Q: Should a home builder or contractor be licensed and insured?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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&rsquo;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 &ldquo;Angi Certified&rdquo; 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.</p></div>

Q: Is it more affordable to gut a house than build a new home?

• <div><p>Whether it&rsquo;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&rsquo;s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. </p><p>Most homeowners pay between <b>$100,000 and $200,000</b> for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-build-house.htm">cost to build a new home</a> is between <b>$139,000 and $531,300</b>. </p></div>

Q: Is it less expensive to renovate or build a new house?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/renovate-vs-remodel.htm">Renovating or remodeling</a> an existing structure is usually less expensive than the cost to build a new house. That&rsquo;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. </p></div>

Q: Why are houses built with crawl spaces?

• <div><p>The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They&rsquo;re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they&rsquo;re at less of a risk of freezing.</p></div>

Q: How long does a green home take to build?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-it-takes-to-build-custom-home.htm">build timeline for a home</a> is between six and 12 months, with timelines pushing toward the upper end of that range if you&rsquo;re creating a custom design or need a lot of land preparation before getting started. Hiring a general contractor or a custom homebuilder will help speed up the process, as you&rsquo;ll see fewer delays between different parts of the build process getting done.</p></div>

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"Well folks, let me tell you about this awesome roofing company - Outdoor Creations Roofing(OCR). I'd been watching this company from week to week on different roofs in our Nottingham neighborhood in Broken Arrow. From start to finish, the workers will have the roofs done in 2-3 days; leaving each home with an immaculate new roof....WOW! Then one day, I received that 'special' knock at my door, to be greeted with a big smile, good handshake, and great professionalism. These guys run an awesome and professional business. Word of mouth is always good, but putting it in writing is even better! This company, OCR, provided a great LIFETIME product throughout our neighborhood for the betterment of our homes. I strongly advice that you use this company and forget about the others! GREAT JOB OCR!!! The Brimleys"

He wasn’t the lowest, but he was near the bottom. In terms of the quality of the product, I couldn’t be happier. I love the quality. I would absolutely recommend them. They did a really nice job. In fact, whilst it was near the cheapest, nothing was skimped."
