"I recently completed a new home designed by David Coleman Architecture of Seattle, one of the leading modern architects in the country. The design was highly site‑specific and architecturally complex, so choosing the right builder was critical. After interviewing several builders, I chose Tim Kern and Conquest Homes because I felt the right level of professionalism, confidence, and integrity from them. That instinct proved absolutely right. Tim's team executed a challenging modern plan with precision, top‑tier craftsmanship, and a clear respect for the architect’s vision. Modern architecture is not common in this region, yet they delivered it flawlessly—on time, at a competitive cost, and with exceptional quality. They monitored subcontractors closely and ensured every detail aligned with the architect’s specifications. Conquest Homes exceeded every expectation. If you’re building a home where quality and fidelity to design truly matter - there is no better choice."

"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.

"We found Accubuilt on Angie's List.  We gave them a call and from the first interaction were very pleased.  They were professional and courteous.  They came out and reviewed the various things we needed to have done on our house.  We discussed several things with them including installing vinyl siding and replacing our roof.  In the end we decided to only do the siding now.  But we definitely will have them back next year to replace the roof.  Once we agreed on the work to be done, we scheduled to have the work begin the following week.  They showed up on time, worked late and were done in just 2 days.  They did an excellent job on the work and even did an excellent job in cleaning up after themselves.

"He did an excellent job painting the inside and out side my house, installed a security front storm door and repaired my roof. I would recommend Kevin Wheeler highly to do any of your home repairs. He is just not only a handy man, but a handy man who gets the job done in an adequate time frame and to his customer satisfaction."

"He was very professional told us what we needed too do he didn't push us in any way have never meet a person that helped us the way he did. This is not the only thing he has contracted to do for us. We are thankful that we Met him".  We also contracted him about 15 years ago to build our home.  The job went as scheduled and he built us a beautiful custom home.  He is all about the details and we wanted custom features to fit our needs.  If we ever build another house, Rodney is the one that we will choose.  We couldn't have asked for a better experience and professionalism than what he gave us. 
Thank you Rodney for such a great job.

"The job was completed one week after the estimate. The crew that came completely covered all bushes, decks and other parts of yard. They completed the job in one day and it is beautiful. The job included architectural shingles, new roof vents, drip edge.
and chimney flashings. When finished, they completely cleaned up all areas of the yard. This was one of the nicest and most professional jobs that we have ever had done. Many thanks to Steve and his crew!!

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

The average cost to renovate or remodel a home is $52,300, with most projects ranging from $19,500 to over $88,400. However, costs can vary significantly, from as low as $3,000 for a small project to $170,000 or more for a complete home remodel.

Several factors influence the total price, including:

  • Project Scope and Size: The extent of the renovations, whether it's a single room or the entire house.

  • Location: Geographic location affects labor and material costs.

  • Materials: The quality of materials chosen.

  • Room Type: Kitchen remodels ($14,500 - $70,000+) are generally more expensive than bedroom remodels ($1,500 - $5,500).

  • Other Factors: The time of year, complexity of the work, and any additions or expansions.

On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $15 and $60 for standard projects and up to $150 for luxury renovations.

Examples of specific project costs include:

  • Basement remodel: ~$20,200

  • Garage remodel: ~$27,900

  • Loft conversion: ~$20,200

  • Disability accommodation remodel: ~$4,300

  • Major home repairs: ~$11,700

If you are financing the project, note that some loan programs, like the FHA 203(k), may require a minimum project cost (e.g., $5,000) and will necessitate a home appraisal and professional cost estimates. Using a home renovation cost estimator can also help you budget for your project.

A contractor can install your shipping container home in as little as 90 days. This is notably quick compared to a traditional home build, which can take more than a year (providing there aren’t permitting or construction delays that make the wait even longer). For the quickest installation, choose a prefab container home.
