Questions people ask before they build.
Straight answers for custom homes, cottages, renovations, and the nervous little moment before you finally reach out.
How early should we reach out?+
Earlier than most people think. You do not need finished drawings before a builder conversation. A rough idea, a property, a few photos, or a problem room is enough to start making the next step clearer.
Do you build custom homes and cottages?+
Yes. Borrelli Crafters builds custom homes and cottages, with attention to the property, the way the home will be used, and the practical details that make it easier to live in.
Do you take on renovations?+
Yes. Kitchens, basements, bathrooms, main-floor changes, exterior living spaces, and finish work can all be a fit when the project needs real craft and clear communication.
What areas do you serve?+
Marmora is home base. The crew works across Hastings County and nearby Eastern Ontario communities when the project is the right fit.
Can you help before we know exactly what we want?+
Yes. Many projects start with a feeling, a frustration, or a folder of inspiration photos. A good first conversation helps turn that into decisions you can actually build from.
Will we work directly with Matt?+
Matt is involved in the work and the conversations, but Borrelli Crafters is not trying to make the whole experience about one person. The goal is a crew and process you can trust.
What makes a project a good fit?+
A good fit usually means the homeowner cares about the finished feel, wants clear communication, and values craft over shortcuts. The project can be big or small, but the attitude matters.
What happens after we send the form?+
The next step is a simple conversation. From there, the project may need photos, a site visit, drawings, a budget conversation, or a clearer scope before quoting.
Still wondering if your project is a fit?
Send the rough idea. You will get a clearer next step without having to pretend you already know everything.
