Featured Reviews for Builders in Forest Lake, MN

Nordic Builders Inc
Builders in Forest Lake, MN
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 May 2015
“Arne of Nordic Builders was one of three contractors I had bid on my total kitchen remodel and the first to provide detailed schematics showing me what he had in mind for the project (at no cost or prior commitment from us) along with a very competitive quote. All cabinets were to be custom built of the materials/colors/details of our choosing. We also needed drywall, flooring and electrical work. Arne provided contacts/sources for this work that were professional, wonderful and efficient to work with. Our add-ons (there were many) during the project were noted and priced at very reasonable rates. Arne didn't drop the ball once, provided great ideas at the beginning and during the entire process. He managed the project to a conclusion that was to our complete satisfaction. The cabinets are beautiful!! My wife has the kitchen of her dreams. While a total kitchen remodel can be a heck of an inconvenience, Arne made it fun. He is a true professional. We highly recommend Nordic Builders! Ron and Kathy Smith Hudson, WI.”

“Matt installed some doors and matched these well to existing frames and stain color. As we have an older home he needed to find and adjust sizes to what was needed.”
Carter Custom Construction
Builders in Forest Lake, MN
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 October 2015
“Jon Tabor at Carter Custom initially helped us with replacing 2 fireplaces in our home. We were so happy with the work and with the service that we decided to use them to help us with other remodeling projects. Jon helped to design and construct 2 new bathrooms for us--- and made the process incredibly easy. He went out of his way to help us find a design and products which fit within our budget. The professionals who actually did the work were trustworthy, timely, and did a beautiful job. I would highly recommend Carter Custom Construction and will use them again in a heartbeat for another project.”
Preferred Kitchens, Inc.
Builders in Forest Lake, MN
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 August 2014
“Everyone warned us that a kitchen remodel would test our marriage. Not true, Mark at preferred kitchens was great. He listened to our ideas added his own and we have the most wonderful kitchen. The team stayed on time 6 weeks from start to finish, the people who work for Mark are all professional. Questions and concerns were addressed immediately.”

“Dan's work is always second to none. He is a friendly, hard working Christian man who will always give quality work you are looking for. I am looking forward to him drafting up plans for my next project here in San Antonio, Texas.”
Home Preservation Specialists Inc
Builders in Forest Lake, MN
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 September 2014
“As a previous landlord, I used to have several properties in Woodbury. I hired HPS in many occasions when the need comes up in the past years. Each time, Darin did a great job! Even when he was out of town, he would arrange to have someone to come over to perform the urgent fix. I trust on his reliability, and I trust on his professional skills. I've recommended him to several of my friends and they are all happy with Darin's service. I'd recommend HPS to anyone without reservation.”
APEX Design Build
Builders in Forest Lake, MN
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 June 2017
“Apex was wonderful to work with from estimate through design to completion. Our project was remodeling a small guest bathroom (7'8" x 7'3") in a 110 year old house. We wanted a bath with modern amenities but in a style that was period-appropriate to our home. We replaced the shower/tub combo with a walk-in shower. The project was completed as scheduled and within budget. Workers showed up on time and cleaned up at the end of each day. Everyone was friendly, respectful, responsive, and professional. We felt they really listened and understood our vision for the project. Many thanks to the Apex crew, especially JB, Matt, Tony, and Steve.”

What discerning customer can possibly say there was not a single issue with a major house remodeling/addition while living in the home at the time? I'm one!”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Forest Lake:
  1. Local builders will be familiar with your local authorities building regulations, being able to advise on any relevant permits you need before work can begin.
  2. Builders near you will be aware of the climate of your area, and can recommend materials and construction methods suitable for your area.
  3. Building firms nearby will provide quicker responses and quotes compared to contractors outside of your local area, as they are nearby, they will often drop in to talk to you about your project and view the property.

For home builders, you will usually receive a quote for a building project instead of daily rates or hourly fees. The cost depends on various factors such as the type of job, builders experience and length of the project.

Expect to pay less for a small maintenance job such as brickwork repair or an extension of an existing wall than a new build project such as a kitchen or bathroom renovation and home extensions. After you’ve found a local builder for your project, speaking with them in detail about your project will help them give you an accurate estimate for the work required.
If you hire a home builder for a lengthy project, such as an extension, your builder may charge a daily rate. You can expect to pay around £350 per day for this. If your builder charges this way, ask for an estimation of how long this will take so you know roughly how much the total cost will be.

It is often a good idea to play devils advocate and ask what the builder will not be responsible for. Be wary of unusually cheap quotes. Ask for references and stories about how the builder has met different challenges along the way.
