"The old deck was damaged and needed urgent repair. The North West Builders and Renovation team visited and after a consultation we came up with an idea for a new deck. Job well done, we love the new deck."

"I have used this Roofing on two different family projects. One was the complete roof retiling of a standard size family home and the most recent project, was for the repair and laying of new roof sheets on the back sun room. Each time I found them to be helpful, co-operative and very professional. On our recent project, Pete was our first point of contact who made the whole experience stress free and quick. Ari and Elijah helped in choosing the materials, right down to the colour and then completing the job in only two days."

"A beam holding my carport was badly weathered and had cracks. It was also installed many years ago so that the gutter was spilling water on the driveway. The guys came in, replaced the beam and added more new gutter beyond the carport. Very easy to work with, friendly, and did an excellent job!"

"Juan built our custom home. He is extremely hard working and a knowledgeable builder. He was professional from start to finish. When we faced some structural challenges, Juan always had solutions that kept our vision on track. He went above and beyond to ensure we got what we wanted in our dream home. We couldn't be happier with our new home and would highly recommend Juan. He is truth worthy and a skilled worker."

"I contacted Carlson this morning requesting a repair to roof shingles. Reed Carlson indicated they were booked out several weeks but would see what could be done. He came personally to my house the same day and fixed the roof. He also noticed I had a loose drain pipe on my roof and repaired that as well. I would highly recommend this company."

"We hired Sami and his crew for a total kitchen renovation, new bathroom sinks and counter, new interior doors, a sliding glass door off bedroom, and other upgrades. They were professional, helpful with suggestions, and gave us a reasonable quote and timeline for the projects. We discussed everything, and we signed a contract. They stayed on budget. We had a few lag times, due to material availability etc, but they still finished everything pretty close to their timeline. They were easy to talk to, and responded to our texts and phone calls in a timely manner. Overall we are happy with the results, and would hire them again."

"Very positive. Honest, quality experience, good price. Flooded office: Removed plasterboard, insulation, vinyl plank flooring, gas furnace, toilet, sink & mirror, etc. Dried office, then put everything back together. Difficult 13 foot high ceilings required ladders. Excellent paint job. I've used Glassic for new windows and referred to friends and relatives for years. No complaints. Nice guy to work with."

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.

Most cottages are around 1,000 square feet, making them smaller than most other styles. However, cottages are defined more by their decor and architectural focus on simplicity, functionality, and a connection to nature than they are by a rigid square footage or floor plan. While cottages are defined more by their charm and appearance than size, the smaller footprint does help maximize the comfort and charm, and it keeps the focus on connection to nature and family.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

It is a good idea to check in with your local city and state regulations before committing to building a shipping container home no matter where you live. This concept is pretty new across the country, and many places won’t let you build one.

The International Code Council (ICC) offers guidelines for home builders on the safe use of ISO intermodal shipping containers repurposed as building components, which can be helpful to review when planning or designing a shipping container home.

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.
