"HL did a great job on my home remodel. Leymir took the time to go through all of the options and made suggestions about how to save cost and really improve the house. My newly refinished 1920 floors are beautiful and the kitchen tile is great as well. Both bathrooms have gorgeous new cabinets and sinks that really modernized the house! The work was done very quickly, and they did a great job of cleaning up when they left!"
Beautiful house with outdated wood floors. By installing new Engineered Wood Floors from BBW, baseboards from Unique Wood Materials, we gave it a new look and enhanced the beauty of this home. Making the clients fall in love with their home again
Changing the floor, using the new Vinyl INNOVA Collection (100% waterproof and scratch resistant) from Modern Home Concepts, new 5 1/4 "baseboards from UNIQUE WOOD PRODUCTS, and paint from Sherwin Williams, we managed to give a fresher and more modern look to this beautiful home.
HL Remodeling and Construction INC helps to build a more functional and useful closet for this Master Bedroom, helping these customers to be able to utilize better the existing space.
New cabinets from ASIA CABINETRY, new countertops from EARTHSTONE-COLOURS, beautiful pulls from HARDWARE RESOURCES, paint from SHERWIN WILLIAMS and the excellent work of the contractors who are part of the HL Remodeling and Construction team were the factors that made it possible to help these clients to give a new look to these bathrooms.

"I don’t usually leave reviews, but this company did an outstanding job on my home remodeling! I have had such terrible experiences in the past, so I didn’t know what to expect, but from the initial consultation to the final result, every person was extremely professional, knowledgeable and helpful. They were diligent in their work and went above and beyond to ensure the project was completed to the highest standards and very importantly, on time. No funny business at all. The end result is just amazing and We are thrilled with how everything turned out. I cannot recommend Persia Construction enough. Transparency is something that is very important for my wife and I and we were walked through every aspect of the project. If you are considering construction project, reach out to them."

"With both building and architectural experience, Wally Westbrook has an excellent understanding of what is needed to achieve the best, and very different, end results for personal homes and investment properties. (He has helped me with both.) I particularly like his ability to understand what a site warrants. For example, he advised that an investment property did not need the size addition I was contemplating to achieve the result I wanted. He looks for cost effective ways to add a "wow" factor to even the most basic house. As if those qualities are not enough to recommend Westbrook Design, Wally is also a pleasure to work with. I will definitely use his services again."

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.

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.

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.

Hiring a reliable home builder is an essential task, but there are a few questions you can ask a potential builder to ensure you they are trustworthy and up to the task:

  • How long do you expect the process to take?

  • Are you fully licensed and insured?

  • How much of the work will you subcontract?

  • Will you pull all of the necessary permits for the job?

  • How long is the builder’s warranty you include with your work?

  • How do you handle resolution for issues I might have with the finished product?

  • How much experience do you have?

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.
