Just by way of some detail: the entire North side of our building had to be rebuilt after discovering unsound block footers and walls after some demolition. This was rebuilt with precision and quality that we did NOT anticipate - it is like a bunker now! The trusses on the center aisle of the building were entirely replaced with new engineered trusses, and didn't even add that much cost to the project. The entire roof was replaced and standing seam metal roofing was installed. Everything but the center aisle of what was once a stable had to get new poured concrete floors. Two of the rooms were built out with insulation and drywall, and those rooms got a two-zone split heat pump system to maintain temperatures during winter and summer months. (It is super comfortable in there even with our sub-20 degree nights now). The whole building got all new doors and windows, including a custom-built barn door complete with flashing and locks to keep it secure. The whole building had to be re-wired, and was done neatly and thoroughly. (This part of the job was far more expensive than we initially anticipated, mostly because we did not get an updated bid for that part of the project, so if your job is large, make sure ALL aspects are bid in detail before work begins!) Included in this work was the installation of a sub-panel and meter that would support a new solar array (installed by another company: Solar Connexion in Blacksburg, VA, which I highly recommend); several new 220/240 outlets; a dozen or more regular GFI/non-GFI outlets; five ceiling fans; garage door openers; new lighting throughout; and fairly complex motion and daylight sensors hooked up to exterior lighting. In addition to the work on the building, I recruited Andrew to assist me with the installation of a new 2500 gallon concrete water collection and treatment cistern to serve the adjacent vegetable garden. He helped set the huge tank in the ground, paint the inside of it with waterproof membrane, plumb the entire system, and install a fairly complex water treatment series (made by Rainwater Management Systems in Virginia) in ground and inside a shed. Andrew did an amazing job on this, considering I sprung it on him at the last minute (kind of) and considering he had not done one with this kind of potable water setup previously. For reference, the tank was acquired from Hanover Precast in Virginia, and I consulted with a company in Ohio (Jonathan Meier of Rain Brothers LLC in Ohio - http://www.rainbrothers.com/) to ensure the inlets and outlets were done properly by Hanover. Andrew could have done a better job coordinating and communicating with these other companies, but considering he had no prior relationship with these companies, he remained flexible and reached out to them when he was asked to do so. My advice is if you're considering working with companies external to Greensward, speak with Andrew about it well in advance and ask that he form a relationship with the company before work begins. Overall, I think that the work done by Greensward was MUCH better than we could have anticipated, going above and beyond what was expected of them during this project, to ensure it came out the best that it possibly could have come out. We are SO happy to have a garage and workshop again (man cave from heaven-!), and would definitely recommend AND work with Andrew and the Greensward crew again. Great job Greensward!!! Thank you!!!

I have had nothing but problems with this house. I went with Khov due to a friend who recommended them, weighed the price of building myself and decided to use them based on location. I went through the normal pre-build design meetings which went well. Made my order and waited for the construction to begin. I was able to make a couple of visits during the framing portion and caught several problems with structural framing. *Note: I do home architectural designs and know IBC and IRC..(building code) I drove by and saw the framers framing the garage opening and saw the off-site wall did not reach the foundation anchor so he tacked on a 5' 2x4 and nailed it to the existing stud to get it to fit. This does not constitute load bearing and the construction manager had to fix it himself. Soffits were stuck in the rafters and not stapled properly, allowing insulation to plug it up. Construction Manager had to fix it. I can just imagine a homeowner who does not know proper building practices wouldn't have known to call them on it.
After completion of the home, within the first year, I have had to call in work orders on the following:
All three toilets in my home were not seated properly, leaking water into the sub-floor
Rainwater leaking through my exterior door to deck, they came 4 times to try to solve the problem and finally replaced the door as well as my flooring. The fact of the matter is that they did not caulk or seal the door, causing it to fill with rain water.
Severe cracking of drywall (way beyond normal settling) which has reappeared again after the 1 year warranty.
Shorting of garage power and exterior lighting (improper installation which caused it to be pinched in box).
Trim around my garage is separating and their fix was to add caulk....did not help.
One issue I can't make KHOV fix is the idiot who installed drywall to sketch his name in my garage. The fact that I mentioned that and wanted it removed or covered, they said they can't and I need to paint it over. This clarifies that KHOV has no real quality control.
The other is KHOV gave the keys to the home to sub-contractors to use as a bathroom on the day I was signing for the home. I had already did the last walkthrough and accepted the home. I was standing by my car and watched the guy go into the house with a roll of toilet paper. They had a port-a-potty two houses down where they were working. He signed for the key from KHOV agent for just that purpose and seems they didn't have a problem with that. I confronted them about that and they apologized and said they didn't know what he wanted the key for....why did you give it to him without asking why????
Now after the 1 year warranty has passed, I am encountering drywall tape peeling off in guest bathroom. Shower has been used only 2-3 times.
Nail heads are appearing in the drywall. I stated very clearly in the contract that drywall screws are to be used specifically.
I have begun finishing my basement and found the following:
Hidden in insulation, several foundation anchors that anchor the walls to the foundation were not used and bent out of sight.
Air gaps where the spray foam was not sprayed correctly.
I understand these are mass produced homes but KHOV cuts so many corners with unskilled labor, builder grade materials and no quality control that I beg you not to use KHOV. This is a company that will do whatever it takes to build the profit margin and build a sub-standard home. I am not supposed to mention the neighbors and their problems and all I will say is that I am not alone. If you go with KHOV, you will regret it. You are welcome to contact me for more information if you are considering their company as your builder.

FAQs for treehouse building projects in Jeffersonton, VA
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
Knowing if you need an architect for your project can be tricky, especially if you've never worked with one before. In general, small remodeling projects like replacing fixtures typically don't require the expertise of an architect. However, larger projects, like moving walls or adding an addition to your home, should include an architect to ensure the project is structurally sound.
The cost to build a detached garage for two cars costs about $26,400 on average. Prices range from $19,200 to $33,600, depending on your location, the garage size, height, materials, and site prep required. Additional cost factors include any plumbing, electrical wiring, and insulation. If you need to build a concrete foundation for a new detached garage, you can expect to pay $1,000 to $8,600 for this essential addition.
