"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."

"I recently hired American Elite Contractors Inc to remodel my kitchen. Their pricing was very fair compared to other companies I was considering and I can confidently say I am beyond satisfied with the quality of work and customer service they provided me. I am very impressed! They even completed the project before the deadline! Will definitely be hiring again for future projects as needed! Thank you!"

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

The longest part of building a custom home is the design phase. It takes multiple professionals and a ton of work to bring your vision for your dream home to life while sticking to a homebuilding budget and also ensuring everything is built to code. Expect the design phase for a custom home build to take six months to a year.

In most cases, you should get an architect before you hire a builder. An architect will be the one to draw up formal plans for your project, including guidelines and even material lists for your builder to follow during construction. Many architects can even help you find builders, choose one for your project, and negotiate prices. Some are also willing to act as project managers throughout the process, working closely with a builder from start to finish.

While it’s never too early to start planning for a major home improvement project like a home addition, give yourself at least a month or two to plan and design your addition, find a contractor, and get the permits in order. For larger projects like a second-story addition that require designing with an architect, plan on three to four months of preparation.

Custom homes can take an average of 18 months to build, mainly due to the lengthy design process, and most projects take somewhere between 12 and 24 months. When you work with the right custom home builders near you, they can help you map the road ahead and understand what can speed up or delay the timeline. Choosing locally available materials, for example, can speed things up without losing that customized touch.

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.
