"I had a garage side door that was literally falling apart. The door didn't line up with the latch so it wouldn't close without a Herculean effort to lift it up. The casing around it would constantly fall off, bringing with it a cable for the backup battery for my Verizon FIOS network. The wood at the base was rotted, and the concrete was crumbling. I had lost the key to the deadbolt which I needed even to lock it from the inside. I never used it because it was such a pain. But when I had a major landscaping project done, I couldn't get my lawnmower through my fence gate and needed to use my garage side door. I decided to bite the bullet and hire somebody. I called All American Craftsmen and Contracting based on the reviews on Home Advisor. They responded right away, offering to come out and give me a free estimate. They gave me an appointment that met my schedule and evaluated every aspect of the job that needed to be done. I wanted a new door and casing and was expecting an estimate north of $1000.00. To my surprise, they gave me an estimate with a quality door, casing and all carpentry work including concrete base for less than that amount. I was super pleased. I was supposed to have the work done a week later, but the coronavirus restrictions pushed that back a few weeks. When the day arrived, their employee (Tommy) showed up right on time and got to work. I estimated he spent at least 12 hours over two days painstakingly working on my project. He made two different trips to Home Depot to get the right material. The only hiccup was that the replacing the rotted base was not in the original contract and added $75. I really didn't care -- the price was still below my threshold. He installed it, caulked it and painted it. I was extremely happy with the results! I cannot recommend this company enough. Bravo Zulu!"

"We met Doug at a neighbor's house. He met with us and we discussed what we wanted done- a complete bathroom remodel. He offered suggestions while being open to our ideas. Work was done in a timely fashion. His crew was careful when moving vanity, shower pieces and other items. They cleaned up at the end of each day. We have been very pleased with the end product."

"Geoff and his network of highly skilled, certified specialists were amazing to work with. Geoff is not just a contractor, he is a designer with a vision who helped us make the right decisions for our home, while keeping with our own style. If he were an HGTV personality, it would be Holmes. He makes sure everything is done correctly the first time, with high-quality materials that will last forever, and my favorite part, he explained the how and why throughout the process. He is knowledgeable, honest, timely and just so good at what he does. His work is clearly a passion, and it shows in every detail. With only a copper sink as inspiration, he changed my 1990's kitchen into a timeless work of art that is as beautiful and interesting as it is functional. He reconfigured a large piece of my house to accommodate a laundry room and and turned a half bath with minimal space into a modern full bath, without making it feel small. I can't say enough great things about working with him. And, while it may not matter to some, it mattered to me - Geoff is a nice, personable guy who I liked having in my home, as was every specialist he chooses to work with. He was respectful of our space, and cleaned up the work space at the end of every day. He was open to adding to his already significant workload with projects that popped up as we were moving in and figuring out how we wanted the house to look. It got to the point that I ran every idea by him and he never once made me feel like I was a bother because he cared and had a vision. About halfway through the initial kitchen/bath/laundry project, we decided to redo the all brick fireplace hearth. Geoff knew exactly what would look perfect, and was able to give us a stone fireplace, with granite mantle without significantly pushing back the timeline. It looks perfect, and he even took into account my dog when choosing the threshold material around the base (because the dog's nails would scratch up a wood piece). Just little things like that, the caring, the attention to detail, the situational awareness that Geoff has makes him the correct choice. He also identified other issues in my home (older home) that could eventually cause issues and offered solutions. Not trying to sell us anything, but just helping us be better home owners and letting us know what to look out for. I am so glad our paths crossed, I can't imagine working with anyone else, and I am so excited work with him on the next project.!"

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

While it’s never too early to start planning for a major home improvement project like a home addition, give yourself at least a month or two to plan and design your addition, find a contractor, and get the permits in order. For larger projects like a second-story addition that require designing with an architect, plan on three to four months of preparation.

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.

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.

Framing is often the most expensive phase of building a house because it’s time-consuming and requires a lot of materials. It costs between $20,000 and $50,000 on average, depending on materials and labor costs. Before construction begins, it’s possible that purchasing land is the priciest step in the process. Some plots of land sell for $3,000, while others cost upwards of $150,000.

Modular homes are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and faster to build than traditional homes. They also offer customizable designs.
