"Anthony Scardino, the owner of TAS contracting and his crew did an amazing job. He was always reachable and easy to talk to and work with. They were reliable, neat and clean.

"Romeo performed an emergency roof repair and dealt with the problem to it's conclusion. He is a man of his word. I subsequently hired him to do brickwork on my home. Both jobs were done professionally to my satisfaction. I recommend Romeo."

"After purchasing our first home, we worked with Tommy to do a full remodel. His design ideas allowed us to create our dream home. Tommy and his team were professional, courteous, and always met their deadlines. In total, we did a remodel of our kitchen, living room, dining room, great room, 3 bathrooms, master bedroom, a walk in closet, brand new siding/gutters, a new heating & plumbing system, and a lot of interior work. Our friends are in awe of the work that Tommy and his team did at our house. Tommy took his time to get to know us, design exactly what we wanted, and saw the project through from start to finish. We are already speaking with Tommy on other projects for our home. His professionalism outweighed any other contractor that we interviewed, it was a pleasure to work with Tommy and I have recommended him to all of my friends and family."

"1257 Rogers Ave. The 4 story commercial building next door is being demolished & removed already, first unattach it, next, demolish and remove the 3rd & 4th floors and unattach it very carefully! Remodel it into 2 stories and make this new house smaller just like the old house next door! And then remove those metal storm shutters to give us back the skylight windows in our bedrooms because we live in 1253 Rogers Ave. 2nd floor! Adrese Harris Thank you!"

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

One of the best ways to negotiate with a homebuilder is to forgo price reductions. Instead, negotiate over upgrades and incentives, as many builders are more willing to go down that road than to decrease their own fee. Even if they were willing to take a cut, a reputable homebuilder often knows their worth, so a willingness to negotiate could be a red flag. Beyond that, builders are typically willing to negotiate closing costs instead of offering a discount on the base price.

Framing is often the most expensive phase of building a house because it’s time-consuming and requires a lot of materials. It costs between $20,000 and $50,000 on average, depending on materials and labor costs. Before construction begins, it’s possible that purchasing land is the priciest step in the process. Some plots of land sell for $3,000, while others cost upwards of $150,000.

Modular homes are a type of prefab home. Specifically, manufacturers first build modular homes in sections and then deliver them to the job site. The modules, or sections, are usually at least 70% finished before they arrive on your property.

In comparison, prefab homes arrive in panels or segments, and workers assemble them on-site. Generally speaking, modular homes tend to be more durable, and their consistent construction standards may mean you’ll have an easier time getting conventional home loans.

Local regulations dictate how big an ADU can be, and there may also be restrictions on the percentage of the main residence’s square footage an ADU can have. In most cases, an ADU must be smaller than the main residence, but check with your local building authority to confirm restrictions on ADU size.

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.
