"Ryan has been an amazing person to work with! His knowledge and flexibility are the best I have dealt with in a long time. My wife is skeptical, when it comes to builders and contractors but after meeting him she was a believer and knew just how valuable he would be to us and our new home. Thanks for everything Ryan!"

Everything that this company does is done in excellence! John Valentino, the owner, is our go to person for any home remodeling or roofing that we need done. Yes, we would definitely recommend him & hire this company again!!"

"It went absolutely great!! Dennis was at my house within one hour of our initial conversation and had an estimate to me within 2 hours! They were professional, efficient and mindful of our 2 dogs. They cleaned up when they were finished and took all of the debrie. I've already got plans for my next project with Sustainable Designs!"

"The job went very well. The person that I spoke to in the office, John, was very knowledgeable, reasonable and helpful. I inadvertently sent the deposit to the wrong address. John didn't complain or change our scheduled install date. When I needed to delay the install (wasn't able to prep the site in time), he accepted it without any complaint. They built the shed on time, and didn't let recent rains affect our spot on the schedule. The builder Bob, was very pleasant and did a quick and professional job. Both Bob and John did a great job and were quite professional: they returned phone calls quickly. So, I do recommend this company."

"If you are looking to add a quality deck to your home, I would highly recommend working with Joseph Nasser. The entire experience from start to finish was fantastic. Joseph was the first company to contact me after requesting estimates from a few companies. He and his crew were efficient, professional, and very detail oriented. My existing deck was removed very quickly and then came the building of the substructure. I had done quite a bit of research and had experience with building decks. I was very pleased to see a detailed plan of the substructure and interested in watching it come together. The crew answered my many questions during the entire process and were extremely patient with some last-minute changes I requested on the steps and rail configuration. They went above and beyond to give me the deck of my dreams and I couldn’t be more pleased. I’ve already made plans to hire Joseph for another upcoming project. This is by far the best experience I've ever had with a contractor."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

It usually takes around four to six months to build and install a modular home, although your timeline could go up to around eight months if there are delays in the manufacturing or permitting process. Heavy site preparation and foundation pouring can extend that timeline if you need them, as can customizations you want for your modular home. Your modular home company should be able to provide an estimate for the construction timeline before you sign any contracts or agree to any work.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.

Historically, Tudor homes originally stemmed from the 15th and 16th centuries, while Victorians appeared during Queen Victoria's reign in the 19th century. The design and structural differences are significant as well. The many types of Victorian architecture—such as Italianate architecture—typically feature ornate trim, wood siding, wraparound porches, and tall towers on top, such as belvederes. On the other hand, Tudor-style homes feature white stucco exteriors with exposed wooden rafters marking the house frame both inside and out.

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.
