"John Martin and his team have done great work for us. They have done several projects for us ( Shadow Box fence for our backyard, Extension wall for our staircase, capped the under side of our front porch/deck, and a few other things. John always answers his calls or returns messages asap and their work is top notch. I would recommend them to anyone looking for General/Full Home Building to give them a call."

"The technician did an excellent job. It did take a while to get the repair finished, but that was due to Bertazzoni delivering the parts. I have had multiple problems with this particular appliance. My range now works better than it did when new, but I have a feeling that even if I have continuing problems with it, American Home Shield will just repair rather than replace due to the cost of the range. By the way, I'm not exactly sure of the date of the repair."

"We got three bids on this roofing project on our primary 1390 sq. ft. residence. Two of our bidders were Angie's List recommendations. The third bidder wasn't but was highly recommended locally. John Jones, owner of Mid-Valley Building, was very professional and prompt. He showed up when scheduled and was prepared. He responded promptly when we asked for modifications to his bid and gave us other options to consider. We felt like we had selected a good team player when we signed our contract. He asked for half at signing and the remainder at completion. He was willing to take credit cards for payment which worked well for us. John and his teammates showed up at 7:00AM and were done by 3:30PM. John directed the roofing crew and his mother, Julie, did ground work cleanup. At the end of the day the roof was fully installed and the cleanup was perfect! At the end of the day we asked for a new roof on our garden shed and John responded with a good bid and completed that add-on within a week. All of his employees were pleasant and mindful or our property. We couldn't be happier and we highly recommend him and his crew! We will definitely use Mid-Valley Building again in the future. "

"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."
" - Arthur, owner, showed his concerns to the work his crew did, and stopped by my house. - The crew-leadsman was very professional and skillful.- The labor-hour special I purchased was fully utilized.- At the end of job, the work-site was fully cleaned."
"They did a real good job. They were real professional. We can now open the garage door from the inside of the house and now it is so smooth that we have to check to see if we hit the button to open it or close it. Before we used to know when it was opening or closing because it used to make a noise. It helps when you move to a city where you are new. "
A custom home is one that you design from the ground up, allowing you to customize everything from the square footage to the interior layout to all of the materials used. A spec home is one that a builder has designed and gotten approvals for. Spec homes may give you some limited options for the layout and materials, but most of the build is pre-set. Custom homes cost more and take longer to build.
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.
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.
Modular homes are a type of prefab home. Specifically, manufacturers first build modular homes in sections and then deliver them to the job site. The modules, or sections, are usually at least 70% finished before they arrive on your property.
In comparison, prefab homes arrive in panels or segments, and workers assemble them on-site. Generally speaking, modular homes tend to be more durable, and their consistent construction standards may mean you’ll have an easier time getting conventional home loans.
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.
