"I hired JDC Contracting for a full kitchen remodel, along with small updates throughout my house (new lighting, replacement of interior doors, a new ceiling in the basement, bathroom updates, and numerous other things). John did nearly all of the work himself. He did a wonderful job and our house looks fabulous! I can't say enough about JDC. John is skillful, completely accountable, and fair and honest in pricing. Hiring JDC is a a collaborative project from start to finish. He took the time to hear our ideas, provide sound, practical input, and put together a good, workable plan. After discussing things (every step along the way), John turned what we wanted into reality. He's also kind and a pleasure to work with. I really enjoy interacting with him. I had received estimates from two other kitchen contractors. John was the third contractor that provided one. He really impressed me with his attention to detail, his knowledge, his demeanor, and his being up front about process, pricing, and so on. He left a great impression, so I hired him in late November. John transformed the small, enclosed kitchen into an open concept kitchen that's bright, spacious, and inviting. This was the first time that my wife and I were involved in a major remodel. In December, we were so happy with how the kitchen project was going that we asked John to do additional work on the house. We wanted to squeeze in some more work at our house before he got too busy with other customers' projects. The additional work included the door replacements, as well as partial updates of the bathrooms and basement. He is an HVAC expert, so he also gave great advice on how to maintain and extend the life of our older HVAC system and other mechanicals. His advice is saving us a lot of money. John does such terrific, fairly priced work, we would totally have gone with JDC for full updates of the bathrooms and basement, but we didn't have the finances. So we decided to go forward with partial updates that really changed the 2 bathrooms and basement, while allowing us to stay within our budget. We're grateful to John for these secondary projects--and his ideas for them--because they have given us a lot more living space, and have made the bathrooms much more pleasant to use. We recently purchased the home in Oct. 2022 and we initially had a 3-5 year timeline for improving the kitchen, bathrooms, and basements. But John shortened this timeline down to a 2-month time frame (around 35 days of actual work--there were a couple of delays on materials that slowed us down). We moved in a week ago and are loving it! In sum, I strongly recommend JDC for home improvement projects. John is highly skilled and has integrity and tons of expertise and experience. Most important, he genuinely enjoys making his customers happy by improving their homes. He went the extra mile for us and has definitely made my family and me happy!"

"I consider myself a little more than a novice on general construction when it comes to studding and drywall. I am also a bit of a perfectionist. I needed support to help me studd my unfinished 1700 square foot basement in a new construction home. After calling over a dozen contractors who would either charge me ridiculous prices or tell me that they only do projects like this from start to finish, I met Jordan from JWC and he agreed to take on my project for a reasonable price. I was a little apprehensive at first because his was a young business. Folks, let me tell you. Jordan and his crew came in and absolutely KILLED IT! After three days of back breaking work I was left with a perfectly square and plum studded basement. Throughout the job, Jordan and his team were friendly and courteous to my family and I. More importantly they tackled the work with the focus and know how of a 20 year business. I was floored by their efficiency and ability to navigate the challenging areas like the knee wall I requested along the back wall. I could not be happier with the professionalism and work that Jordan with JWC provided. All of which was provided at a reasonable and honest price. Thanks again JWC Recommend 100 out of 100!!"

"The contracted the work off to a third party. Jon took longer than expected. The windows was installed pretty good from the looks. Communication could have been better with knowing the job will take longer and what types of trims I wanted for the windows. As the contractor that was hired for this job by this company. Did a good job with putting up decent trim. As for the new windows they look great. I purchased the myself and hired sentri homes to install them. I will need to have a my siding on my house redone to be closer to the new windows so the gaps are not so obvious. That was not expected at first. But from old storm windows and not knowing how they were put in originally. There was some unknown things that was learned from the job being completed. I will have the siding of the house slightly done to match really good for what I wanted later on. My only concern is better communication with sentri homes. Overall they were great when I did talk to them."

"I would totally recommend this company! Ariel went above and beyond for me when replacing my roof and gutters! Ariel would call me and let me know he was on the way or if he was running even 5 minutes behind. My house looks great and I will be using them again come spring to start replacing some of my windows. Thank you Ariel! Your crew was great, too."

"Alberto and Elizabeth were great to work with. They provided computer generated designs, and our completed bathroom looks exactly like the rendering. The Kitchen & Bath Solutions (KBS) crew worked hard - sometimes late into the day and on Saturdays to complete the project. Everything was removed from the bathroom - down to the studs. We had a small shower insert that we replaced with tile. Because the walls were built around the insert, we actually gained another foot in the shower - it's very spacious now. We have new cabinets with soft-close drawers and doors and a beautiful new vanity, which was fabricated KBS. We love our new bathroom and would work with KBS again."

"We had VM contracting do the roof on our home a couple years ago and the work was stellar! When we needed the windows replaced we had Mr. Vinney come back for this job. 10 windows and a large bay window. The work, once again, was very well done! Very competitive pricing and on time completion. We will use them in the next year or so when we we do the siding our home! Highly recommended!"

The price was affordable and the work was great, once finished he cleaned after himself and made sure we were satisfied. I would definitely refer this company to anyone I know who needs any home repair work. Chris met our expectations and beyond with the affordable price and high quality service along with a time frame."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

The average cost to renovate or remodel a home is $52,300, with most projects ranging from $19,500 to over $88,400. However, costs can vary significantly, from as low as $3,000 for a small project to $170,000 or more for a complete home remodel.

Several factors influence the total price, including:

  • Project Scope and Size: The extent of the renovations, whether it's a single room or the entire house.

  • Location: Geographic location affects labor and material costs.

  • Materials: The quality of materials chosen.

  • Room Type: Kitchen remodels ($14,500 - $70,000+) are generally more expensive than bedroom remodels ($1,500 - $5,500).

  • Other Factors: The time of year, complexity of the work, and any additions or expansions.

On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $15 and $60 for standard projects and up to $150 for luxury renovations.

Examples of specific project costs include:

  • Basement remodel: ~$20,200

  • Garage remodel: ~$27,900

  • Loft conversion: ~$20,200

  • Disability accommodation remodel: ~$4,300

  • Major home repairs: ~$11,700

If you are financing the project, note that some loan programs, like the FHA 203(k), may require a minimum project cost (e.g., $5,000) and will necessitate a home appraisal and professional cost estimates. Using a home renovation cost estimator can also help you budget for your project.

Custom homes can take an average of 18 months to build, mainly due to the lengthy design process, and most projects take somewhere between 12 and 24 months. When you work with the right custom home builders near you, they can help you map the road ahead and understand what can speed up or delay the timeline. Choosing locally available materials, for example, can speed things up without losing that customized touch.

Craftsman-style homes are predominantly found in the Western United States, specifically in Southern California, where the style originated. Since the climate was mild and there was access to plenty of natural resources, Southern California became a hub for this style at its inception. That being said, if you consult with an architect near you, you can have a Craftsman-style home anywhere.

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.
