"Andrew came and installed doors and windows and then fine tuned the mistakes the previous installers made. We didn't know the door could work so smoothly until he fixed it for us. We will certainly call him again for any home improvement needs we have. He was very professional and knowledgeable!"

"

I had tile flooring installed last year in my kitchen and noticed how the grout was cracking throughout the kitchen. I called South Gate Home Improvements for an estimate to replace the tile. With a very reasonable estimate I had them to install the new tile.

Prior to him installing my new tile he showed me how the previous contractor did not screw down the backer board but used roofing nails instead which was the reason for my grout cracking. He spent the time correcting the deficiency and installed the new tile. The design I chose called for some precise cuts with the tile. Mr. Perabeau took his time and now I have beautiful solid tile flooring. I highly recommend him for all your remodeling needs."

"I went to Angie's list. Three were listed. I called Home Repair Company and spoke to the owner George Bonagura first. He came to our kitchen table,asked what we wanted and my wife,Rose, told him. He gave us ,what seemed to be a fair estimate and explained that his company would be glad to do the work if we wanted them to. No pressure from him at all. Even though we did not have any food at the table, I felt that I was at the "Olive Garden", where everybody is "family". I had met an honest businessman and I was not letting that company get away.I told Rose,that I wanted to hire him right away. If he was good enough for Angie's List, he was good enough for us. It was the best choice i could make.If you use this company,ask to get Jeff.I can not say enough about this guy .What a hard worker and even tempered individual he is.He was very attentive to us and very polite. He sure knows his job.He is a credit to the company.The job went very smooth. It took a little extra time because of our special needs but everybody was so great ,professional and understanding."

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"American building did a superb job on building my home!! I had fired 2 previous contractors (cost me some money) had been living in my little 5th wheel trailer look’n at a foundation I had poured 2 years prior think’n I’d never find a builder to finish my home. By the Grace of God was this lady named Shelley from American Building! I gave her the plans I had, we had to modify slightly. A real pleasure to work with her & the sub contractors she provided were top-notch! I have no reservations on recommending American Building, LLC! Easy to work with & you better be dog gone ready to build; from color choices, to textures & fixtures, carpet or laminate or both & where! How do want your closet too!! I could go on & on & I’m more than willing to chat with anyone who is wanting to build a home, or other dream!!"

Home Building questions, answered by experts

No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.

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.

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 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.
