Customers say: Quality work

""We couldn't be happier with the work performed. Our attic steps had become disconnected, and the technician went above and beyond. They not only expertly reconnected the spring but also conducted a thorough inspection, tightening and adjusting all the screws. Their attention to detail was impressive, and the steps are now perfectly secure.""

"They were on time did the work in a shorter time than originally stated. The only issue I have is one tile is a bit higher than the rest. There were not hidden costs and my floor is now installed."

"My rental property was left in terrible condition. Freelance United took full control of the situation and brought my rental home back to life. Sam from Freelancd United was very thorough from beginning to end which made the process easy. Pricing was good; I knew I made the right decision when they worked around my price range. The house has now gone up in value thanks to Sam and the Freelance United team. I will definitely be using them for all of my rental properties and home. The entire home was painted, cabinets painted, & installed new kitchen counter tops."

Storm Shelters questions, answered by experts

Any straightforward rectangular home layout is more uncomplicated than custom rooms, additions, or stylistic features. In stock plans, single-story ranch homes, cape cods, and colonials are common. Layouts with a single roof ridge are easier to build than those with multiple dormers, chimneys, or ridges.

Common pitfalls include underestimating the cost of site preparation, overlooking permit and utility fees, and not setting aside funds for unexpected changes. Change orders during construction can disrupt your budget. It’s best to plan a detailed budget, obtain multiple quotes, and include a 10% to 15% contingency fund for unexpected expenses.

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.

Whether pole barn posts should be set in concrete depends on the soil surrounding your home. If your soil is compact and digging conditions are agreeable, then setting pole barn posts in concrete is an ideal option.

Ranch and colonial-style homes are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average.
