"Manuel brought his skidsteer and broke up the patchwork of a patio we had when we moved into this house. It was an awful eyesore and uneven, but Manuel broke it all up and hauled off the debris. He then brought in fill dirt, sod and fertilizer and we are so happy to have a yard now!"

"I was needing to sell a property that I had been renting for the last 7 years and needed it rehabilitated before I could place it on the market. I live out of state and needed someone that could manage the project for me and keep me informed with all the details. Started calling contractors and came across M&M Upgrades. Spoke to Marcel, who I believe is the owner, and I was immediately put at ease with his approach, attention to detail and patience with my endless questions. Not once did I feel any evasiveness on his part as I had with other contractors, just straight forward , clear and honest. He was able to handle all the work that needed to me done, truly a one stop solution. He called all the subcontractors, got me pricing, scheduled everything and followed up with me every step of the way. This guy went above and beyond to keep me in the loop, which is a tall task as I wanted to know every detail. He walked me around the house via iPhone Face-Time and showed me the work as it progressed. As for the work itself...it came out beautiful and flawless. The interior paint was pristine, including all trim and base boards. He even re painted the AC/Heating vents. He was able to remove an entire room that was built the third bay garage by the prior tenant. You would never know that room was there when he was completed. Furthermore, I was on a tight time table as I needed to get this place on the market. He started the project the immediately and was finished ahead of schedule. I also have to say he did a bunch of extra things for me without charging me above his original quote. Marcels fees were also reasonable, especially when you consider the level of experience, quality and professionalism you get. At no point did I feel the project was out of hand or beyond his scope. This provided me a degree of confidence and most importantly ease of mind. Can't say enough positive things about M&M and more specifically Marcel. He really earned my business from the start and delivered on his promises. You can tell this guy really cares about his company and relies on the reputation of his work and level of service. With zero hesitation, this is the man I'd hire for any future jobs. BTW, my home was on the Market for 3 days before getting my asking price and I'm scheduled to close by the end of next month. This would not have been possible with out the excellent quality of work performed by M&M. Thank You Marcel!"

"We're very pleased with the end product and the service provided by H&M Build Group. Maria was extremely responsive to our needs and questions. She would email or message us back at late hours of the night, send picture updates while we were out of town, etc. She communicated with us throughout the project so we were constantly informed. 
We had a lot of work done, and much of it was added to the scope of the project once it had begun (per our choice). Even with the amount of work, the entire project only took around 3 weeks. We were able to stay in our home, and I was able to continue working in my home office, with minimal interruptions. We'd definitely use Maria and H&M Build Group Again.

"I initially contacted Buckie’s for an estimate on replacing the flooring in a flip property. When Daniel arrived, he could see that a much bigger project was going to get underway. He let me know of all of the services that Buckies could provide. In the end, he won the business for a new roof, floor, interior and exterior paint, 2 bath remodels, electrical and plumbing updates. I couldn’t be happier with the work they performed, and will use them again!"

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

While it’s never too early to start planning for a major home improvement project like a home addition, give yourself at least a month or two to plan and design your addition, find a contractor, and get the permits in order. For larger projects like a second-story addition that require designing with an architect, plan on three to four months of preparation.

The average build timeline for a home is between six and 12 months, with timelines pushing toward the upper end of that range if you’re creating a custom design or need a lot of land preparation before getting started. Hiring a general contractor or a custom homebuilder will help speed up the process, as you’ll see fewer delays between different parts of the build process getting done.

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?

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.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.
