"David and crew exceeded my expectations with their professionalism, communication, and quality of work - from start to finish. When I first contacted ODB, they referred me to Gayle, a landscape/hardscape architect, who helped me design the project. Gayle took into account my vision for using the space, budget, and considerations of the yard. And even recommended materials to use. After the plan was designed, David quickly quoted the project and we got started. The project went smoothly due to David and crew's constant and clear communication. And the workmanship of the crew was top notch and they were a pleasure to work with. About 6 months after the project was completed there was a small issue with some of the pavers. David and crew immediately responded and rectified the issue. Showing that the excellent customer service extended past the project end date. I wouldn't hesitate to use David and ODB again!"

"Highly recommend the team at Casita! We began consulting with them before we even bought our home. It was built in 1899 and we knew we needed reliable contractors if we had a hope of updating it. Casita helped with custom woodwork on the exterior and some of the design on the interior. What a transformation!"

Chris and his team were very responsive to our needs and questions while handling all the details which made our projects easy. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality contractor and will be in contact for future projects."

"We heard about Derrick through my son. Derrick and his crew did an AWESOME job on our pool house. He hand picked the materials to get the very best to use. They were very detailed on every part of this. He could have charged us alot more for what he did but he stayed honest and did the work for what his estimate was. We found our new company for every project we do from here on out. I would recommend Building Better Homes Management to everyone. Thank you Derrick and crew for an excellent job."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

It’s typically more cost-effective to move a building along with its accessories than to demolish and rebuild it from scratch. However, that’s only if you can move the accessories without damaging them. However, if you plan to demolish the accessories anyway, it is advisable to do so before the move to save costs.

How long it takes to build a log cabin depends on a variety of factors, including its size and design, and whether or not you have to clear the land. Construction can take a few weeks for a prefab log cabin on an established site, but up to eight or nine months for a custom cabin on undeveloped land. In comparison, the timeline to build a house is typically four to 12 months.

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.

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.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
