Best custom home builders near Eighty Four, PA

"Wolfe's construction did an excellent job! They were communicative, efficient, and did high-quality work."

As a homebuilder in Southwestern PA, I find that potential Buyers seeking to build a new home are not familiar with today’s common methods of residential construction which include on-site 'stick built' or off-site 'modular' built. These include ranch, cape cod, and 2-story homes that are identical in style and built to the same building code with the modular home constructed in a climate controlled friendly environment and transported 85% complete to the job site in modules. The modular home has many more benefits including up to a 50% reduction in heating & cooling costs plus installed on a full basement foundation. Conversely, a mobile/trailer home is built to a much less stringent building code and set on blocks. While 'mobile' homes may be built for less than $100,000, the homes built to the universal building code, both site built and modular, start at $300,000 excluding the lot. Those seeking to build the traditional home styles should qualify for financing to cover those costs.

"The addition that he designed and built was an excellent solution to our problem. It is both functionally sound (with a heater, fan and windows) and aesthetically pleasing (it matches the architecture of the rest of our house). O’Dell Contracting also repaired and replaced damaged paneling in our first-floor home office while doing an outstanding job of matching the existing wood stain. Other aspects of the repair project included drywall repair and replacement of carpeting and tile in two additional rooms which were also impacted. I recommend O’Dell Contracting Inc. without reservation! Dean O’Dell definitely takes an active interest in making sure that the repair job is done in a quality and timely manner."

"This was my third time working with this contractor and each project was a pleasurable experience! As was the case with the other two, they started this project on time and finished on time! All the work was done according to strict Mount Lebanon code. They made suggestions based upon their experience i.e we wanted a six foot high shadow box fence but while Mount Lebanon code allows for a six foot high privacy fence of just about any style, they do not allow, by code, a six foot high shadowbox fence. Steve Hilpert proceeded to build us a 4 foot high shadowbox fence (the maximum height allowed by code) with a custom built 2 foot high trellis section which Mount Lebanon subsequently approved. The fence looks beautiful!
I was nervous about cutting a big hole in the wall of our addition to install the sliding glass door. Now the door looks like it has been there all along! It came out PERFECTLY!
The deck is also beautiful and solid as a rock! We had an issue with the location of our two central air conditioning units off the back of the house. The other contractors (which I found here on Angie's List as well) said they would just build over these units. Not knowing anything about central air conditioning this seemed reasonable to me. Steve was the ONLY contractor who told me that you absolutely CAN NOT block the air flow above the units! Not only that, he was honest enough to tell me that moving the units should be done by a qualified HVAC contractor. Now that is a contractor you can trust!
All work was completed on time and within budget. The same crew arrived early each day and were polite and professional. The job site was spotless at the end of each day!
If you are looking for a trustworthy, professional contractor, you can not go wrong with SC Hilpert!!!"

"The first time we have hired anyone to do remodeling for us and we hit the jackpot! Showed up on time every day if we had any questions he answered and kept the bathroom project on budget. So we hired Beatty Remodeling again for a new roof and a side porch and railings we have zero complaints professional and knowledgeable"

"Great! They were quick and professional and did a wonderful job on my fence."

"It went well, they are very customer service oriented. Cris is the best! Workmanship was good and all encompassing. Very impressed with the granite installers leaving me with only 1 seam in a tight space."

"Mark and Judy at Central Lending were the best that I have worked with in the industry, I absolutley would recommned them for your finanacial needs for your home. The were understanding and had all of the resources that we needed. They both were extremely professional and definately know the business. I will never use another provider and will HIGHLY recommend them to all of my clients (I am also a realtor). I can not say enough about this company.

"We were so pleased with the work we had done. In fact they were very helpful in keeping our expenses within our budget while allowing us to upgrade and making our home so progressive yet cozy. We told our our friends about La Villla."

"We called Machen for an estimate to tear off our old roof on our house and detached garage. They were very responsive and Jodi even came out on a Saturday to give us an estimate. He was very knowledgeable regarding the materials and products we needed, and we were impressed that he actually climbed the roof to take all of the measurements, where other contractors we had contacted did not. The estimate we received was fair considering that the roof deck would need wrapped and the amount of ice guard we needed. Jodi and his team were on time every day and got right to work. They took their time on the job and were very conscientious about the work performed to ensure it was done correctly. Jodi takes a lot of pride in ensuring the job site remains neat and takes a lot of care to ensure they thoroughly clean up before leaving for the day. We ran into heavy rain halfway through the project and Jodi even came out on the weekend to ensure that the roof was water tight before the rain hit. The new roof looks great and we are very pleased with the end result!"
