Customers say: True professional

"Tip top is an excellent company. I did not know there were still firms out there that took customer service as seriously as they do. They went above and beyond what most would have done to help me make my dream a reality. Their work was outstanding . They finished in two days and left my driveway as neat as they found it. I would highly recommend this company."

"Kirk Hanes, owner of Homes By Hanes, built a house for myself and my husband. Kirk did an outstanding job for us and made the whole new-build process so easy. He communicated with us throughout the entire process. He listened to all of my suggestions and made every attempt to give me exactly what I wanted. He also addressed any concerns I had with immediate attention. He is a wonderful builder who pays attention to detail in the building process to assure everything is perfect. We were so happy with Kirk as a builder, we are actually wanting him to do an add-on room to our new-build home. Great experience with Homes By Hanes!!!"

"I hired DSH Construction Services to build a wall of custom cabinets in my office. Dustin was able to take my vision and bring it to life. He provided so much expertise around the type of wood we should use, the style elements to include and the overall design. I am so happy with how it turned out and will happily recommend Dustin and his team for future projects."

"We recently completed a full home remodel and couldn’t be happier with the results. The team painted both the exterior and interior of our home, installed beautiful new countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms, replaced our HVAC unit and water heater, updated the lighting throughout the house, and installed new vinyl plank flooring. From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and detail-oriented. The quality of workmanship was excellent, and every part of the project was completed with care and attention to detail. The new flooring and lighting completely transformed the look of our home, and the fresh paint inside and out made everything feel brand new. They stayed on schedule, communicated well throughout the process, and made sure we were happy with every step of the remodel. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, high quality home renovation work."

"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."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

Green homes are often more expensive to build, averaging around $200 per square foot compared to the $150 per square foot you’d spend to build a standard home. However, green homes can save you money on your utility bills by consuming less energy or creating energy using solar panels or wind turbines on-site. They’re more expensive to build, but they often end up costing less in the long run.

Building a house without blueprints is not advised. It will prevent you from obtaining necessary building permits and meeting building codes and is likely to result in shoddy construction and unsafe living conditions. Detailed blueprints ensure that a house is built to exact specifications and is constructed safely and structurally stable.

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. 

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.
