begin, work did not commence until 3/2022. The owner of this company hires subcontractors who have proved to be unprofessional and provide sub-standard work. Just a few to mention: After pouring concrete foundation, plumber had to drill through concrete to install plumbing for addition. The electrical, sheathing and framing inspections failed multiple times. The plumbing inspection failed because paperwork was not properly filed by the company. The initial framer was fired and we were never notified of new subcontractor. The concrete floor is three inches higher than it should be, resulting in us losing three inches of ceiling height. This problem was never been rectified. The concrete pad outside the sliding door had to be removed due to improper installation. Also, the drain in the pad was installed incorrectly. Has never been rectified by the subcontractor. The NEW contractor we have retained to complete the work has also noticed several issues: • There is a leak in the roof over the living/kitchen area from the deck above that will need to be addressed and rectified. (See pics) • The ceiling joists were cut down from 8 inches, as per the proof plans, to 6 inches and now need to be reviewed by the architect and structural engineer to determine what is the best remedial course of action. • Stairs off the deck will not pass inspection due to the risers being too high, contrary to code. The last straw was when he texted asking for more money for work to commence prior to due date because he had run out of funds. We ultimately fired him and hired another company. This is just a small look into what we have dealt with. All we can hope to educate the public to not use this company."

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
The pros and cons or advantages and disadvantages of building a new house include:
Pros:
It’s all new, so you should have several years before you need to pay for major repairs like a new roof.
It’s under warranty, so many fixes within that warranty period should be covered.
You get to build the house to your specifications.
Cons:
You have to make a LOT of decisions.
You will almost certainly deal with building delays.
It can take a lot of work to stay within your budget.
Building can be more expensive than buying an existing house.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.
Hiring a contractor to build your home is a big commitment. So be sure to ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective home builder:
How many years of experience do you have?
Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
Do you have worker’s compensation?
How long have you worked with your subcontractors?
How do you handle garbage and waste disposal?
Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Do you give free estimates?
Do you offer design services?
How do you handle change orders?
Can you provide at least three references?
Can I see some of the work you’ve done?
