"Felipe and all of his employees were great! Did a big remodel on our master bath and moved bravely from the 70s to the 21st century! Huge walk in shower and custom vanity is gorgeous! Felipe and Art checked in with us on all decisions and made some excellent recommendations. Finished within the timeline discussed. We have another bathroom to go and will definitely be calling Professional Contracting Builders!"
"They were extremely thorough. They rented a special machine to 'scrub' the air and clean out the mold once and for all. I needed to leave the house for 48 hours and also remove my indoor cats. Initially they thought my goldfish would be okay so we left her in the house. When it was evident that she wouldn't be all right they took her out of the tank, put her in a 5 gallon tank that I had and put her in the safest part of the house. When they came back a few days later to check how everything was one of the cats got into the crawl space. I wasn't home and they were worried about the cat's safety. They waited until she came out even though they had to stay and extra hour or so. "
"service provider sent by American Home Shield was excellent. The only issue I have with home warranty services is that they do not send their repair companies out on the week-end, even in an emergency. The customer service personnel is less than enthusiastic or helpful."

"the job was completed by 2 men but the fence & gate are not lined up straight; more of a zigzag & gate did not close properly so I had to have someone else redo the gate closure. They did not use a plumb line; just eyeballed it... Luckily it's in my backyard so not many people see it. At least they got the job done quickly right after I moved into my new home & needed a safe place to keep our dogs. "
"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. "

It is a good idea to check in with your local city and state regulations before committing to building a shipping container home no matter where you live. This concept is pretty new across the country, and many places won’t let you build one.
The International Code Council (ICC) offers guidelines for home builders on the safe use of ISO intermodal shipping containers repurposed as building components, which can be helpful to review when planning or designing a shipping container home.
Check reviews, compare quotes, and verify licensing. Ensure the builder has experience with modular construction.
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.
To get a quote from a builder or general contractor, contact them over the phone or online and explain your project. If you already have house plans drawn up, they’ll need to review them to determine the project's scope before providing you with a quote. Ask for your quote in writing and compare quotes from several pros before choosing the best one for your needs.
