"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

There are energy-efficient options when building a cottage. Select green building materials, high-performance insulation, and energy-efficient windows when designing your cottage. Options such as solar panels, efficient HVAC systems, and LED lighting can lower your utility bills and reduce your environmental impact. Many builders offer energy-efficient upgrades as part of the design process.

Modular homes can be a great investment, especially for those who find the prices of stick-built real estate too high. Modular homes are usually much more affordable because they’re mass-manufactured and then assembled on-site or delivered mostly assembled. If they’re installed properly and by professionals, they can last for between 50 and 100 years, potentially making them an outstanding investment.

Yes, a home builder or contractor should have the proper licensing and insurance. Licensing requirements vary by state and municipality, but most states mandate that a builder holds at least a general contractor’s license. For specialized work such as plumbing, electrical, roofing, or sewage systems, individual licenses may be required, in which case the builder may subcontract the work. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to review your local guidelines and confirm a builder's credentials. As you browse professionals, you can also look for the “Angi Certified” badge. This indicates the business meets our certification standards, which include passing a criminal background check, holding applicable state and local licenses, and maintaining an average rating of 3.0 or better.

Local regulations dictate how big an ADU can be, and there may also be restrictions on the percentage of the main residence’s square footage an ADU can have. In most cases, an ADU must be smaller than the main residence, but check with your local building authority to confirm restrictions on ADU size.

If you want to make your home eco-friendly, enjoy low maintenance, and love the fact that its looks will take people’s breath away (and not because they were trying to blow your house down), then a modern brick home is right for you. You can hire a mason to get the building process started for your brick home.

But if you’re not fond of the color and don’t want to deal with the process of repointing or other repairs, consider going with vinyl or wood. These materials offer a lower cost. While they tend to require more maintenance, they don’t cost nearly the same as exterior brick house repair.
