Featured Reviews for House Framing Contractors in Alexandria

Horizon Building Corporation
House Framing Contractors in Alexandria
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 19, 2023
“Between 2002 and 2003, Michael Ipsan/Horizon took a small 1,800 square foot circa 1942 farmhouse and integrated an addition that more than tripled the size of the house and resulted in a beautiful contemporary farmhouse, with upgrades to plumbing, electrical, windows and siding in the original part of the house. The integration was seamless and the project came in on-time and on-budget, with wonderful workmanship. While we had retained an architect for the overall design, Michael made many useful suggestions on tweaks to the design that significantly improved the outcome. The kitchen and pantry were recognized by HGTV in their American Home 2005 show, and in 2008 the house was recognized with a spot on the Historic Garden Week in Virginia tour, both testaments to the quality of the construction. We've had other friends who've had nightmare construction projects with other builders; our experience was exactly the opposite. Warranty issues were minor, and Horizon has stood behind the construction even to this day. In the years since it was completed we've been happy to have Michael walk other prospective clients through the house to see what was done, which speaks to our respect for his work and honesty. We can highly recommend Horizon to anyone considering a custom home builder.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 24, 2019
“E&L is an extremely professional company with a friendly feel. They have completed 2 projects for me. I got 4 bids for my first job last Spring when I had 2 bathrooms remodeled, one of which evolved quite a bit of moving plumbing and electrical. The second project of a third bathrooms was completed in September. I did’t even get other bid for that because I knew who I wanted to do the job.”
JDS Construction Services LLC

“JDS finished our basement and did a wonderful job! Very professional, quality work, attention to detail, kept us continually informed of the process. There were no long holdups or extended periods of time when they did not work, which is a common complain I hear about contractors. Our basement was done in a timely fashion and we love it!”
Colonial Design Build
House Framing Contractors in Alexandria
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 2, 2016
“"Open-book" contractor, proving high-quality results and creative solutions to the challenges of new home construction. We retained Kevin and his team to demolish a waterfront cottage and rebuild on the same footprint as required by county building restrictions. Kevin worked with us through the permitting process to ensure building and environmental requirements were met. We obtained our plan from the Internet before finding Kevin and were not using an architect for the project. From our first meeting, Kevin was sensitive to our budget needs and provided insightful design suggestions to enhance our project. Kevin has been a pleasure to work with. The open-book contract has made it easy to evaluate the many decision trade offs of the new construction process, and keep us on budget.”
Bella Home Design
House Framing Contractors in Alexandria
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 3, 2015
“My wife and I are very detail oriented and when we found Bella Homes Design we knew that we are in good hands. We did a complete renovation on our 1970's home near Hagerstown, MD. Mark and his team were professional throughout the process and were always available to answer our questions and concerns. As a construction manager firm, the cost of building a quality home was less expensive than building a custom home with a traditional general contractor, and well worth it. He helped us on big and small decision along the process and the entire process was discussed up front. We are very thankful for the special attention to the details and fast response when needed that Mark provided us. I would highly recommend BHD for anyone looking to build a new house or an addition.”

NIROO
House Framing Contractors in Alexandria
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 1, 2021
“Working with the team at Niroo Construction, Inc and Haleh Design, Inc to design and build our custom dream home was an amazing experience from start to finish! We’ve seen many beautiful custom homes that were built and designed by their team and knew they were the ones to make our dream home turn into a reality. They are a talented company and we couldn’t wait to begin building our very own custom home with the Niroo team. They helped us with the house location, detailed design of the layout of the floors as how we intended to use with their professional expertise, the exterior layout of our dream home, and create the perfect Architectural and structural drawings needed for county approval. The most important thing was helping us plan an estimated budget. Overall our experience with them has been great especially their professionalism in this particular project. Our home was built using sound heavy structures along with a high-quality architectural design. Haleh helped us to use beautiful materials throughout the project as well as designing the interior finishes to picking out the furniture. Her team and herself designed the interior of the home from the flooring to the ceiling to create flawless finishing touches envisioned by us and the team at Haleh Design, Inc. Her expertise is very outstanding she goes above and beyond for everything she does and we had a fantastic time working with her and the team. Mr. Niroo was able to get all required items at the best possible prices, the entire project cost was transparent with integrity. We are thrilled to create new memories with our family in our new custom home!”

Custom Home Builder FAQs
The duration of a house framing project can vary based on the complexity and size of the house but typically takes anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Weather conditions, material availability, and any custom design elements can also impact the timeline. A reliable framing contractor will provide a realistic schedule upfront, including key milestones and completion date, allowing homeowners to plan accordingly.
House Framing Contractors select materials based on structural requirements, budget, and homeowner preferences. They often recommend sustainable and energy-efficient materials that align with modern building standards. Staying abreast of design trends and innovative construction methods, contractors attend industry workshops, trade shows, and certification courses, enabling them to offer contemporary and stylish framing options that meet current demands.
Before starting a framing project, homeowners should have detailed architectural plans and obtain the necessary building permits. Itʼs also crucial to discuss your budget, design preferences, and timeline with the framing contractor to ensure clear expectations. Preparing the site, including clearing the land and ensuring easy access for materials and equipment, will facilitate a smoother construction process.
Common challenges during the framing process, such as weather delays, material shortages, or unexpected structural issues, are addressed through experienced project management. Contractors anticipate potential obstacles and plan contingencies, like waterproofing the site against weather damage or sourcing alternate materials if needed. Effective communication with homeowners throughout the process is key to managing expectations and mitigating issues promptly.
