"The owner and helper were very professional. They worked with us on payments, and completed the job earlier than expected. They were very professional and take pride in what they do. We are already working on getting pricing to remodel the rest of the house! I would highly recommend using KDK in the future!! "
"We were to Flood Crew from our property management company, and found their reviews on Angie’s List. The crew arrived on time, did a great job, and our carpet’s look like new."
"The floors looked better then when I purchased the house. Was really happy with the results and having them come back for more work and even want them to work for other people I know. Definitely recommend them if you need work done right the first time."
"The job went great! Livengood Electric really shined when it came to getting this job done. He went out of his way to make sure we had a beautiful new electrical service that will last for years to come. And also we will be ready next time the power goes out! Thanks again Jake, you did a great job!"
"It was a challenge looking for someone to build a deck without charging us a fortune. After reading reviews, I contacted Arundel WW and got their prompt response. Keith came over later the same day and discussed the project in detail, we settled on a price and signed a contract the very next day. Keith and his team are thorough professionals and finished the job. We had a great experience working with Keith and Ann. Our project got started and finished on time. Due to his quality of work and professionalism I have referred him to my family and friends as well. I will definitely hire him again for future projects. "
"Carlos and his team were amazing! They installed a new Ikea kitchen and they did not cut and corners. They were professional, efficient and did quality work. Very happy with their service and happier with how my new kitchen turned out. Highly recommend!"
"Highly Recommend - Excellent Builder! Oldaker services did an outstanding job building our home! From start to finish, they were professional, detail-oriented, and committed to quality. The craftsmanship is exceptional, and they kept us informed throughout the process. The project was completed on time and within budget. Wayne is a reliable and skilled builder!"
Ultimately, a work warranty is only as reliable as the contractor you’ve hired. That’s why trust and reputation are such important factors, in addition to having a solid contract and confirming appropriate licensing, insurance, and bonding. When looking for a contractor, it’s a good idea to read online reviews and ratings to see what kind of experience past customers have had. Issues with your contractor can make for an unsatisfying renovation process, but a reliable contractor can make the process go as smoothly as possible.
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.
In most states, you can build an in-law suite on your property as long as you follow local building codes. However, it's important that you have enough space on your property to accommodate the new structure. A functional in-law suite in your backyard will require between 300 and 800 square feet of space.
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.
