"Excellent! Emile and his crews were complete professionals in all aspects of the project and relationship. We communicated frequently and stayed on schedule. His men arrived on time and were respectful, organized and always cleaned up at the end of the day. Their workmanship is beautiful. Emile kept me up-to-date daily on progress and had great suggestions. He managed my expectations from our first conversation and throughout the project. Overall I had a great experience and would not hesitate using him again."

"Gene and the boys are amazing contractors and are our go to when there is work that needs to be done on our home. They remodeled our basement, and did a custom builtin to house our 180 gal fish tank. They removed a wall to make the basement more open space. Not only that but they did it cleanly, efficiently and in an amazing turn around time. They also more recently helped to fix our crown molding around our fridge in order for us to buy a bigger one and it looks exactly like the rest of our kitchen. We couldn't be happier with Your Way contractors and we will forever be repeat customers. Thank you Your Way! Also anyone who is looking to do work, I highly recommend the team."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

After finishing home building, obtain a Certificate of Occupancy from local officials before moving in. Schedule all final inspections to ensure your new space is safe. Update your property records with Bergen County to reflect any new square footage. Request lien waivers from your contractor to protect your property. Finally, test for radon, as NJ has naturally elevated levels, and update your homeowner's insurance policy to cover the improvements.

Helpful?

Before starting your home building project, gather a current property survey to confirm your lot dimensions and setbacks. Locate your deed, existing permits, and any previous certificates of occupancy. Check your Paramus flood zone designation to understand specific construction requirements. Provide your contractor with recent local tax records, existing utility drawings, and previous New Jersey radon test results to ensure they prepare an accurate and compliant project proposal.

Helpful?

When reviewing quotes for home building, eliminate any contractor who lacks state registration or trade certifications. Watch out for proposals that omit permit fees or suggest skipping municipal inspections. A trustworthy professional will always offer a formal written contract and provide proof of general liability and workers' compensation insurance. Avoid builders who seem unfamiliar with Paramus zoning rules, local flood zone requirements, or standard New Jersey radon mitigation practices.

Helpful?

In the short term, permitted home building ensures your structure meets current safety and energy codes. Over time, completing these projects properly protects your property value and prevents resale delays. Adhering to strict New Jersey energy standards significantly reduces your long-term heating and cooling expenses. Building with flood-compliant materials in vulnerable Paramus neighborhoods also minimizes structural risks and lowers future insurance premiums, keeping your property secure for decades.

Helpful?

Successful home building starts by designing within Paramus zoning rules, which restrict building height, setbacks, and lot coverage. Maximize your layout by taking advantage of full basements, a standard feature in the area that provides extra functional space. If your property sits in a flood zone, elevate the first floor to meet safety standards. Incorporate thick insulation to meet New Jersey energy codes while planning your room dimensions and window placements.
