Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a custom home build take?
Most fully custom homes take 10 to 16 months to construct once permits are issued; design and pre-construction typically add another 3 to 6 months before groundbreaking.
Can Hickok Homes build on a lot I already own?
Yes. The team begins with a feasibility review of the specific site.
Can the team work with an existing architectural plan?
Yes. It regularly partners with clients who already have an architect or a completed plan set.
Can I stay in my home during a whole-home remodel?
In many cases, yes, especially with a phased approach; livability and phasing options are discussed during pre-construction.
How are unexpected issues found during a remodel handled?
The team communicates the issue, cost and options immediately, and does not proceed without the homeowner's sign-off.
