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."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

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.

Modular homes can go up or down in value depending on a few factors. In areas where real estate is appreciating, the value of modular homes is likely to increase, and vice versa. Additionally, the value of modular homes depends partially on the area. In cities where every other home is stick-built, modular homes might be considered a functional obsolescence, in which case they could be less desirable and go down in value. In either case, though, modular homes can still be a good investment, especially since they provide housing at a lower upfront cost.

The longest part of building a custom home is the design phase. It takes multiple professionals and a ton of work to bring your vision for your dream home to life while sticking to a homebuilding budget and also ensuring everything is built to code. Expect the design phase for a custom home build to take six months to a year.

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. 

No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.
