"My basement was to be repaired (plumbing) and remodeled. Bathroom in basement has no trap in shower floor, electric (recess) lights are all on one breaker (8), didn't finish walls trim is falling off, and it's not painted (never came back) and Floor is not leveled. Upstairs bathroom was a full gut job. They didn't replace any electrical wiring or housing, shower leaks and so does the shower glass door (uneven). They damaged my vanity (floating) pipes were to come out off wall, they left them coming out of floor and drilled holes in vanity to make it fit. Never painted bathroom (upstairs) left old door/window molding, never replace bathroom door slapped a ton of primer on door and molding. The sub pump in basement is not working properly water still comes in basement with heavy rain. All he did was put lipstick on a pig and lie about the replacement of electric and plumbing. He's work is far from professional and he doesn't take responsibility for any mess up from his crew (they steal) or himself. Hired him for the job in May and finished in November. They had to replace the ceiling in living room twice (pipeline) was never replaced. All he did was cover up and patchwork. George was been contacted several times a week until he changed his phone number. Upstairs bathroom toilet is connected to the hot water line as well."

I have been a licensed architect since 1988, practicing in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In 2005, I launched my own firm with emphasis on single family and multi-family residential design, commercial building design and fit-out and institutional design for public entities with a focus on administrative and justice projects. I have a wide and deep range of experience with residential, commercial and institutional clients. I work well with clients, developers, builders and construction managers. I understand the process and value of the primary project delivery methods including design-bid-build and design-build. Stylistically, my philosophy is to fit in with the local style, while maintaining integrity and fluidity of design. Architectural heroes: Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Kahn, Frank Furness, Henry Hobson Richardson.

"David was professional, gave excellent recommendations and was a true pleasure to work with. Really willing to work with us on getting our project finalized and approved and was easy to reach with any questions or changes. Defintely recommend!"

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Yes, such as using eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient designs for long-term savings.

The longest part of building a custom home is the design phase. It takes multiple professionals and a ton of work to bring your vision for your dream home to life while sticking to a homebuilding budget and also ensuring everything is built to code. Expect the design phase for a custom home build to take six months to a year.

If you want to make your home eco-friendly, enjoy low maintenance, and love the fact that its looks will take people’s breath away (and not because they were trying to blow your house down), then a modern brick home is right for you. You can hire a mason to get the building process started for your brick home.

But if you’re not fond of the color and don’t want to deal with the process of repointing or other repairs, consider going with vinyl or wood. These materials offer a lower cost. While they tend to require more maintenance, they don’t cost nearly the same as exterior brick house repair.

Green homes are often more expensive to build, averaging around $200 per square foot compared to the $150 per square foot you’d spend to build a standard home. However, green homes can save you money on your utility bills by consuming less energy or creating energy using solar panels or wind turbines on-site. They’re more expensive to build, but they often end up costing less in the long run.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
