Mueller Builders specializes in roofing, windows, siding & contracting services for residential & commercial clients located in Central Virginia VA, & the Outer Banks, NC

"The service I received from the Mueller Builders’ Team was immeasurable. Over the weekend with high winds, I had some shingles come off my roof. I called and spoke with Mark Mueller whom I shared my circumstance with, his response, “let me get someone over their shortly to get ahead of the rain.” Before I knew it, his office called and the crew was on the way, fixed and all before the rain hit. I was thinking maybe in a few days, not with Mueller Builders - same day service, impeccable work, and a customer friendly crew! Thanks so much to the team!"

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can finance cottage construction through several options. Construction loans provide funds in stages as work progresses, while home equity loans or lines of credit are available if you have existing property. Some lenders offer a combined construction and permanent mortgage. Always review loan terms and payment milestones before committing.

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.

An ADU is a section of your home that you can feasibly use to house guests or even tenants. Pool houses can be ADUs if they include a kitchen, a bathroom, and a bedroom, but smaller pool houses and pool sheds are more for the homeowner to get more enjoyment out of their pool than for guests.

Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand. 

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.
