"As a first-time home-owner, Joe was gracious enough to help me through a lot of tough calls and decision-making in my large-scale projects. He puts a lot of thought and effort in giving options and opinions. Even better, he helped me navigate what needed to be done and when, even going so far to recommend trusted contractors in areas of plumbing and electrical work. Joe is essentially a one-man crew that at times got apprentice help through friends on some jobs. Overall, I'd pay for materials and time for his work, and I would give money up front for materials that he would go get himself. Joe was able to keep updated records of what he had done for me and the amounts I paid in a useful excel document that he'd print out for me every couple of weeks or so. For jobs that he could easily estimate, he'd give me a price up front, such as for my flooring installation. Bigger jobs like putting up new interior walls was paid as work was done. Overall, his work was excellent. Joe does good work for a fair price, but he takes a long time for big projects. I'm a bachelor, so I didn't mind too much, but I'm sure having a wife around would have made things awful. He's a guy I could trust with my garage key, and as he puts it himself, he's a chatty to a fault."

"The contracted the work off to a third party. Jon took longer than expected. The windows was installed pretty good from the looks. Communication could have been better with knowing the job will take longer and what types of trims I wanted for the windows. As the contractor that was hired for this job by this company. Did a good job with putting up decent trim. As for the new windows they look great. I purchased the myself and hired sentri homes to install them. I will need to have a my siding on my house redone to be closer to the new windows so the gaps are not so obvious. That was not expected at first. But from old storm windows and not knowing how they were put in originally. There was some unknown things that was learned from the job being completed. I will have the siding of the house slightly done to match really good for what I wanted later on. My only concern is better communication with sentri homes. Overall they were great when I did talk to them."

"I can't say enough good things about J&J Constructions! We purchased a playground from Walmart and accidentally overlooked the option for assembly. We were in a bind, but thankfully J&J Constructions came through for us. They spent an impressive 7 hours building the playground, and the quality of their work was truly top-notch. From start to finish, their attention to detail was impeccable. Every bolt, board, and piece was assembled with precision and care. What stood out even more was their professionalism and character. These men are not only incredibly skilled but also humble, kind, and hardworking. They took the time to ensure everything was done perfectly, and we are beyond pleased with the result. If you're looking for a team who delivers outstanding work with a great attitude, J&J Constructions is who you need to call. They turned what could have been a stressful situation into a seamless experience. Highly recommended!"

Home Building questions, answered by experts

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

Modular homes last an average of between 50 and 75 years, and high-quality modular homes can last for 100 years with proper maintenance. For comparison, a standard home lasts 50 to 100 years and can push to 150 or longer with good maintenance. Modular homes provide better long-term value in that they are significantly more affordable and can last almost as long, but some buyers are wary of modular home longevity, so the actual value if you sell could be lower.

A carriage house is a freestanding building, while a townhouse is connected to other units. A townhouse is a full single-family home and typically shares a parcel of land with other connected homes. A carriage house is rarely used as the sole single-family home on a property and is most often an additional building sharing property with a traditional single-family home. 

In most cases, you should get an architect before you hire a builder. An architect will be the one to draw up formal plans for your project, including guidelines and even material lists for your builder to follow during construction. Many architects can even help you find builders, choose one for your project, and negotiate prices. Some are also willing to act as project managers throughout the process, working closely with a builder from start to finish.

Yes, a home builder or contractor should have the proper licensing and insurance. Licensing requirements vary by state and municipality, but most states mandate that a builder holds at least a general contractor’s license. For specialized work such as plumbing, electrical, roofing, or sewage systems, individual licenses may be required, in which case the builder may subcontract the work. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to review your local guidelines and confirm a builder's credentials. As you browse professionals, you can also look for the “Angi Certified” badge. This indicates the business meets our certification standards, which include passing a criminal background check, holding applicable state and local licenses, and maintaining an average rating of 3.0 or better.
