Custom home builders exist to help you plan and budget for the home of your dreams. Here are a few benefits of hiring a custom home builder team: Knowledgeable - Our custom home builders have a wealth of knowledge about houses and what works well for each stage of the building process. They are also able to help you sift through your ideas for your custom home before the building starts. Your ideas need to be able to translate from paper to reality, which is not always the case. More buying power - Due to the high volume of homes that our home builders assist with building, they can buy some materials in bulk. In addition to bulk sales, the custom home builders at our business have built relationships with local suppliers. They know reliable sub-contractors - It’s not easy to know what sub-contractors will be reliable when you are going through the custom home building process alone. Our custom home builders have connections with companies who historically have done great work. Buying is hard - Trying to buy a house is extremely hard, especially if you are trying to get one that doesn’t need to be fixed up. There are bidding wars between buyers and often the seller will go with the highest bid because they want the most money. They are able to implement your preferred floor plan - The biggest win for anyone who decides to do custom home building is being able to control the layout of your home and pick the colors for every room of your custom home. Everyone has certain things they want already built in. Contact our custom home builders to get going with the process of home building. We look forward to making your house dreams a reality.

Deciding to remodel your kitchen is, by all accounts, a huge decision. It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of planning out your dream kitchen, so smaller details may become an afterthought. However, a kitchen remodel is a job in which no corners can be cut. From the preliminary ideas all the way to the installation of the final product, having a plan and being prepared is vital to the success of the project. Are you worried that you haven't taken everything into consideration? We’ve got you covered! Before You Start Your Kitchen's Existing Layout Attempting to build a brand-new kitchen from scratch over your existing kitchen can be a waste of valuable time, money, and resources. Rather than gutting the entire room, try to find a way to make some of the existing areas work in your new design. If you opt to move everything around, the costs can add up quick and you can be over your budget before you know it. Leaving the sink and appliances, like the oven, in the same spot will not only save money, but it can serve as the building block for your project. Your Budget Remodeling your kitchen is a huge project, and although you should be conscious of not breaking the bank, don’t look for ways to cut corners. There are countless adages around the belief that being cheap will end up being more expensive in the long run, and it holds true when it comes to remodeling and renovation projects. Using cheap materials or only considering the price when choosing a contractor can result in fragile floors that are installed poorly, leaving you in need of repairs or a replacement far too soon after the initial installment. When it comes to planning your budget, give yourself a generous estimate that accounts for quality work and materials, and as a rule of thumb, always tack on an additional 15%. Unexpected costs always seem to come up during remodeling projects, so it’s best to prepare for them to the best of your ability. Strategically Planning Lighting & Windows Strategically planning around your windows is a unique way to set your kitchen apart from others. Windows naturally make a room feel larger than they are, and the natural light windows allow in can highlight particular features if planned properly. Certain styles of countertop underneath windows will shimmer in the light even more than before, and hanging decorations where the natural light is the strongest can grab the attention of any visitor. When It Comes to Flooring, Paint, and Countertop Options Trying to find the right balance between style, timelessness, and complimentary attributes when choosing your flooring, wall paint, and countertops can be a headache. One common mistake is deciding to follow trends when remodeling kitchens. These trends, by very definition, usually don’t last long enough to deserve an entire room remodeled after them. The classics are a classic for a reason, so don’t feel like you have to stray too far away from options such as hardwood flooring. Rather than going for what’s trendy, go for what works. Certain styles of cabinets go well with some styles of flooring and poorly with others; keep this in mind when deciding your materials. Remodeling your kitchen takes a lot of time, effort and resources. It can seem stressful at times, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be fun! When you work with the right contractor, it can feel less like a project and more like the manifestation of your dreams (which is what kitchen remodeling should feel like!).
