"They make life easy and projects exceptional. Grateful to have them in Lexington, SC! We worked with Palmetto Renovations from fall of 2023 through February of this year and we should have connected with their design specialty showroom and staff years ago as our home has never looked better. Our kitchen finally features real stone quartzite with a blend of stunning LVP waterproof flooring, elegant tiled backsplash and an entirely new lighting system from chandeliers to the under cabinet lighting. They replaced a window in the bay area to match the exterior clad. All trim was stained and by the time things were wrapped up, there were no imperfections to even address. It was an experience to brag about."

"Choice Home Builders LLC (Mack Brazell and associates) was the general contractor for a repair job at our mother’s home in Northeast Columbia. If you want an honest, reliable and reasonable contractor – call Mack Brazell. The scope of the project was to repair a roof/siding leak; and install new wall/ceiling sheetrock and flooring where leak damage had occurred. After contacting several others, Mack is the only one who told us he COULD do it and WOULD do it! 1. Quality of work performed. The quality of work done was superior. Throughout the project, we were impressed with Mack’s commitment to generating a top-quality product. He really cared about doing the job right! He identified the problem and worked quickly to stop a long-term roof leak right before Hurricane Florence hit SC. Repairs to the roof, ceilings and walls was perfect. Mack and associates were extremely professional, courteous, and respectful of our mother’s home and her availability. 2. Integrity and professionalism. Kept his word, kept us informed, was trustworthy and dependable. These attributes were greatly appreciated – especially in today’s world of shoddy repairmen. He always called before he showed up to inform us when he was coming. 3. Value. Choice Home Builders provided great work at a reasonable price. Mack went above and beyond what he quoted us…..we were pleasantly surprised at the amount we actually paid. In summary, Mack Brazell is reliable and trustworthy builder who can repair or construct any type of residential building. Possesses a great personality and work ethic, easy to work with, and very respectful of the customer and environment. We can’t say enough about how pleased we are with Choice Home Builders LLC."

"Built a brand new home for us 2.5yrs ago. We had some land, put up a 4,000 sqft brick home. They are local and they are good people, family feel type of business. They do a lot of hand holding, when you invest this kind of money that is something you want. They did a bang up job!"

"Excellent. David has a conscience, which places him in a lonely category of builders. He wants to make sure it is done right, and he will communicate. Be patient because good work takes time and understand he does this for a LIVING, not a charity. In other words....be reasonable."

"EXCELLENT! At this point I am a repeat customer of CHOICE HOME WARRANTY. Choice is the stand-out exception among its competitors. As a purchaser, one can reasonably expect that the Choice agents whom you deal with today will still be with Choice, if and when you have a reason for contacting Choice again later. Choice offers "transferrable" home warranty policies, which means that, if you later sell your home you can transfer the warranty policy coverage to your buyer, OR alternatively you can transfer your Choice warranty coverage over to cover the "new" home that you purchase. Choice also offers substantial discounts for the cost of "extended" policies that cover multiple year periods. Overall, Choice is outstanding in the home warranty coverage field."

"I first met Scott with this company when he was doing my parents home and my mom was raving about his work. Later on, he had done one of their friends homes as well remodeling their kitchen. Well, when I noticed the bottom of my shower cracked I knew exactly who to call and was pleased with him as well! He is able to take an idea and expand on it making it better than my original one. He is an artist when it comes to his work. He was able to save me some money by getting me a deal on a certain type of tile and allowing me to upgrade from the pre fab type stuff I already had in my house. I am soo planning on a major project to my kitchen soon and will be calling on this company again.

"First, they were extremely prompt in their response.  They came out and provided a great quote and spoke candidly about the repairs I wanted done and what was really needed.  There was complete honesty on their part and that was very much appreciated. I was assuming I needed a lot of work but when they actually explained to me the details of the job that needed to be done it was far less severe than I thought.  There was plenty of opportunity for the company to take advantage of my ignorance and willingness to pay but that's just not how they work.  I would highly recommend MD Masonry to anyone with any masonry needs, whether big or small!  Absolute professionals, very attentive, and honest!!

Home Building questions, answered by experts

It is a good idea to check in with your local city and state regulations before committing to building a shipping container home no matter where you live. This concept is pretty new across the country, and many places won’t let you build one.

The International Code Council (ICC) offers guidelines for home builders on the safe use of ISO intermodal shipping containers repurposed as building components, which can be helpful to review when planning or designing a shipping container home.

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.

It usually takes around four to six months to build and install a modular home, although your timeline could go up to around eight months if there are delays in the manufacturing or permitting process. Heavy site preparation and foundation pouring can extend that timeline if you need them, as can customizations you want for your modular home. Your modular home company should be able to provide an estimate for the construction timeline before you sign any contracts or agree to any work.

It pays to hire a project manager or general contractor when you have a large-scale project that will take over a week to complete, especially when it involves structural changes and multiple subcontractors. This includes hiring a general contractor to build a house, add an extension, or manage other projects that need a building permit.

A carriage house is a freestanding building, while a townhouse is connected to other units. A townhouse is a full single-family home and typically shares a parcel of land with other connected homes. A carriage house is rarely used as the sole single-family home on a property and is most often an additional building sharing property with a traditional single-family home.
