"Chellyanna Contractors were awesome. They kept us up to date every step of the way and the quality of the work was exceptional. All of our neighbors can't believe the garage was expanded as it looks so seamless and like it was original to the house. Any issues we had they made right and then some. They went above and beyond in every way. I would recommend them and use them again if the need arose."
"Joe does what he says he will do; he is very thorough, he manages his team with respect and praise. My carpet was awful, but Joe made no judgement; he just ripped it out, and replaced it and made our home brand new again. The job took 3 days and we were informed all throughout the time."
"If you are looking for a solid construction company sonart is the way to go for sure! All I could say was wow aside from the fact that my mouth was completely open for a solid five minutes LOL! The house was built around the 50s and hasnâ t been updated since the original build. To see our bathrooms brought more to a modern the lights was honestly heartwarming I know my mother would have appreciated this!Thank you again guys for your hard work!"
"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!!!"
"Tip Top Gen Construction replaced my driveway and did a beautiful job on the new one ! Mike took care of any concerns or needs and made things go so smoothly! Definitely recommend them for your concrete needs!"
"Highly recommend DSH Construction Services for any home project. I had a few different major renovation projects in my kitchen and bathroom to get done and they were able to provide top notch quality at a reasonable price. They were constantly keeping me in the loop on progress and were overall a pleasure to work with."
"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."

Type of foundation and framing you choose
Quality of the building materials
Footprint and layout of the house

Builder’s experience
Modular homes can go up or down in value depending on a few factors. In areas where real estate is appreciating, the value of modular homes is likely to increase, and vice versa. Additionally, the value of modular homes depends partially on the area. In cities where every other home is stick-built, modular homes might be considered a functional obsolescence, in which case they could be less desirable and go down in value. In either case, though, modular homes can still be a good investment, especially since they provide housing at a lower upfront cost.
The average cost to build a modular home is around $270,000, and most modular homes total between $180,000 and $360,000. Of course, this price varies significantly by location, and the price tends to follow the cost of living in the area. There are quite a few other factors at play that can affect your pricing, including the following:
Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
Site preparation, including land clearing and leveling
Type of foundation
Utility connections
Cost of building permits
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.
The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.
