"Be Water Tight" At Phelps Construction Inc. we have handled a wide variety of commercial and residential projects for clients. And, we couldn't have done it without our dedicated staff. Our employees have spent most of their lives working in the construction business and know the in's and out's of building requirements, especially in the suffolk area.

"Outstanding job, great customer service, great quality of work, great work ethic. It is so nice to have a contractor who does what they say they are going to do and shows up when they say they are going to show up. Phelps Construction removed and rebuilt my garage and they did an outstanding job. I highly recommend this company."

"Exterior Source: (The actual overall rating is 4.5 stars) Jason’s office called to set up an appointment. On the day of the appointment Jason came in to introduce himself and explain what he was going to do. He went outside to do his estimate. He came back in with wonderful drawings of my house complete with gutters and downspouts to differentiate the existing gutters from the new gutters. He then showed me the two types of leaf filtration systems, one that could keep pine needles, leaves, and debris out. and the other to keep out leaves and debris for all the areas where there are no pine trees. There were pine trees on the property behind the garage, so we went with leaf guard and the rest of the new and existing gutters micro guard. After a period of negotiations, we came to an agreement. I was in the hospital at the time, so I was not there to view the installation. My wife informed me that Executive Source was on the job. When they left the job was done exactly as shown and explained to me. Except for a miscommunication between estimator and office, and estimator and me, everything else went smooth. My wife took pictures and videos and showed them to me in the hospital and the job was complete on time and on schedule. They cleaned up well behind themselves as there was no debris left on site when they left. I would recommend them to others since their scope schedule, execution and revisited cost and that wonderful presentation made them the lowest responsive bidder. We hire them again to do the front of the garage in the near future."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

How long it takes to build a log cabin depends on a variety of factors, including its size and design, and whether or not you have to clear the land. Construction can take a few weeks for a prefab log cabin on an established site, but up to eight or nine months for a custom cabin on undeveloped land. In comparison, the timeline to build a house is typically four to 12 months.

Building a new home can be more expensive than buying an existing one, depending on the housing market in your area. Many homeowners still find that building a new house is worth the investment as they can choose the exact layout they want, as well as to choose their own floors, wall coverings, appliances, and finishes. If you live close enough to the build site, you can also stop by to check on the builder’s progress, which can provide some peace of mind that the project is worth it.

Contractors may require a down payment before they begin a project—especially for those that require a lot of materials. Check with your contractor to see how much they require up front before signing a contract, but they should not ask for more than 50%. Never pay in full before work begins.

Ranch and colonial-style homes are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average.

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.
