"????? After another company came in and completely messed up our deck project, we were frustrated and unsure who to trust. Thankfully, we called Modern Building & Contracting, and honestly, we only wish we had found them first! James and Mike came out, listened to our concerns, and immediately put us at ease. From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable, and committed to doing the job right. The quality of their workmanship exceeded our expectations, and the finished deck turned out absolutely beautiful. My family and I couldn?t be happier with the results. It?s clear that they take pride in their work and truly care about their customers. If you?re looking for a reliable contractor who delivers quality craftsmanship and excellent customer service, we highly recommend Modern Building & Contracting. Thank you again, James and Mike?we love our new deck!"

"Sandiel Construction did a full remodel for us and was beyond our expectations- it turned out absolutely beautiful. Sandiel is extremely skilled and pays great attention to detail. He did our siding, demo, insulation, drywall, electrical, windows and paint - not only was it done beautifully but it was done timely. I fully recommend Sandiel Construction for your next project."

"We did a split project with Kurt and his team. We had a mother-in-law suite and we wanted to turn it into a full size bedroom with half bath instead since we are expecting our second child. They were recommended to us from a friend and I couldn't have been happier. To start, they were able to beat the price of another contracting group in the area by a pretty decent bit, and on top of that, were willing to do more as well. I demo'd the wall, but they took over after that. They moved all of the wall positions and rebuilt the walls to make the smaller bathroom and bigger bedroom. The drywall job was fantastic. John (or Jon) was the one who handled most of that. He hung the walls and smoothed out the mud. He was absolutely meticulous about it too. I haven't seen a smoother drywall job thus far. Kurt also tiled the bathroom which looks fantastic. Level as can be and the grout-lines are perfect. They installed the toilet (which I actually said I would do) as well as the vanity. When they ran electric through, they set me up with a line attached to a switch for a vanity light in case I wanted one and kept it behind the wall marked and ready for me. There are little details like that that make all the difference in there work, prepping for the future and making sure things will last. They left me a nice access hatch to the ceiling and made a nice molding for it which was an awesome addition for when I need to get up there. We said we would paint the rooms, but they wanted to at least prime them, and I'm very happy they did. They fixed a cracking ceiling and re-painted the whole thing too which is an amazing improvement over before. Overall, we aren't unhappy about a single thing. Kurt has been very responsive after-the-job about just questions on general things and that just shows the work ethics and quality of he and his group. Would I recommend them? Absolutely, without a doubt in my mind. Will I use them again? We already have asked and have two more projects for them later this year. If you have a project, HIRE THESE GUYS!"

"It went excellent!  Hi Tech Construction Co gave me a detail estimate of the job.  And compared to other estimates I received from several other companies, Hi Tech's was the most reasonably priced.  Hi Tech also gave me a timeline of the job from beginning to finish and they were right on target.  The crews showed up on time and carried out the job like experts - they surely looked like they knew what they were doing.  I noticed that they were very concerned about the safety of our neighbors, anybody passing by, their crews, and us.  They also cleaned everything right after they finished their job.  I was really happy with the timeliness and the quality of their job.  I will definitely strongly recommend Hi Tech.  I do not think you can go wrong with them.

"The technician did an excellent job. It did take a while to get the repair finished, but that was due to Bertazzoni delivering the parts. I have had multiple problems with this particular appliance. My range now works better than it did when new, but I have a feeling that even if I have continuing problems with it, American Home Shield will just repair rather than replace due to the cost of the range. By the way, I'm not exactly sure of the date of the repair."

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

Hiring a reliable home builder is an essential task, but there are a few questions you can ask a potential builder to ensure you they are trustworthy and up to the task:

  • How long do you expect the process to take?

  • Are you fully licensed and insured?

  • How much of the work will you subcontract?

  • Will you pull all of the necessary permits for the job?

  • How long is the builder’s warranty you include with your work?

  • How do you handle resolution for issues I might have with the finished product?

  • How much experience do you have?

Yes, such as using eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient designs for long-term savings.

Yes, a home builder or contractor should have the proper licensing and insurance. Licensing requirements vary by state and municipality, but most states mandate that a builder holds at least a general contractor’s license. For specialized work such as plumbing, electrical, roofing, or sewage systems, individual licenses may be required, in which case the builder may subcontract the work. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to review your local guidelines and confirm a builder's credentials. As you browse professionals, you can also look for the “Angi Certified” badge. This indicates the business meets our certification standards, which include passing a criminal background check, holding applicable state and local licenses, and maintaining an average rating of 3.0 or better.

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.

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.
