After finding his contact information on Angie's List and checking out his website, I contacted Mr. Westbrook by email on a Sunday afternoon and got a call from him the same day.  We agreed that he would stop by my home to discuss a Master Suite addition the following Thursday evening, which was the first time I was available. 

I am a former custom home builder and had a good idea about what I wanted, but I was looking for someone who had both the design and building skills to complete the project to my demanding standards.  When Mr. Westbrook arrived precisely on time in the pouring rain, I quickly realized that he knew exactly what he was talking about and his personality was perfect for the job.  Within about 5 minutes, Mr. Westbrook became Wally and I felt as if I had known him for years.

Several times over the next few days, we exchanged sketches of the proposed project and I was extremely pleased with the results.  With just a builder's sketch of my existing floor plan, dimensions from an appraisal and a few photographs that Wally took during our initial meeting, he was quickly able to create a 3 dimensional plan and elevation of my existing home which he used to design the new addition.

The scope of work included a major expansion of the covered porch and Master Bedroom, adding an adjacent 15' X 15' sitting room and adding a new pool bath.  Within just a few days, Wally submitted the preliminary design which was exactly what I had envisioned.  His plan matched the current design perfectly, and complemented the existing roof plan very well--which proved his expertise in both design and construction.   

After integrating a few ideas that I had provided and making some revisions that he had suggested, Wally prepared the final plans and elevations for the HOA and permit review.  From the first visit to the final review, it was obvious to me that Wally had the necessary skill set and commitment to do the job well and to meet my specific expectations.   It is rare to find someone these days who is so committed to his work, but Wally exceeded even my expectations. Overall, it was a real pleasure to do business with him, and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone who is considering a major addition to their home.

"Willie and his team did fantastic work. After contacting numerous other "foundation experts", Willie provided the best plan and backed it up with his overall knowledge and certification/training in basement/foundation repair. He and his team do great work and take no short-cuts when it comes to the overall quality of the work. He also was very flexible when other requests were made and he gladly accommodated. He has a passion for his business, customers and takes great pride in his work. The basement and porch are now fixed and look great. Best of all is that we have confidence the work performed will last."

"Good and bad. At 1st work started out really good with the workers coming in 5 to 6 hours A-day for 3 to 4 days a week. James would come in once A-day to check on the progress. After a few weeks one of the workers was deported and at that time the Quality began to suffer. The work became sloppy and everything was taking a lot of time. Many items were not done correctly. The backsplash in the kitchen had to be ripped out and redone. They began coming less and less and we never knew what day they would be here or what time they would arrive. They were very sloppy and did not cover the furniture or carpet where they worked and walked inside the house. They left a lot of trash laying around the backyard And did not clean up behind themselves.After a few weeks we saw no one at all for 5 days. We were ghosted by James on Phone, text and email. They then told us that the workers had quit and they didn't have anyone to come in and do the work . They were going to come in and do it themselves. Quality improved, but Once again communication was poor regarding when they were coming. The agreement was the last installment would be paid at completion of the job but they informed us that they needed more money. After a heated discussion, we gave them 4,000 and Marlana took over. This is when EVERYTHING changed for the better. Marlena and her sister came in and did a lot of the inside work. They corrected the mistakes of the previous workers and did a great job installing the shower et cetera that also needed to be done. After a few days, Marlana brought in and supervised 2 guys that redid and completed the outside. They had the entire job finished in less than a week. The quality was high, they were very professional, and did a great job. We are EXCEPTIONALLY HAPPY with the work that was done during the last week. We paid them extra to remove the trash and when they finished it was done well. The original quote was supposed to include builder quality fixtures and materials and other supplies. We chose higher end so they amended the agreement and charged us is us 38000 for their work. Supplies for the outside were included in the quote. We ended up spending an additional 18000 on fixtures, shower doors, vanities, plumbing parts, toilets, tile, granite,and everything else."

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

Modular homes are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and faster to build than traditional homes. They also offer customizable designs.

Shipping container homes last at least 25 years on average, but they can last even longer with proper maintenance. Since shipping containers are made from metal, they’re quite vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This issue is exacerbated in coastal areas or areas with a lot of precipitation. To extend the life span of your container home, install siding that protects the exterior. 

Ultimately, a work warranty is only as reliable as the contractor you’ve hired. That’s why trust and reputation are such important factors, in addition to having a solid contract and confirming appropriate licensing, insurance, and bonding. When looking for a contractor, it’s a good idea to read online reviews and ratings to see what kind of experience past customers have had. Issues with your contractor can make for an unsatisfying renovation process, but a reliable contractor can make the process go as smoothly as possible.

Renovating or remodeling an existing structure is usually less expensive than the cost to build a new house. That’s because you can save on the costs of new building materials, laying a foundation, framing the entire building, and installing new materials and utilities throughout the house. However, if a home is in very poor condition or is incredibly old, you could spend more on upgrades and restoration compared to building from scratch.

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.
