He initially suggested $4200 & was using 2 rolls of wire we already had. We negotiated $4000 cost although I felt this was high, I needed the "availability" to complete the job as planned & used the date he suggested. We shook hands and agreed on the effort with the caveat that I would remove at least one side of all interior walls for access to bring electrical up to code & install 4 can light canisters in the LivRm. This drove our drywall replacement cost up. Drywall & can lights were all completed in 2 days. We agreed he would start work the following week on Thursday. No call. I asked for schedule so I could schedule drywall delivery. I called once - no return. The second call I reached Mr. McCoullough & he stated that he had another job that was urgent and it would require until the end of the week to complete. I felt I had expressed a sense of urgency as well & that I needed a schedule. That time came & went & no call to coordinate any delay. I waited until the following week & finally sent a text & received a call. We then agreed not to do business together although I even told him I would be alright with him completing the work if he would commit to a date to start/complete. This experience could be a rare occasion for this provider, however, I received this lead from an Angies List A+ contributor & I had to find another contractor. It has cost me time/money because of delay & lack of coordination. I wish Mr. McCoullough & his business well. This $4000 job is a large sum for us and we expected to be next in Mr. McCoullough's queue. We also expected follow-up & follow-through and this was not received. If you try this provider, just be aware that you will have to do all the coordination & potentially may be delayed anyway. I since found another electrical option, who provided an estimate of $400 less for the same task & no exterior walls have to be "cut away" or later repaired for him to run wire - - which also saves us time/money. I received a WRITTEN estimate the evening of the on-site evaluation and a date for service to begin. He showed up as planned and the work and permits are all in order. I will be listing his services separately since he is not currently in Angies list. He was also a referral from a reputable builder that we know from another county.

Had site prepped for new build. Very pleased with work; very professional. And price was reasonable.
Dwight was professional and enjoyable to work with - as usual! It is refreshing to have a builder that you can work with and trust. He started from nothing and created the Tiny House plan he was provided. During the construction, we worked together to revise the kitchen and bath areas and the...

"I asked for a quote, he came out, and I told him I needed it by a certain date for the adjuster. He promised he would get it to us. I had not hear from them by the weekend, so I sent a reminder, was told he would have it in the morning. By noon, I still did not have it, and contacted him again, and was told he would have to let this one go, because he was out of office and wouldn't get back until later. I gave multiple opportunities for him to get us a quote, but tired of companies like this making promises and not keeping their word. If he would do this on a quote, what would the work be like? I just needed a quote, and they had 5 days to get me one. Keeping your word to the customer is important."

FAQs for treehouse building projects in Athens, AL
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
Knowing if you need an architect for your project can be tricky, especially if you've never worked with one before. In general, small remodeling projects like replacing fixtures typically don't require the expertise of an architect. However, larger projects, like moving walls or adding an addition to your home, should include an architect to ensure the project is structurally sound.
The cost to build a detached garage for two cars costs about $26,400 on average. Prices range from $19,200 to $33,600, depending on your location, the garage size, height, materials, and site prep required. Additional cost factors include any plumbing, electrical wiring, and insulation. If you need to build a concrete foundation for a new detached garage, you can expect to pay $1,000 to $8,600 for this essential addition.
