"I hired Annex Builders LLC to build a garage including the concrete slab. The work was done very professionally and quick. Once the garage was done, Annex Builders LLC replaced the roof on my house with propanel to match the garage. Today they finished painting the garage and the entire house, including all the trim and they even stained the wood porch. The entire project was done very efficiently and the job site was always clean. Thank you for getting this project done a few days earlier than projected!"

"The worker was punctual and we first looked over the fence together and decided which pickets needed replacing.  Then we went to Home Depot and selected the newpickets together.  Then returned and he went to work and worked through the day until 8pm to complete the job.  The workman was professional and worked hard.  I had him return for a separate charge to haul away the old pickets.

"This is a beautiful home.  Joe has been a pleasure to work with.   This is the second project we have worked with Joe.  He built a garage for us several years ago, so we asked him to bid on this new home.
Joe subcontracted to a great flooring company and a wonderful granite company and a fabulous cabinet maker.  He and his crew did the framing, slab, roofing, drywall, and most of the work.  Joe is on the job site most days and believes in doing the job right.  The biggest problem we had with this project was that the cultured marble subcontractor was not responsive and was slow and not interested in finishing the marble or doing the job right.  I doubt Joe will use this marble complany again.
Joe doesn't mind having the homeowner around.  My husband walked around the site every evening and if he had any questions, Joe was always responsive and willing to answer questions and explain why things were being done the way they were.
Joe's crew is pleasant to be around.  This home is being built for my in-laws and is next door to my home, so I spent a lot of time around the crew and got to know them. 
Our one thing that we feel could be improved is that Joe needs to write more detailed contracts.  It avoids any mis-understandings when changes need to be made or when lighting or other fixtures are being picked out.  We haven't had any problems, but the potential exists without detailed contracts.  Joe is a man of honor and integrity and is one of the few that still works on his word and a hand shake. 
Over the past 6 - 8 months of bidding, contract and building we have gotten to know Joe and would highly reccomend him to others for home building or remodeling.

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

Shipping container homes last at least 25 years on average, but they can last even longer with proper maintenance. Since shipping containers are made from metal, they’re quite vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This issue is exacerbated in coastal areas or areas with a lot of precipitation. To extend the life span of your container home, install siding that protects the exterior. 

Handypeople usually don’t hold trade licenses, so they typically aren’t qualified to tackle projects involving installing or making alterations to plumbing or electrical lines. Below are some jobs that a handyperson usually won’t be able to complete:

  • Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom

  • Replacing plumbing pipes

  • Installing or repairing septic systems

  • Running new electrical wiring

  • Installing a subpanel

Buying a house is easier than building one from scratch. Buying an existing home is almost always faster, even if you need to make renovations once you move in. When you hire the right team to build a home, they will simplify the design and build phases so that there is little guesswork throughout the process, but building new construction will almost always take longer than buying an existing home.
