The good: Before we decided on AHP as our builder, I spent countless hours investigating numerous other builders on the Internet, viewing homes under construction and meeting with the builders. My short list of builders who made the cut ended up being Mungo's build on your lot division (which shut down before we made our builder decision and started up again some time later), Schumaker Homes and AHP. In the end AHP won out as I could find no complaints on the local BBB or various Internet sites. At that point in time, Angie's List had no reviews of AHP.
AHP made significant changes to a stock home plan they had per our desires and within our budget. They did a fine job of anticipating our needs in the design phase. We found them relatively easy to work with in the beginning and AHP was initially responsive to our needs. They completed the building within budget and we have a beautiful home- inside and outside. Building a new home is not for the faint of heart as there are many decisions that need to be made before and during the process, along with potential problems to deal with. I feel we excelled at these items, did an excellent job supporting the builder, the builder never had to wait on us for any reason and they knew what our expectations where.
The not so good: I was in the construction trade years ago. Building a home encompasses many trades, personnel, potential problems with the weather and building lot, along with potential supply problems outside of most local control. Plus the owners need to do their part to ensure their responsibilities are taken care of in a timely manner to keep things moving along smoothly. I get it. Been there, done that.
However I see no excuse for us having multiple roofing problems with water leaks, along with water supply line and electrical problems after we have moved in- especially since most of these issues were identified well before we took possession. Most of the issues identified by us were mentioned more than once to the builder previously and we thought they had all been addressed when we took possession and during that inspection. But there is nothing like living in a new home for a few months to identify problems. AHP became slow to respond to our needs and repairing significant items in the warranty period. I have to continually follow up with the builder to try and keep the process moving.
I am hopeful all of the issues will be ironed out in the near future but am unsure of this result.

Russell did an excellent job inspecting my new build home. He found a lot of things I would never have thought to look for. He even came back out to recheck after the check list was completed by the builders. I highly recommend!

FAQs for treehouse building projects in Batesburg-Leesville, SC
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
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.
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.
Knowing if you need an architect for your project can be tricky, especially if you've never worked with one before. In general, small remodeling projects like replacing fixtures typically don't require the expertise of an architect. However, larger projects, like moving walls or adding an addition to your home, should include an architect to ensure the project is structurally sound.
The cost to build a detached garage for two cars costs about $26,400 on average. Prices range from $19,200 to $33,600, depending on your location, the garage size, height, materials, and site prep required. Additional cost factors include any plumbing, electrical wiring, and insulation. If you need to build a concrete foundation for a new detached garage, you can expect to pay $1,000 to $8,600 for this essential addition.
