Customers say: Quick response

"I have used Timco Builders three times now. The sliding glass door replacement was the last. Tim has always been prompt to appointments and dependable and highest quality of work. In addition to excellent work he was very considerate regarding my home. He was very neat in his work and cleaned up after the job was done, or he left for the night to return the following day. I have other things I am going to do in my home in the future and I will always hire Timco Builders."

"It went very well.  He was very detail oriented and there were no hidden costs.  The bathroom turned out even better than we imagined.  We were on vacation when he worked on the bathroom and when we came home our bathroom was nicer than the resort we were staying at!  He had a lot of great ideas and was willing to work with us on what we wanted.  The subcontractors that came in were great as well."

"If you want quality workmanship, consistent and accurate communication, and honest bidding, Scott Padgett of American Made Contractors should be your contractor of choice for your next remodeling project. This is our second time working with Scott; our first project was small - repairing our cement front porch and then tiling it. Our front porch looks beautiful, thanks to Scott Padgett. When we decided to finish our basement, adding a full bathroom, bedroom, living and dining area and kitchenette, Scott Padgett was our first and only choice. As in our first experience, Scott's vision and talent, along with his professional and talented contractors, gave us a stunning addition to our home. If you are looking for a person you can trust to complete your next project, you should put your faith in Scott Padgett of American Made Contractors."

"RA Cooks Renovations was a pleasure to work with. They have completed all of my major home Renovations. The renovated 3 bathrooms, my home salon, enclosed my sun room and redid a wall in my living room that was infested with termites. I'm completely satisfied with all work performed. I will soon be hiring them again to remodel my kitchen."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

It is a good idea to check in with your local city and state regulations before committing to building a shipping container home no matter where you live. This concept is pretty new across the country, and many places won’t let you build one.

The International Code Council (ICC) offers guidelines for home builders on the safe use of ISO intermodal shipping containers repurposed as building components, which can be helpful to review when planning or designing a shipping container home.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

Renovating or remodeling an existing structure is usually less expensive than the cost to build a new house. That’s because you can save on the costs of new building materials, laying a foundation, framing the entire building, and installing new materials and utilities throughout the house. However, if a home is in very poor condition or is incredibly old, you could spend more on upgrades and restoration compared to building from scratch.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.
