"Great. Had my basement finished. They put in a bathroom and finished rest of basement into a craft room. Love the way it turned out. I'm having them turning a small room into a pantry. I had to ask them for extra time before they start the pantry. My mother isn't well and i needed to take care of some things before i was ready to start on that. They were good at working with me. Would recomend them to anyone who needs work done."

"Bob and his colleague were detail-oriented, thorough and professional throughout the time they were in my home. They were cognizant of another obligation I had later that day and worked efficiently, but accurately to get the job done and done right. I would highly recommend Robert Horne Contracting!"

"Dan and his son are an absolute dream come true and no one in our family will ever hire somebody else. Are basement was completely unfinished, and in fact had a lot of our junk all over, and Dan was able to listen carefully to our ideas and thoughtfully make recommendations as to what would work best. The end result is honestly so much better than we ever imagined. Our kids now spend a lot of time in the basement playing games and making memories. We could not be happier with our decision to trust Dan, and in fact we miss seeing him like we did during the project! After finishing our basement, all of our friends asked who was able to do such a good job, and subsequently we've referred Dan and his son to our in-laws and also our good friends for major projects. Look no further, this is the team you are trying to find!"

"Crawford Construction was absolutely amazing with their work. Jesse and his team worked hard to get the work done fast. I was very pleased with the quality of my roof once it was finished. This is one local business that I plan to support over and over again."

Subcontractors questions, answered by experts

Building permits serve a few purposes, the most important of which is to keep you and the people around you safe by ensuring your contractor does work safely and to code. Permits also help your municipality tax your property appropriately, as taxes are based on land improvements and the upgrades you make to your home. Finally, permits ensure your project won’t have a negative impact on the environment or your neighbors.

While you will always work with a team of professionals at some point during your home build, homeowners with experience can take on some part of the process. Manage the initial brainstorm, brief writeup, and floor layout phase with minimal assistance before contacting a general contractor. And while you can purchase stock blueprints for some home designs, it's always best to speak with professionals when choosing one ideal for your property.

Depending on what the blueprints are for, a qualified draftsperson, contractor, or architect can draw them up. In some cases, including specialty permitting for a build, you may be required to use a licensed architect. 

In many cases, a blueprint drawn up by a certified professional is required before a city or municipality approves a permit. 

Costs depend on material, size, design complexity, and additional features like lighting or seating.

When you think about Arts and Crafts-style homes, you probably think of a Craftsman house or a bungalow-style Craftsman. Craftsman is one of the major styles developed during the Arts and Crafts movement, but it checks most boxes. Craftsman houses have low-pitched roofs, exposed rafters, open floor plans, and stunning wood finish.
