What is Custom Built's Remodeling Process?
We understand that each person has their own unique priorities when it comes to remodeling. At Custom Built, we have perfected our process over the course of 20+ years in business - anchoring our roadmap with the Dream, Design, and Build stages. However, we recognize that our approach may not be what you are looking for. Dive deeper into our process to ensure that it aligns with your dreams!
What Warranty does Custom Built Provide for a Home Remodel?
An investment in a home remodel is a sizable one, so before you sign on the dotted line, you want to make sure that the home remodeling contractor you are working with provides you with a written copy of their warranty and so you can review it.
The good news is, at Custom Built, we feel so confident in our work, that we are the ONLY remodeling contractor in Northern Michigan that will provide you with a “Lifetime Workmanship Warranty”.
Other remodeling companies typically offer a 12-36 month workmanship warranty — with normal use (i.e., the wear and tear of everyday life).
By hiring our team you are getting a reputable and experienced home renovation contractor. This means you also get the added benefit of our vast knowledge about different materials and manufacturers, because each component, from floors, deck boards, cabinets, and more carries its own product warranty.
