"We hired Mike's crew to do a fairly good sized bit of work on our house that began in Dec of 2017 and was completed in May of 2018. -- SCOPE OF JOB -- - Building out an entirely new Full bathroom (with a large walk-in shower) - removing 3 dilapidated balconies, walling over (1) that was internal wall only (yes, it was a balcony INSIDE the house), walling over (1) that was an external wall, and replacing (1) with a large, new pair of double-hung windows - a complete and total renovation of the kitchen, installing all new cabinets and countertops, all new plumbing and electrical, all new tile floor and tile backsplash, new over-range hood vent, and new lighting, etc. - part of the kitchen reno included opening up a load-bearing wall to expand footprint of kitchen a bit, which, naturally, involved working with a structural engineer and dealing with requisite permitting - full demo and removal of an awkwardly installed fireplace and flue (not original to the house), which required patching of the roof above and the wood floor below - running plumbing and electrical necessary to place washer/dryer in the Den - nearly full renovation of 2 full and 1 half bathrooms: the 2 full bathtubs were left, but all had new vanity, sink, floor tiling, toilet, lighting - correcting water damage due to badly installed plumbing and exterior walls by previous owners - patching and completely reshingling part of the roof - putting up new cedar shingling along front and back of house where balconies were removed - fixing/patching damaged parque flooring by using extra "squares" picked up from area to be used for new bathroom - running new electrical circuits, as-needed - dealing with buliding, electrical, and plumbing permits and inspections with the town - a bunch of interior painting: all the bathrooms, all ceilings in the entire house, and a few of the larger rooms - installing 2 new ceiling fans, including one from a 16' ceiling - and probably a few other things I've missed. This was not a small job. -- QUALITY OF WORK -- Let's start with the end. The final product was GOOD QUALITY WORK. There's not a person who's walked into the house who hasn't said, "Wow, they did a great job!" -- and they did. The entire time I felt like they cared about how everything came out as if it was their own house. -- COST -- They charged a fair price. I never felt like they were nickel-and-dime-ing me. I'm sure you could probably find someone to do it a little cheaper, but they provide a really good bang for your buck. - THE INTANGIBLES - I live 250 miles away from the house, which presented a whole host of challenges on this project. I can't imagine having done this with anyone other than Mike's crew. For example, when crap hit the fan after a storm, they were on-site and taking care of things before I even had a chance to really freak out about it. They helped me with receiving items being shipped to the house -- appliances, materials, etc ... and not just taking the thing inside, but actually inspecting the item in question to make sure it wasn't damaged. More than once they caught a damaged item and saved my skin. It was like having someone I trusted on-site all the time. And you can't put a price tag on that. -- WHAT THEY ARE NOT -- They are not designers, so come with plans for what you want to do. I also get the sense that this project was on the larger end of projects that they deal with and, as such, I had to keep on top of the project, the progress, and the incoming invoices. I'm sure if you're just doing a bathroom or just a kitchen reno, or just putting in a new set of windows ... then this doesn't even pop up as an issue. -- AT THE END OF THE DAY -- I would use them again. In fact, I'll probably be reaching out to them soon for a quote on some roofing work ... because it's never done."

"You can't get better than Wally in terms of quality, professionalism, and consistency. He removed all the sand in our yard, filled it with loam, spread seed, and built a brand new stone patio. He took the time to explain everything to us and ways to improve the project, but NOT for the cost. He helped us save money every step of the way. For example, he showed us where water was pooling and how it needed to be diverted away from the patio, which he did for no extra cost! He showed up every day, all day, until the tasks were done and beyond perfect. You can’t believe the time, effort, and care he puts into these projects. He genuinely cared that we were happy and cares about his reputation. This care is evident in the quality of his completed projects. He’s also just super nice and a pleasure to work with!"

Guest house building services FAQs

In terms of construction, a log home and a stick‑built house often cost about the same. For example, a 1,500‑square‑foot cabin runs roughly $187,500 to $262,500. The price differences come from design choices and labor. Quality logs, complex rooflines, and specialty finishes add up, while a simple plan using local materials keeps costs close to those of a conventional build. Understanding these variables helps you decide whether a log structure meets both your style and budget.

Modern prefab kits streamline the build, but the upgraded finishes and design features mean they sit at the upper end of cabin pricing. You’re paying for precision cuts, insulated panels, and shorter build times, all of which raise the per‑square‑foot cost. While kits can still save on labor, expect the total price to fall within the higher range compared to a basic shell, especially if you choose premium add-ons or request design tweaks.

In many markets, building is the more budget‑friendly option. Purchasing a finished cabin means paying for someone else’s upgrades, profit margin, and often a prime‑location markup. When you build, you control the site, layout, and materials, allowing you to adjust costs as needed. Owners also tend to see a more substantial return on investment (ROI) at resale, particularly when the cabin is situated on ample land. Be sure to factor in land, permits, and any unexpected site work costs before making a decision.

The timeline for building a cabin depends on the design and site conditions. A prefab kit assembled on a prepared lot can be ready in a few weeks. A custom build on raw land—with clearing, utilities, and bespoke details—usually runs eight to nine months. Weather, material lead times, and permit approvals can extend the schedule, so budget for extra time when planning. Working with an experienced builder who lines up subcontractors early helps keep the project on track.

As cabins grow, the per‑square‑foot rate often stays steady, but the overall bill rises quickly. A compact footprint still needs a foundation, roof, and systems, so smaller cabins can feel more expensive per square foot than larger builds. Larger cabins, meanwhile, consume far more material, so even at $125 to $175 per square foot, the total cost rises quickly. Pinpoint your must‑have square footage before signing off on final plans.

Log cabins require more maintenance than conventional houses. Expect to inspect the exterior annually, clean and reseal it every three to five years, and address moisture issues promptly. The payoff for that extra care is longevity and character, but if you skip routine maintenance, small problems—like sun‑bleached logs or minor leaks—can turn into costly repairs. Budget both time and money for preservation to keep the cabin looking sharp and structurally sound.
