"Mike is well known as an honest and skilled professional builder. When we decided to downsize for retirement, I provided my ideas and budget for his assistance in developing a plan. Mike and his crew delivered a well-built home with all the features I wanted on time and below budget. We are loving living in our new home. We highly recommend Johnson Construction!"

"Russell Holsenback of R.H. Builders, LLC and his associate, Jose Reyes, just completed a screen porch replacement and replacement deck at our home. Their workmanship is excellent and we are extremely pleased with the resulting changes. They also built a drainage and outflow system effectively eliminating a water runoff issue away from the house to the outer yard. They are pleasant individuals who make a dynamic duo with their skillset, experience, knowledge, and expertise. Russell’s experience in his craft is extensive and is reflected in the first cut of wood, the first screw placed, and the first nail pounded. He listens well, makes sound suggestions, and is amenable to design/build changes. His skillset has been honed through the years by sheer practical participation and encountering events in his trade. He has a “can do” attitude with a great motto that he lives by, “there are no problems, just solutions”. Among the many talents of Jose is one of being a tile setter. He is meticulous in measuring, thoughtful in design ensuring precision cuts with clean edges and straight lines, and he seeks your opinion along the process. We are indeed happy with Russell and Jose and their craftsmanship in our remodel project."

"Like anyone that notices their home is starting to crack and move you feel overwhelmed. After hiring a structural engineer to tell us what what was going on we began the search for a foundation specialist. I interviewed three companies and after research selected CNT Foundations.
We are very happy with the outcome. They met all my criteria and deserve this recommendation. I expect excellence, attention to detail and integrity when I pay for a service. Victor and his three man crew met all these standards. I was kept informed, involved and allowed to observe what they were doing. The job site was left clean, my home was not damaged and the job was finished on time. Victor was on onsite to supervise every phase of the operation and address my questions. There was immediate follow-up to see if I was satisfied and I my account was adjusted when the cost of the service was less than expected. Before you go with a company that advertises on TV everyday give these guys a try. You will be glad you did.

Are you in need of a new roof? How would you like it to be the last time you had to worry about replacing your roof plus save thousands in the process? If your answer is yes then maybe I can help. I use metal roofing materials with a 40 year manufacturers warranty, lifetime roofing screws, plus a full trim package not just the colored eve. I have a few different options for the installation process depending on your budget but regardless of your choice I do quality work and I don't cut corners or take short cuts. I take pride in my work and I can back it up with references. I can guarantee you that I can repair your roof for half the cost of the average roofing contractor but at the same time use top of the line craftsmanship and top of the line materials. Metal is the cheapest and best way to reroof a home in more ways than one. The key is having a experienced metal roofer bidding your roof and installing your roof. Truth be told about your average roofing contractor, you'll get two options the first one being he will come measure and bid your roof for twice the cost hire whoever to slap it on never touch a tool you will only see him to collect a check and there is no telling what you might get and once he's paid you'll never see him again if it was to leak. Your second option would be your small time hardworking roofing company that has most of it's experience with shingles but will assure you that they can do metal with no problems. But in reality they use their own method when installing metal which may not leak but it will not be installed correctly cutting the lifespan of the roof in half. Metal roofing is a skilled trades of it's own and requires a experienced craftsman with that you will be amazed how much more your able to get out of your roof and save thousands in the process. If I can help you just give me a call my name is Mark 912-601-4050

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Framing is often the most expensive phase of building a house because it’s time-consuming and requires a lot of materials. It costs between $20,000 and $50,000 on average, depending on materials and labor costs. Before construction begins, it’s possible that purchasing land is the priciest step in the process. Some plots of land sell for $3,000, while others cost upwards of $150,000.

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.

Ranch and colonial-style homes are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average.

The average build timeline for a home is between six and 12 months, with timelines pushing toward the upper end of that range if you’re creating a custom design or need a lot of land preparation before getting started. Hiring a general contractor or a custom homebuilder will help speed up the process, as you’ll see fewer delays between different parts of the build process getting done.

Local regulations dictate how big an ADU can be, and there may also be restrictions on the percentage of the main residence’s square footage an ADU can have. In most cases, an ADU must be smaller than the main residence, but check with your local building authority to confirm restrictions on ADU size.
