Choosing a Custom Builder
- See work in or near Chaska. Local lots, local inspectors, local subcontractors — recent nearby projects are the best predictor of a smooth build.
- Verify the license. Minnesota residential builders must hold a DLI-issued BC license. We surface verified license numbers on profiles as we confirm them.
- Understand the contract. Fixed-price and cost-plus contracts split risk differently — make the builder walk you through allowances and change-order pricing.
- Talk to 2–3 finalists. Process and communication fit matter as much as the portfolio. Our free matching shortlists them for you.
