"We hired Western Paver Design based off of a friend s experience as they had just remodeled their backyard. Their property looked amazing after the remodel and I was convinced to give Joe Fisher a call after learning how thorough WPD is with all their jobs. The great John Wooden once said, If you don t have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it again. This really sums up the meticulous approach to craftsmanship that the WPD crew has. For our project, we had our 30 year old deck torn down and the concrete pool deck below ripped up due to invasive tree roots lifting the concrete. Demolition was a breeze that basically took one day. After demo was over, the head of Joe s crew, Darwin, got down to work with crafting a solid, level foundation to lay down new pavers as well as the footings for the new deck. Darwin made light work of the pavers and two new retaining walls on our property. That work alone really transformed our back yard into a new space. Once the pavers were down, it was time for the 14 x 12 deck to go up. To complicate things, we asked for a roof over the deck that was attached to the home s roof and that it look like an original feature of the house. This was truly no problem for WPD as the new addition to our home went up without a hitch. All our neighbors can say as they come over is Wow! because the craftsmanship is amazing and really shows due to the beautiful cedar wrapped posts and tongue and groove ceiling. In addition to the deck, pavers and retaining walls, we also had WPD design and build a 7 foot privacy fence. With over 380 feet of fence line this was a daunting task, but no match for WPD. The fence looks spectacular and is solidly built. WPD also cleaned up the side of our house by adding new steps, which look fantastic. They also added a sliding barn door to our unsightly pool equipment area. Now the area looks professionally finished as well as being more functional. Last but not least, we added a slide right next to the new stairway. We had no idea how this would finish, but Darwin and his ingenuity led to a solution that we were more than happy with. Utilizing left over Trex composite decking from the deck build, they created a cute little platform to step up to the slide that our kids instantly began to enjoy. Our experience with Western Paver Design was ultimately a pleasure. Joe is personable and has a great crew. We loved the work and experience so much that we are having WPD back to redo our front yard in the Spring."

"Quad construction's bid came in at 30 percent under the other bid we received. The work was done on-time, within budget and we were kept in the loop on decisions and options throughout the process. They had several excellent suggestions for ways to enhance the original design without adding much to the cost. I would highly recommend them and will definitely contact them for any other carpentry or construction work we need done."

"service provider sent by American Home Shield was excellent. The only issue I have with home warranty services is that they do not send their repair companies out on the week-end, even in an emergency. The customer service personnel is less than enthusiastic or helpful."

"I needed to have my roof replaced along with 5 skylights.  Mid Valley Building provided a very detailed bid and the price came in at least a few thousand dollars under any other bids I received, this included the price of new skylights. Not only did they provide Excellent service, but the installation was done with honesty, integrity and professionalism.  This company is family owned and displays wonderful ethics. They showed up on time with a great crew and completed the installation in two and a half days.  Not only were they prompt, but they made sure to leave the areas around the house cleaned up every day.  I chose Owens Corning Tru Def Duration Series roofing and was so very glad I did since I'm in a high wind and rain area.  They were very courteous and a pleasure to have around.  I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone looking for honesty, integrity and professionalism in a contractor. I'm a very happy customer and for any other major construction or repairs to be done, they will be are my first call.  In fact, they will be doing some door replacement and decking work for me in the near future.  This was an awesome experience!  Kudos to John, the family and crew!"

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

To get a quote from a builder or general contractor, contact them over the phone or online and explain your project. If you already have house plans drawn up, they’ll need to review them to determine the project's scope before providing you with a quote. Ask for your quote in writing and compare quotes from several pros before choosing the best one for your needs.

There are energy-efficient options when building a cottage. Select green building materials, high-performance insulation, and energy-efficient windows when designing your cottage. Options such as solar panels, efficient HVAC systems, and LED lighting can lower your utility bills and reduce your environmental impact. Many builders offer energy-efficient upgrades as part of the design process.

On average, the cost of a home builder is about $150 per square foot, but that price can range from around $100 to $400 per square foot or more. That puts the typical price range of a standard, 2,000-square-foot house between $200,000 and $800,000. Some factors that affect the price of hiring a home builder include the following:

  • Location of your home and the living cost in the area

  • Type of foundation and framing you choose

  • Quality of the building materials

  • Footprint and layout of the house

  • Number of stories

  • Builder’s experience

Handypeople usually don’t hold trade licenses, so they typically aren’t qualified to tackle projects involving installing or making alterations to plumbing or electrical lines. Below are some jobs that a handyperson usually won’t be able to complete:

  • Installing plumbing for a new kitchen or bathroom

  • Replacing plumbing pipes

  • Installing or repairing septic systems

  • Running new electrical wiring

  • Installing a subpanel

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.
