"Very happy with the work done by Wesley! Just had a full bathroom remodel completed in an old Philly rowhome. We had an initial plan but then discovered additional damage after the old tiling was taken out. Wesley came back with a very budget-conscious proposal and was able to finish the job in a timely manner, with plenty of attention to detail to make sure we were left with an excellent finished product. Definitely would recommend!"

"We recently began planning to renovate our apartment and were searching for an architect who could provide a signed drawing to help us navigate the building permit process. During our search, we had a phone conversation with a project manager from a potential contracting company, and we were thoroughly impressed. He was incredibly patient in listening to the challenges we were facing with obtaining the permit. He took the time to explain each step in great detail, including some critical steps we had missed during our first attempt. His company also has a skilled architect who could handle the drawing process. What stood out the most was the project manager’s solid experience working with government staff for permit approval and his ability to oversee the entire renovation project. This made him a very strong candidate to help us address our permit issues. We deeply appreciate the time he dedicated to our project and his invaluable knowledge and patience during our phone call.

FAQs for home building projects in Elkins Park, PA

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

The pros and cons or advantages and disadvantages of building a new house include:

Pros:

  • It’s all new, so you should have several years before you need to pay for major repairs like a new roof. 

  • It’s under warranty, so many fixes within that warranty period should be covered.

  • You get to build the house to your specifications.

Cons:

  • You have to make a LOT of decisions.

  • You will almost certainly deal with building delays.

  • It can take a lot of work to stay within your budget.

  • Building can be more expensive than buying an existing house.

Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity. 

The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.

Hiring a contractor to build your home is a big commitment. So be sure to ask as many questions up front as possible. Here are a few questions to ask a prospective home builder:

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

  • Do you have worker’s compensation?

  • How long have you worked with your subcontractors?

  • How do you handle garbage and waste disposal?

  • Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • Do you give free estimates?

  • Do you offer design services?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • Can you provide at least three references?

  • Can I see some of the work you’ve done?
