In order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, we take great care to work and communicate with every customer in a professional manner. Our reputation is based on service, safety and quality, regardless of how large or small the job. I chose to work in this industry because I have been handed a gift to work my hands early on in life, I have learned a lot working with my father, rsidential and commercial builders I worked my way through learning just about every trade and how they work together. As a result I bring many years of experience to the business, which I pass on to my customers giving them great quality in the work that I do. More than that, after working for a home builder in the Lehigh Valley for 8 years I came to realize it comes down to 1 thing. I love my customers!. We started in this industry in 1980. We describe our business as Family owned and operated Home Improvement Contractor #: PA040229 EXP: 7/15/2024

"Home Solutions did an amazing job bringing our basement vision to a reality. John Z and his team were professional, meticulous, and highly skilled at their craft. They made us feel at ease throughout the entire process, and completed the basement in just 3 months. Within that time we had a luxury style basement that included a full gym, entertainment area, bar, and walkout with an updated storage area to complete the job. They also installed a sump pump and other requested items that were not a part of the original plan. The new basement increased our property value tremendously, and the quality of work was consistent with our current finishes. We highly recommend “Home Solutions” with John Z if you are considering building or renovating your basement."

Major home repairs (general contractor) FAQs

A general contractor oversees a project from start to completion. They create the project’s timeline and schedule, hire, manage, and pay subcontractors and workers, and purchase and deliver building materials and supplies. They’ll also acquire necessary permits and HOA approvals, plan and execute necessary project changes, and make sure work meets quality standards.

Hiring an independent general contractor costs between 10% and 20% of your overall project cost, with larger projects incurring fees up to 25%. This fee covers complete project oversight, scheduling, and subcontractor management. The fee ranges from a few hundred dollars to tens of thousands of dollars, reflecting the full scope of the planned work and ensuring seamless coordination throughout the construction process.

General contractors typically provide estimates at no charge, but some may charge a small fee, especially for more complex projects. It's important to secure a written estimate, as it establishes a transparent agreement on project scope, labor, materials, and any additional fees. This helps protect you against unforeseen expenses and ensures clarity before the work begins.

When hiring a general contractor, you must provide an upfront deposit that ranges from 10% to 20% of your overall project cost. This deposit secures material orders, labor scheduling, and initial project preparations. An upfront deposit exceeding 50% is a clear warning sign and should prompt thorough contract verification before proceeding.
