In Utah, the process typically runs from lot evaluation and design through permits, construction and a final walkthrough, with the builder managing every trade along the way. - [Build on Your Lot](https://hamblinhomesut.com/build-on-your-lot/): Building on your own lot means you supply the land and hire a builder to design and construct the house on it, instead of buying a lot and home package from a subdivision builder. The key early step is a feasibility review of the lot: slope, soils, utilities, setbacks, and any HOA or city design rules, because those drive the cost to build. - [Roofing](https://hamblinhomesut.com/roofing/): A roof replacement removes the old roofing down to the deck, replaces damaged decking, and installs new underlayment, ice-and-water barrier at eaves and valleys, flashing, ventilation and the finished roofing material. In Utah, snow load, ice dams and wind drive most of the details that separate a roof that lasts from one that leaks. - [Siding and Exteriors](https://hamblinhomesut.com/siding-and-exteriors/): Exterior contracting covers the building envelope outside the roof deck: siding, trim, soffit and fascia, rain gutters and downspouts, and the flashing and weather barrier behind them. Replacing these together, or at least planning them together, avoids mismatched transitions where leaks usually start. - [Home Additions and ADUs](https://hamblinhomesut.com/additions-and-adus/): An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) is a second, smaller living unit on a single-family lot: inside the home (like a basement apartment), attached, or detached (a backyard cottage). Utah's SB 284 (2026) requires cities with 5,000 or more residents to allow detached ADUs on qualifying single-family lots of at least 11,000 square feet; local rules on size, setbacks and parking still apply. - [Patio Covers and Awnings](https://hamblinhomesut.com/patio-covers-and-awnings/): A patio cover is a roofed structure over a patio or deck, either attached to the house or freestanding. In Utah it has to be designed for local snow load and wind, and an attached cover needs a proper ledger connection and roof tie-in so it does not leak into the house or overload the existing structure. - [General Contracting](https://hamblinhomesut.com/general-contractor/): A residential general contractor manages a construction project from start to finish: pricing the work, pulling permits, scheduling and supervising subcontractors, ordering materials, meeting inspections and answering to the homeowner for quality, cost and schedule. In Utah, contractors are licensed by the Division of Professional Licensing (DOPL). ## Guides - [How much does it cost to build a house in Utah? (2026)](https://hamblinhomesut.com/guides/cost-to-build-a-house-in-utah/): Building a house in Utah typically costs about $180 to $280 per square foot for a basic builder-grade home and $280 to $600 per square foot for a custom home, or roughly $400,000 to $900,000 in total, not counting land and site preparation (HomeGuide, 2026). Lot conditions, size, design complexity and finish level move the number more than anything else. - [Utah's detached ADU law (SB 284): what homeowners need to know](https://hamblinhomesut.com/guides/utah-adu-law-sb-284/): Utah's SB 284, passed in 2026, requires cities with a population of 5,000 or more to allow detached accessory dwelling units (ADUs) on lots of at least 11,000 square feet that have a single-family home. Cities can still regulate design, setbacks, utilities and parking, so check your city's ADU code before planning a backyard unit. - [Utah home building checklist: from lot to move-in](https://hamblinhomesut.com/guides/home-building-checklist/): Building a house in Utah runs in eight stages: set a budget, check the lot, confirm water, sewer and power, design for the site, line up financing, choose a licensed builder, get permits and build through inspections, then move in after the final inspection. This checklist covers what to confirm at each stage, with official Utah sources. ## Planning tools - [Cost estimator](https://hamblinhomesut.com/cost-estimator/): roof replacement and new home price ranges from published 2026 cost data. - [Lot checker](https://hamblinhomesut.com/build-on-your-lot/lot-checker/): To know whether you can build on a Utah lot, confirm five things: zoning allows a single-family home; water can reach it, from a city main or a well backed by a water right; sewer is at the street or the county health department will permit septic; power is at or near the lot line; and the house can fit the slope and any HOA rules. - [ADU checker](https://hamblinhomesut.com/additions-and-adus/adu-checker/): In Utah, an internal ADU (inside the home's footprint) is a permitted use in residential zones when the home is a detached single-family home, the owner lives there and it's rented for 30 days or longer. Under SB 284, cities of 5,000 or more must allow detached ADUs on single-family lots of 11,000 square feet or more. Cities still set size, setbacks, parking and design. - [Roof check](https://hamblinhomesut.com/roofing/roof-check/): On InterNACHI's life expectancy chart, 3-tab asphalt shingles last about 20 years, architectural shingles about 30 years, wood about 25 years, metal 40 to 80 years and clay or concrete tile 100+ years. Leaks, a sagging roofline, missing or curling shingles and heavy grit in the gutters are reasons for an inspection at any age. ## Service areas - [Weber County](https://hamblinhomesut.com/areas/weber-county/) - [Davis County](https://hamblinhomesut.com/areas/davis-county/) - [Salt Lake County](https://hamblinhomesut.com/areas/salt-lake-county/) - [Utah County](https://hamblinhomesut.com/areas/utah-county/) - [Roofing in Ogden](https://hamblinhomesut.com/roofing/ogden/): Ogden City requires a building permit to replace a roof. A replacement removes the old roofing down to the deck, repairs damaged decking, and installs ice barrier underlayment (required in Ogden), flashing, ventilation and new shingles or metal, fastened for the city's design wind speed of 115 or 120 mph. ## FAQ ### What does Hamblin Homes do?
