"It was great. The person who came out to check our house was incredibly courteous and gave us a lot of great information. They sprayed the inside and outside of the house on the first and second visit and then just the outside since. We have really noticed a drop in the number of bugs around. With the annual plan they come spray once every 3 months, but if you notice bugs or anything 2 weeks after they have sprayed they will come spray again for no extra charge. It's really a great service. The cost was $75 every 3 months and is totally worth it."

Colby Phillips Construction is a family owned and operated local business with over 12 years of industry experience in construction. I opened Colby Phillips Construction in 2009 because I truly love helping people and enjoy building things/restoring things into something beautiful. I started Colby Phillips Construction because I knew I could do things more ethically, honestly, of highest quality, and with more of a personal touch than what I have experienced out there. We are honest in our pricing and our estimates for the work requested. I enjoy making connections and many of my jobs turn into long lasting friendships. I enjoy giving people a good quality job for a fair price. I can also help work with and negotiate with the insurance companies to justify the approval of claims. I do not like anyone being taken advantage of, and I will stand up for injustice and help in every way possible. I differ from my competitors because I truly listen to you as the customer. I will give you options to reach your desired goal. I am very good at exploring options, giving the pros and cons of each choice, while keeping your idea and the desire of you, my customer, as my number one priority. I pledge to you my professionalism, integrity, and good customer service when you choose to partner and engage with Colby Phillips Construction for your home improvement needs.

Reliable Building Services is a General Construction firm located in Greeneville Tennessee. Since 1990 Reliable Building Services has been building providing construction services from South Florida to East TN . Our experiences staff includes licensed General contractors, roofers, electricians, and heating and air technicians.

"We began the building process of our new home in December of 2015 and move in in July 2016. I decided to not post negative reviews at the time because I had been so distraught during the process I just wanted to forget about the whole process and move on but today is the day to leave the review. The entire home building process was a nightmare from the beginning to end. The first issue was with basement door framed out to the wrong size, installed and charged for retaining walls without any communication to us after we specifically stated we did not want retaining walls. We had several windows and doors not centered properly. They installed the wrong tile in guest bathroom. And these were just a few of the issues we had during the build. I guess the one main issue was with the owner of the company and the way we were treated. We were told to not go to the home everyday and look for mistakes and any mistakes would be taken care at the end of the process. He locked us out of our own home and would not let us in to see what was going on until he received his final payment. He wanted the final payment before the house was completed. It was an issue everyday of something being done wrong or him treating us terrible. We did not have one change order in the home but he kept telling us that he had $30,000 of his own money in this home. Now I am posting this today, 6 years later because we decided to have the metal replaced on all our door frames due to the metal work being so bad. After removing the metal wrapping we found all the garage doors and man doors to be rotting and all the door frames are going to have to be replaced after only 6 years. Please beware!!!!!"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

It is almost always more affordable to buy an existing home than to build one from scratch. First of all, new construction mortgage interest rates are often higher than traditional loans. Also, when building a home, you're covering the cost of brand-new finishes, appliances, electrics, plumbing, utility hookups, and labor. Between the cost of labor and permits, building a home will often cost more in the long run.

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.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

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. 

If you want to make your home eco-friendly, enjoy low maintenance, and love the fact that its looks will take people’s breath away (and not because they were trying to blow your house down), then a modern brick home is right for you. You can hire a mason to get the building process started for your brick home.

But if you’re not fond of the color and don’t want to deal with the process of repointing or other repairs, consider going with vinyl or wood. These materials offer a lower cost. While they tend to require more maintenance, they don’t cost nearly the same as exterior brick house repair.
