"Would not recommend this vendor. Removed existing chimney - caused over $3,000 in roof and interior damage. When the crew broke a seal on the roof and did not fix it, rain caused extensive interior damage. Quick response when contacted, promised a small refund - never happened. Great talkers, mediocre craftsmanship, overpriced, and rude when contacted after damage occurred."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Local zoning laws and building codes will determine whether you can build a guest house in your backyard. These laws may limit the potential location of the guest house on your lot or the size and look of the structure. If your lot isn’t large enough, you may not be able to build a guest house at all. Speaking with a local home addition company can help you learn about the local regulations and your other options, such as adding an ADU onto the main house.

Some, but not all, home improvements are tax deductible or offer other tax benefits. For example, if you make green improvements to your home, such as installing a heat pump or solar panels, you may qualify for a tax credit. You may also deduct the cost of home improvements you make to improve the accessibility of your home or to allow yourself or another resident to age in place.

Framing tends to be the longest step in the construction process, especially for larger homes. It takes anywhere from one week to a couple of months, depending on the house size, the number of people on the construction crew, and the time of year. The design stage often takes a long time, too. Some people spend months or even years contemplating their house’s size, layout, and materials before construction begins.

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits. 

As mentioned above, cupolas are popular for barns to keep hay dry and ventilate smelly air. However, they go back to the 8th century, and you’ll find them across different styles of architecture. For example, you might see them in the Greek Revival style. You can add a cupola to almost any style of house.
