How is Chis Hall Construction different from other homebuilders?
Chris Hall Construction combines the professional expertise and rigorous disciplines of the residential construction industry with a passion for great home designs, quality construction and a personal dedication to building trust in relationships with our customers.
We build only a handful of homes each year so that every project gets personalized attention. Chris will work directly with you from start-to-finish, and then work hard to make sure you’re still satisfied after you’ve moved in. He builds a home like it was his own.
We know what kinds of features and general style we want. How does this get turned into a plan?
At Chris Hall Construction we partner with a draftsman to plan and build a custom home that reflects your unique needs and style. During the planning process our draftsman will ensure that all areas are discussed and nothing is overlooked.
He educates his clients on the building process and various options, often providing advice and direction based on his experience. He shares detailed information so you fully understand every design feature and know what to expect step of the way.
How long will it take and how much will it cost?
Every home-building project is different when it comes to duration and costs. There are a lot of variables in size, lot preparation, features and the time it takes to plan and build a home. Chris Hall Construction believes that time spent with customers to plan their dream home is key to ensuring there are no disappointing surprises.
Every aspect of the home is accounted for and there are no hidden costs or extras. And you can be assured that we take our commitment delivering your home on schedule very seriously. We are very proud of our track record on building custom homes on time and within budget.
How do you handle problems?
As in any complex building project, unexpected things can happen. Because of the close working relationship you will have with Chris most issues never escalate into problems. There are many times during the building process where walk-throughs occur spontaneously and in scheduled on-site meetings.
Chris has a keen sense of detail and a dedication to follow-thorough on action items and issues that even the most discriminating customers have come to trust. When a house is completed, you and Chris will conduct a detailed walk-through to identify any finishing touches.
The items on this “punch list” are scheduled and completed to coordinate with your move-in and with your schedule in mind. You will find that Chris is “on call” long after you move in to help make sure you are satisfied with your home.
What is your warranty?
Chris Hall Construction follows the Indiana guidelines by offering the Indiana Statutory Warranty. To sum it up, 2 years on workmanship and defective material/installation, 4 years on roof and 10 years on the structure.
But Chris also knows that its future success depends on satisfied customers, and will not hesitate to respond to customer concerns after the home is built. The relationship and trust built during planning and construction serves everyone well.
Is building more expensive than buying?
At the moment, there is a lack of existing inventory in our area. This lack of supply increases the demand, which makes finding an existing home within your price range more difficult, and when you do find it, you may overpay for it.
Because of this, we’re seeing more and more families opt to build a new home. And they’re finding out that doing so is actually more cost effective than purchasing an existing home when you factor in the costs of maintaining and updating an existing home versus walking into a brand new product with builder’s warranties.
