"Bear built us a new home in Hedgesville. He and crew worked under some difficult times, supply shortage and virus. When all was done we are pleased with the job. We would recommend him. Looking for possible garage next year."

"This was the second time we have used Blue Ridge they are excellent.  The removed the existing master bath and retiled both the master bath floor, closets, and shower.  Kevin and his crew were punctual and always left the worksites in a professional appearance.  I cannot give them a higher grade but they deserve it.  All of the work is beautiful with all the small details addressed.  I am planning a kitchen remodel next year and will use Blue Ridge again.  They not only got the job done, in a extremely workman like manner the stuck to the original estimate except for some changes that my wife ordered.  Even the changes were extremely cost effective.  These guys are good.  I would recommend them for any remodeling work that you are doing.

"Went very well. They first worked to find out why existing units didn't work and provided a clear explanation of the problem with my options to either fix those unit or replace with new. I chose to replace the units and the work was done promptly and well. The units have worked great since the install and I have no complaints. I would hire again."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Shipping container homes last at least 25 years on average, but they can last even longer with proper maintenance. Since shipping containers are made from metal, they’re quite vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This issue is exacerbated in coastal areas or areas with a lot of precipitation. To extend the life span of your container home, install siding that protects the exterior. 

Yes, such as using eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient designs for long-term savings.

To get a quote from a builder or general contractor, contact them over the phone or online and explain your project. If you already have house plans drawn up, they’ll need to review them to determine the project's scope before providing you with a quote. Ask for your quote in writing and compare quotes from several pros before choosing the best one for your needs.

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 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.
