Welcome to Builder In Your Pocket

Julie GrothBuilding or remodeling a house is a BIG deal.

In 20 years of building homes, I have seen people struggle through the process.  It can be overwhelming, stressful and difficult.

It doesn’t have to be this way. It is my desire to help improve the experience of homeowners.  The key is getting the right information at the right time – that’s what this site is all about.

It is so true that Knowledge is Power.

Knowledge about construction:

  • Creates an easier and less stressful home building adventure.
  • Gives you control and confidence about hiring, paying and managing your project.
  • Empowers you to make the right choices for your home.

Imagine having a Builder In Your Pocket!

This site is arranged with both Homeowners and Building Professionals in mind.

I’ve taken all of those overwhelming pieces of the building process and broken them down for you to explore at your own pace. With the right information, your home-building journey can be an exciting, creative and easier one.

If this is your first time constructing or remodeling, we have a great overview of the building process as well as checklists and in-depth information on specific topics.  Experienced builders and contractors can learn more about Green Building practices or use this site as a helpful tool to educate their clients. We hope you find the information and encouragement you need from Builder In Your Pocket!   We always welcome suggestions for improving our site or for ideas on topics you want to see.
