"AWESOME!!! They very friendly and very PROFESSIONAL. They complied with all my needs and still were very friendly after I made multiple color changes and new ideas up to the day before they started, I had them install a new roof, siding, gutters, front door, plus storm door and new windows (that had to be reframed do to size change that I wanted ) I would recommend them to anyone pricing was better then 3 other companies that I had come to my home."

"John and Nick were very responsive to requests and were always punctual and worked 6 days a week for months to finish our job. They came back multiple times to finish “punch list” items including caulking, trim, and paint touch ups. Sometimes I had to be involved in problem solving some of the hiccups that arose but often John and Nick also came with solutions to problems. Sometimes John and Nick informed us after the fact that something we asked them to do was “extra” so I would recommend establishing early and clearly to have change orders or confirmations of changes that cost extra, but even still for the work they did they completed and the quality we think the price was reasonable and fair. 


Now we are in our beautiful new home and are so so happy with what we have gotten thanks to John and Nick at JJ Construction- we couldn’t be happier and would recommend them for any job.

"Desmond and his team were very professional, prompt, and easy to work with. My husband and I have had numerous workmen in our home over the years and they were by far the best. I came home every night to a house where I could immediately start dinner without having to clean up after workmen. They were very mindful of my 88 year old mother who lives with us, making sure she was not inconvenienced."

"Working with CMP Home Remodeling was an wonderful experience from start to finish. After calling about 5 other contractors and only get 1 other call back/estimate, Brian got back to us right away, provided a detailed estimate, and scheduled our service with great efficiency.  His crew worked quickly and did a beautiful job that was reasonably priced. They were courteous and professional every step of the way. However, what made us repeat clients for CMP Home Remodeling was the fact that the day our concrete was poured and after the crew had cleaned up and left our home, our freshly poured concrete sidewalk was vandalized. Not knowing what to do, we called Brian just to see if there was anyway we could fix it; because we knew that this is something typically not covered by the contractor. However, despite that fact that it was almost 8pm, Brian headed back over to our house and was able to patch it for us himself.  Words cannot express how grateful we are to him for that and we think it is a testament to the level of professionalism and quality customer service your receive when dealing with CMP Home Remodeling- so much so that less than a month later we have hired them to do another project in our home."

"Dan and his son did a great job repairing a damaged plaster wall. The wall looks new! They also removed a wall/window AC unit and installed window, complete with beautiful new trim around the window. They had to remove siding and cut through the exterior wall of the house to enlarge the opening for the new window. The finished job looks beautiful."

"The construction went beautifully. Jeff Ramsey completed the bathroom and went above and beyond what we expected. Living in a home built in 1847 has its challenges as in needing to reinforce the floor to ensure this old house would support our newly tiled floors, tiled shower with glass doors, claw foot tub and marbled vanity. He was so calm and reassuring during the process which reflected on how we dealt with the renovation ourselves. He was extremely conscientious and reliable and that's why we have just hired Ramsey Builders for our addition that is underway now. The bathroom renovation went great and we have all the confidence in the world in Ramsey Builders."

"MCG Construction did an excellent job on repairing the foundation and walls of our garage. Great communication throughout the process. Very professional workmen and great quality work. Their quote and total price for the project was far less than another company that suggested completely demolishing the old garage and building a new one. The final price of MCG's garage work was less than what they estimated it would be, because after removing parts of the garage they discovered there was already a foundation that they could build upon instead of having to excavate and pour a new foundation. Overall a very good experience. I would definitely use them again."

"Ron did a great job on this complete home refresh. It was nice to have a single point of contact for roofing, windows, siding, stucco, painting, and garage doors. Even though this project took several months to complete, Ron did a good job of keeping us informed."

"As with most families during the pandemic, we found a new to create additional living spaces. When we embarked on our home addition project to repurpose our existing 2 car garage as new living areas and add a new 3 car garage, we interviewed 3-5 contractors and ultimately selected JM Drafting & Contracting. We chose them after reviewing a similar project in neighboring Blue Bell. They did an excellent job; along the project Jimmy was responsive, provided insight on weekly project tasks and offered details to ensure our needs and building plans were met. Overall, we are beyond pleased with the finished product and how well the project went. We are extremely glad we went with JM Drafting & Contracting and would highly recommend them for your future home renovation or project."

"The project went great. We were renovating a multi unit building, it was our first big project and we didn’t have all the answers to the various issues that arose. Cozy Home were flexible and adaptive to our needs. They are capable on all levels and knew how to guide the project forward even though we weren’t there on the ground. High quality painting, tile work, cabinetry, they could do it all. They are friendly and trustworthy and I would recommend them to anyone looking to get a project done."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

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

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.

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

While it’s never too early to start planning for a major home improvement project like a home addition, give yourself at least a month or two to plan and design your addition, find a contractor, and get the permits in order. For larger projects like a second-story addition that require designing with an architect, plan on three to four months of preparation.

How long it takes to build a log cabin depends on a variety of factors, including its size and design, and whether or not you have to clear the land. Construction can take a few weeks for a prefab log cabin on an established site, but up to eight or nine months for a custom cabin on undeveloped land. In comparison, the timeline to build a house is typically four to 12 months.
