"Rich and his crew were awesome! Rich quoted me a price and never asked for more. His quote was very reasonable. He even replaced 3 other support posts that were not in the quote at no addition cost. His crew were meticulous and detailed and completed the deck in a timely manner. Upon completion they cleaned everything up and removed all debris. My wife and I could not have been more pleased and we would highly recommend Rich to anyone seeking deck building."

"We hired Wheelhouse to rebuild a building on our property that we thought had been destroyed by a large tree during a storm. Much to our surprise, they were able to save the building and make it even better than before. The work was done right: quickly and professionally. They kept us abreast of the progress and even stayed within our budget. We d definitely hire Wheelhouse Construction again should we ever decide to build a new home!"

"Great experience. The team was always on time and worked hard. They cleaned up at the end of everyday and when we mentioned a few TINY issues, they returned within the hour and corrected them, no questions asked. The owner is young, but he is great! I have several other large projects to do around the house and Sommercraft is it! Great prices too!"

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.

Historically, Tudor homes originally stemmed from the 15th and 16th centuries, while Victorians appeared during Queen Victoria's reign in the 19th century. The design and structural differences are significant as well. The many types of Victorian architecture—such as Italianate architecture—typically feature ornate trim, wood siding, wraparound porches, and tall towers on top, such as belvederes. On the other hand, Tudor-style homes feature white stucco exteriors with exposed wooden rafters marking the house frame both inside and out.

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.

One of the best ways to negotiate with a homebuilder is to forgo price reductions. Instead, negotiate over upgrades and incentives, as many builders are more willing to go down that road than to decrease their own fee. Even if they were willing to take a cut, a reputable homebuilder often knows their worth, so a willingness to negotiate could be a red flag. Beyond that, builders are typically willing to negotiate closing costs instead of offering a discount on the base price.

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.
