"We were very impressed with the knowledge Randy has of his craft. We brought in multiple contractors and feel that Randy was one of the most knowledgable. He is personable and easy to talk to about your project. Although we ended up not using his service for this project, we wanted to write a review because we were so impressed with him and confident in his knowledge. We will definitely consider him for future projects. "
"He arrived right on time and got right to work. He came prepared for all types of repairs as his truck is designed to carry EVERYTHNG. He is a very personable guy. He seems to know how to do a wide variety of jobs--handy man, indeed! Upon completion, he showed me what he had done and checked to make sure we were pleased with it. We were. Best of all, he is right down the road in Colden. It was a nice change having someone who lives close by. We usually have to ask people if they come to our area. "
"I hired Mitch to redo my carport roof & gutters, as well as my kitchen & bathroom floors. He was punctual, professional, and completed everything immediately.

I have recommended him to a few friends and would hire him again for future projects."
"Ten out of ten. Completed the job within quoted price range and within estimated time frame. Extremely trust worthy and good communication throughout the process. Great workmanship and couldn’t be happier with the final product."
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.
Professional remodelers streamline the process, manage permits, and handle renovations efficiently—significantly mitigating risk while maintaining standards.
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.
It is technically possible to draw your own blueprints, but the process is extremely involved and really demands help from an expert. A professional architect has an understanding of design elements, interior design, the functionality of different rooms in a home, and how everything from furniture, outlets, and light switches should be laid out to serve you and your family best. Hiring an architect for blueprints can get expensive, but it’s the most responsible way to begin a new construction project. If you’re keen on DIYing, you could consider starting the process and then having a professional take over.
You can draw your own house plans using three-dimensional modeling software, but in most cases, you’ll need an architect to draw up the final plans. Architects understand local building regulations and requirements, so their plans will be necessary for getting permits approved, and they’ll also ensure your home is structurally sound. DIY house plans can be a good place to start to help visualize your project, but you should always defer to a professional before trying to proceed with the project.
