Do you build on our lot or do you have lots available?
Both. We can build on a lot you own or we have lots available in several subdivisions.
Do you just have certain plans that you build?
No. Stonefield Homes is a custom builder. Designing and custom home building is our specialty. We sit down with you and discuss your needs and desires and design a home that is unique for you. We have plans that we've built previously, that we can build again, or make modifications to them for your specific needs.
What is the price per square foot?
This question gets asked more than any other and it is the most difficult to answer. What people need to understand is that the price per square foot varies based on the items you select for your home and, most importantly, the specific design of your home. The size of foundation and complexity of your roof are major cost factors. One-story or ranch designs are more per square foot because of larger foundations and larger roofs. Plans with more square footage on the first floor and less square footage on the 2nd floor are more expensive for the same reason. Exterior variables affecting the cost can be items such as brick, vinyl siding, wood siding, stone, stucco, columns, shutters, porches, landscaping, decks, etc. Interior features such as formica, corian, granite, vinyl flooring, ceramic tile, hardwood flooring, plumbing fixtures, cabinets, etc., all affect the square foot price. Once we know your selections we can better determine the price of your home and then we can determine the exact price of your home.
How long will it take to build my house?
The actual construction time for most of our homes is 8 months, depending on the size of the home and assuming good weather throughout construction. If we are working with you to design your home then you need to add several months for this process depending on how certain you are of your needs and the level of design and details.
Do you guide us through the homebuilding process?
Yes. Stonefield Homes works with you from the inception of your home design to the walk-thru of your completed home. Our superintendent will have numerous on-site meetings with you during the construction of your home related to such things as the layout of your home on the lot, placement of electrical outlets and switches, location of television and phone outlets, etc. We also have an interior decorator to assist you with exterior and interior color selections. There are more colors to select than people sometimes realize, that give your home its overall "homey" appeal. Our designer will help you select such items as brick, vinyl or wood siding color, shingle color, trim color, gutter color, window color, and garage door color on the exterior of your home. She will help you select such items as cabinets and tops, floor coverings, ceramic tile, marble, light fixtures and paint colors on the interior of your home.
Do you have a builder's warranty?
Yes. Stonefield Homes, Inc. guarantees your home for a period of one year from the time of closing. This warranty includes the building, roof, plumbing, heating equipment and electrical work. In addition to our 1-year warranty, we can offer you a 10-year structural warranty through Bonded Builder’s Home Warranty Association.
