If you are planning to build a new home, you know you need to hire the right builder for the job. Choosing a reputable builder with an established track record is critical to getting the house of your dreams. The key is trust. There are many qualified builders who take home construction seriously. They are business people who know that they have to earn your trust and work to keep it. They understand that their unstinting commitment to your project is the only way that’s going to happen.
In addition, to asking for and checking references, appropriate licensing, and insurance, qualify your builder by asking if home building is his or her full-time business. Some new homebuilders work part time. While they may be perfectly honest, they may not have the commitment to quality construction, adhering to schedules and budget, or warranty capability that a full-time committed professional would have. Also question how long he or she has been in business, how many homes he or she has built, the length of time he or she has been in business.
Another important question to ask is if he or she is a member of a builders association and if so, which one. You can check to see if the builder is in good standing with his professional peers. Often the builder’s associations require members to adopt an ethical code as a condition of membership.

Utah has two dissimilar regions sharply divided by the Wasatch Range (part of the Rocky Mts.), which runs generally south from the Idaho border. To the east of the Wasatch rise high mountains and irregular plateaus; along its western foothills lie the major cities of Utah, while farther west is the Great Basin. In the northeast the snowcapped Uinta Mts. reach the state's highest elevation in Kings Peak (13,528 ft/4,123 m). The dissected Colorado Plateau stretches southward, rugged and largely uninhabitable except in isolated river valleys. Deep, tortuous canyons cut by the Colorado River and its tributaries impede travel but create vistas of remarkable grandeur.
