"After a year of renovations to our new home, benefitting from work with wonderful professionals, this is one who needs to be exposed to the community. This contractor took a substantial payment to remove an inner wall that needed a beam to be installed in the ceiling for support. His employee removed the wall and finished the work without installing the beam. This employee was emotionally unstable, threatening us when we communicated poor quality of work back to Jim. Needless to say, our ceiling is sagging and cracking. We made him aware of this August, 2023, and he promised to fix it repeatedly with a final deadline of January 15th. No word from him since early December. We have paid out of pocket for an engineer and repair to begin today with another contractor. This man not only left us in a truly dangerous situation, but he is emotionally unstable and put us through a rollercoaster of excuses, manipulation, and nasty texts. His license has been suspended and he has many previously logged complaints with the licensing board. BEWARE OF ANY PROPOSALS FOR WORK FROM JIM TOKUNAGA, or his business fronts, B&T ELECTRICAL CONTRACTING, ADVANCED BUILDING & CONSTRUCTING LLC, and various other “businesses.”"

Asset Home Services is proud to design, deliver and install Carolina Heartwood Cabinetry in Columbia, SC and surrounding areas. Our beautiful cabinets have amazing architecture, design and the best finishes available. Our cabinets are not only beautiful but are available at a price to fit everyone’s budget. Our cabinets are flat-packed, “ready to assemble” or RTA cabinet, with an option for Asset Home Service assembly and installation. Why give the customer an option for unassembled flat-packed cabinets? Because if the customer chooses the unassembled option, it affords a lower price point. Our product line consists of classic colors: Mocha Java stain and Vanilla Creme paint – and both options glazed, “Cinnamon” and Linen White stain color. Our door styles consist of a Shaker and a Wilmington design. We can also paint all of our stock cabinets any color that you can imagine! Our CHC cabinets have the best finish available, a UV-cured non-yellowing chemical resistant T-6 ( the best) clear coat on all cabinet interior parts, boxes, shelves, drawers, backs, etc. These finishes can only be factory applied with a special UV roll coat machine, which allows the finished product to posses all these attributes. Our cabinets have four color options at this time. Both the Raleigh (cream painted look) and the Charlotte (mocha stain look) have an ACID CATALYZED CONVERSION COATING. On the Raleigh cabinet there is a primer, colored topcoat, and a clear coat that is an acid catalyzed conversion coating. The Charlotte cabinet has stain and glaze with two coats of the clear acid catalyzed conversion coating. Both our Salem and our Wilmington offerings utilize a conversion coated finish for extreme durability. All of our cabinets far exceed the standard for national KCMA which means that our cabinets are chemically resistant, UV resistant, and most important of all – scratch resistant. Asset Home Services has also been building new homes, renovating homes and inspecting homes throughout the Columbia area for the past 15 years. Many people are second, even third, time customers, showing our dedication to customer satisfaction. We are licensed, bonded and fully insured. We can turn a difficult and uninformed decision into a easier well informed one. For a modest investment, the yield is high and we guarantee our service to you. We look forward to working with you.

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits. 

While many different factors determine whether a house is classified as a villa, many villas are detached homes with a European design influence, often with an emphasis on luxury and comfort. Modern villas often feature outdoor spaces such as terraces, gardens, or patios.

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. 

How long it takes to build a custom home or rebuild a home after a disaster varies depending on many factors, but averages between seven and 14 months. Smaller homes or homes that don’t need a re-poured foundation may take less time to build than larger homes or homes without an existing foundation. Material availability, contractor schedules, and permit and inspection timelines can all affect how long your house takes to build.

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.
