"Maria did a walkthrough of our home and helped us discover mold in our walls immediately after the hurricane. She promptly brought in someone to rip out the impacted walls. She brought in the teams needed to replace our floors as well. The process was very quick and the end result was very good. We get compliments all the time on how great our house now looks. She also helped us landscape our yard and brought in someone to install a new pergola and sitting area. I highly recommend Maria and her team if your are looking for someone to do high quality and professional work on your home.

"Me and my Husband decided to renovate our old house. We manged to take a loan from the bank and to find a contractor. We have received a couple of estimates from 3 different contractors. The estimated price was very high approximately the same as building of new house. We decided to move forward and rebuild our old one family house in a new 2-story house. We took this company and we really very happy with our new results. Now our house is very reliable, strong and beautiful. The total project cost us around $260k but now we have a brand new house. Our investment was right and I would like to work with Houston Renovation in the future too.
Sincerely, Helen.

"I went very well , but it took two days and they are hard to get a hold of for communications to schedule/follow-up
They sanded and restained perfectly.
They resealed with minwax gloss
 
The door wouldn't close right. I asked them and they looked at the hinges. I told the worker Ismahel and he would let the owner Danny know. Danny never contacted me back. The door latch hardware was installed upside down and backwards. I ended up having to take the hardware off and reinstall myself. The slanted part of the latch was facing away from the door jam.
Summary:
(1) They are somewhat difficult to contact to schedule work.
(2) The price is a little high.
(3) The work quality is very good.

"After reviewing Angie’s list, I was able to identify two (2) general contractors in my area. The first provided a general hourly quote over the phone and scheduled an appointment to provide me the number of hours required to complete the work. The second general contractor was Gulf Coast Master Craftsmen. Michael Mortensen (owner and master craftsman) contacted me regarding my request for a quote and scheduled a meeting based upon my schedule which was approximately 6:30 pm to accommodate my work schedule. When I arrived home, Michael was waiting for me and we proceeded to discuss the work that was needed in addition to discussing additional work that I wanted completed. Michael recommend coming back the following day with equipment to better inspect the entire house trim to identify rotted areas in order to provide an accurate quote. A detailed quote was provided by the end of the day with pictures of damaged/rotted trim. Once approval was provided, Michael started the project within a few days. Michael notified me when he arrived at my property to start work in addition to sending me pictures at the end of the day of work performed. The project was completed in 2 days and I was once again asked to meet Michael to conduct a walk-through of work that was completed to ensure my satisfaction. The house looks much brighter (amazing what new trim and paint can do!) and although I did not anticipate having to replace house/chimney trim – Michael was able to respond and complete the work quickly to avoid disruption. I am extremely detailed and expect high level of service from anyone I hire. The work performed was seamless - the work blended well and does not look patchy which was a concern seeing as how sections were replaced. Michael addressed some observations I made related to paint splatters and even though some were from the previous owners Michael went above and beyond and cleaned up the brick. Michael clearly takes pride in his work and we will be using Michael in the near future for additional projects!"

"I had Gamez Construction install 65 linear feet Cedar wood fence in my back yard. I solicited bids from several companies and Gamez quoted me the best price. His crew arrived on time . They dismantled old fence and removed all of the debris. Gamez used quality materials and installed the fence with excellent craftsmanship. The fence looks great!"

Custom Home Builders FAQs, answered by experts

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.

A contractor can install your shipping container home in as little as 90 days. This is notably quick compared to a traditional home build, which can take more than a year (providing there aren’t permitting or construction delays that make the wait even longer). For the quickest installation, choose a prefab container home.

One of the best ways to negotiate with a homebuilder is to forgo price reductions. Instead, negotiate over upgrades and incentives, as many builders are more willing to go down that road than to decrease their own fee. Even if they were willing to take a cut, a reputable homebuilder often knows their worth, so a willingness to negotiate could be a red flag. Beyond that, builders are typically willing to negotiate closing costs instead of offering a discount on the base price.

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.

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.
