"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."

"Clic Homes replaced our 37 year old aluminum siding with a beautiful siding called “smart siding “. Their crews were hard working, kind, and always on time. We could not be more pleased and satisfied with the quality and professionalism that Clic Homes provided. With no hesitation, we would hire them again, and highly recommend them to anyone else."
"The work exceeded my expectations for completeness, aesthetic appeal, and promptness. The owner updated the electrical with a subpanel and new 3-wire circuits. Tom and his project manager, Jordan, offered many suggestions that made the finished product superior to our vision and more complete. The work will enhance our home for years to come. The subs who provided the framing, sheetrock, and mudding were friendly and excellent; they even could be called perfectionists. I must note that the owner has a full-time job and this is a side business. This fact actually worked to our advantage. Tom and Jordan would work evenings and weekends to complete our job. Their schedule was perfect for us because we did not have to take time off work. The owner operates a fair and ethical business. I recommend him without reservation and will definitely use this business again."
"Clean up wasn't perfect and we had to call to see when he was coming back to finish (after installing drywall). But the work is quality and he finished it nicely. We changed our minds a couple of times and he worked with us and discussed options. We are very happy with the work. "
"Kent Nickell Construction are amazing to work with! As a single mom, I was overwhelmed with finding a builder I felt I could trust and that wouldn’t charge extra on things. They were very clear with cost and gave me a cost guide and budget that was easy to follow with the sub-contractors they were working with. Any time I had a question they took the time to explain things out so that I could understand. They took me aside and encouraged me to do plans for a future basement so that when I finished it I would have the plans all figured out, and then priced out the home with and without the basement so I could make a decision from the get go. I didn’t think I would be able to do a basement rental right away, but with them taking the time going over the pros and cons, it was an easy decision to put a rental in right away to help me with mortgage costs and didn’t cost me a ton more. I built in 2023, one of Utahs wettest years we had in a while, and they went above and beyond with making sure that my basement would be protected. All the while keeping me informed. They knew my needs would be different than a double income family and I felt like they made sure any choices I made would benefit me in the long run and not break my budget. Honestly working with them I felt like I was working with family. They cared about things like if I would have had my dad or brothers build a home for me. You can tell they build each home as if it were their own. I appreciated the time and care they took to give me a beautiful custom home that I could afford and not like one of these quick up, cut corners, type of work that I was afraid I would end up with not having a construction background myself. I am truly grateful I found them as a builder and would recommend them to anyone. Thank you!"
"Jake Toombs, President of Millcreek Homes is the singularly most impressive professional that I have worked with in forty years. Jake built our custom home on time and on budget. Jake is an impeccable communicator. Jake was very patient with my wife and I as we made innumerable decisions through the build process of our first new home. Jake was 100% transparent on pricing, timing, viability of options requests, etc. Jake referred us to a fabulous architect and we also worked with similarly-qualified support people in choosing every last detail of; cabinets, appliances, floor surfaces, paint choices, windows, hardware, etc., etc.. We received an extremely high-quality custom home that was at least 25-30% less than comparable builders. Moreover, almost three years after our home was completed (July 2021), Jake continues to be available to me for any questions that I have. I STRONGLY recommend Jake Toombs and Millcreek Homes to anyone who wants to have a uniquely positive experience building a new home."

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.
On average, the cost of a home builder is about $150 per square foot, but that price can range from around $100 to $400 per square foot or more. That puts the typical price range of a standard, 2,000-square-foot house between $200,000 and $800,000. Some factors that affect the price of hiring a home builder include the following:
Location of your home and the living cost in the area
Type of foundation and framing you choose
Quality of the building materials
Footprint and layout of the house
Number of stories
Builder’s experience
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.
A construction-to-permanent loan is the most common type of mortgage used to finance a house teardown and rebuild. These loans include financing for construction costs and convert to a long-term mortgage once construction is complete. Check the terms of the loan closely before beginning work—there are often restrictions requiring you to use licensed contractors for all work.
It usually takes around four to six months to build and install a modular home, although your timeline could go up to around eight months if there are delays in the manufacturing or permitting process. Heavy site preparation and foundation pouring can extend that timeline if you need them, as can customizations you want for your modular home. Your modular home company should be able to provide an estimate for the construction timeline before you sign any contracts or agree to any work.
