Customers say: True professional

"Mike was great and seemed very knowledgeable. My house and property was significantly damaged by flooding and it is a big job. I didn't get a bid for the full scope of work from Mike and ultimately decided on a contractor that gave me a bid for everything and knew personally. I looked at pictures of Mike's cabinet work and was impressed. It was a tough decision and work has not yet begun because I'm waiting on insurance. Mike was very kind which I appreciated during such a stressful time."

"We spent a great deal of time and energy (four rounds of interviews) researching contractors to help us remodel the home we had just bought, and we chose Burlingame Contracting. Our project was significant because we not only wanted to completely remodel both of our bathrooms but we also needed demolition and structural work, removing and adding walls, windows, skylights, plumbing, electrical and roof work.   We had very specific design ideas and a detailed parts list (different kinds of floor and wall tiles, imported lighting, large soaking tub, fixtures, etc.) and a limited amount of space, so we really needed to find someone who was flexible enough in their skill-set to get things done how we wanted them and who could communicate extremely well as there were tons of small design decisions that needed to be made along the way. Paul really came through for us. Not only did he create what we had imagined, he reliably offered improvement ideas and structural suggestions as he was working on the project. There were things that there was no way for us to know about in advance and, without Paul's forward thinking, we might have ended up with something beautiful that didn't last. His work looks good and feels solid and we trust it.   Paul often told me that he was afraid he would "bug me" too much with questions and thoughts. As someone who has been through the remodel process in the past, this was music to my ears. And Paul was true to his word, contacting us whenever he had a question, texting us pictures, explaining options and issues, and consistently letting us know where he was at with regard to the project. We also very much appreciated his willingness to take time out of his weekend to meet with us weekly at the house to go over his progress and review details in person, as we were still living in the Seattle area.   In terms of the work quality, it is excellent! Every time I walk into one of the bathrooms, I feel as though I've entered a beautiful hotel, suited just to my tastes. The only downside is that Paul’s work is so nice it now makes us want to have him update the rest of the house as well!   Paul has good attention to detail and we appreciated his experience and workmanship. He has good subs and suppliers and manages them well. He is easy to work with, has a good sense of humor, and really ensured that he understood what we had in mind and did a fantastic job making it real."

"Jason managed a large remodel at our house, including new floors, cabinets, kitchen, bathrooms, tile, fireplace, and doors. We found Jason to be knowledgeable, honest, hard-working, and pleasant to deal with. With a large project like this we were bound to run into some unexpected problems, and Jason was always willing to do whatever it took to resolve these to our satisfaction. We are extremely pleased with the final outcome and would highly recommend Jason for any remodeling or constuction project.

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits. 

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

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.

The most significant expense when building a barndominium is constructing the metal shell, which includes the roof, doors, and windows. Additional exterior components impacting the overall cost include metal siding and the concrete foundation.
