"They did a wonderful job painting the entire interior of my home before I moved in. They kept me informed about their progress with photos. They also helped me out by letting a delivery person into the home for installation of appliances. They cleaned up after themselves and completed the job when promised after working me into the schedule."

"Excellent. Highly recommend Brett Lamley of all pro builders. Honest, reasonable prices, exquisite attention to detail and very punctual. He is also a a very neat contractor. Such jobs require removal of old before installing new. We all should expect our home to be messy during such renovations but Brett spent extra time to vacuum and clean every speck of dust or dirt that may have been tracked in during working hours. Ive had many homes remodeled in 3 different states and Mr lamley is by and the best contractor I ve ever had. He has a great eye for design and was able to understand my wishes and gave me exactly what I wanted for my unusual mountain home. I couldn't be happier with the finished product. . Highly recommend him."

"We were very pleased with the finished product. Combs roofing did a lot of extra work. The front porch was so deteriorated
it had to be completely re-framed and attached higher in the roof so that in the future water would drain off of it better.
Much of the roof overhang and (soffit/facia)  wood all had to be replaced. Vents were put in the soffits. They also recommended that the insulation be replaced while the roof was off. This was subcontracted with a discount they were able to obtain. The chimney which was in bad shape was re-flashed and properly sealed. Existing gutter were readjusted. The owner was kept fully informed of all needed changes and recommendations  and cost adjustments. There were no surprises and all cost adjustments were discussed in detail and changes approved by the owner if wanted. The final cost shown includes the insulation and re-framing of the porch plus  added purchases such as stain. They were able to work around  the wet weather encountered. Mr. Combs was very knowledgeable and professional in his work."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

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 custom home is one that you design from the ground up, allowing you to customize everything from the square footage to the interior layout to all of the materials used. A spec home is one that a builder has designed and gotten approvals for. Spec homes may give you some limited options for the layout and materials, but most of the build is pre-set. Custom homes cost more and take longer to build.

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. 

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.

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.
