"Mr Webb's work is very good and my wife and I are very pleased with his work, cost and work time.  We have used Complete Home Repair for several small repairs this year and have always been very pleased.  He shows up when he says he will and gets the job done.  So when we planned this latest project, we did not hesitate to call them and in fact did not even think about any one else.
We have in mind some other projects around here and will certainly call them first.  We found Complete Home Repair on Angie's list and have even found others for HVAC etc.

"First he called me back within the timeframe provided to me by the receptionist and was willing to come and inspect the areas on a Saturday morning.  Once he arrived, he listened to our concerns and inspected several different areas, the porch and garage.  Afterwards, he went over the options with us and stated that his first choice would be for us to watch over the next several months.  He showed us how to inspect the cracks ourselves and stated that we could call if we had any questions or ready for the work to be done.

The project was a complete gutting and rebuilding of a small bathroom.  We had a clear and comprehensive discussion with

Charlie Thornton about the project.  This allowed us to know what to expect, including when the work would be done and who was responsible for each aspect of the project.  The project went exactly as we understood and to our complete satisfaction.  Josh and Charlie were the young men who did the work and they were polite, punctual and diligent.  They were patient and responsive when we had questions and they did an excellent job of cleaning up as the project progressed.  We have no reservation about giving our enthusiastic and sincere endorsement to Dream Bath.  They did what they agreed to,when they agreed to and for a fair price which did not change.

Storm Shelters questions, answered by experts

Above-ground tornado shelters can withstand an EF5 tornado, which is the strongest tornado category on the Enhanced Fujita Scale. In other words, your above-ground shelter can withstand wind speeds higher than 200 mph. 

Prefabricated storm shelters can be assembled in four to eight hours. On the other hand, the time it takes to install a custom shelter can vary by days or weeks, depending on the builder's timeline and material availability. Bigger, more complicated, and customized shelters will take longer to complete than standard and prefab shelters.

Yes, many kinds of building permits exist for various projects in and outside your home. Each city sets the permit categories, but they typically cover new construction, alterations, and demolition. For example, you will need a different permit to finish a basement than you would tear down the patio.

Unfortunately, there are many disadvantages to stone houses. They are slow to build and the materials are pricey, both of which balloon the total cost. Stone walls require a more robust foundation, which costs more to install. Running plumbing, electrical, and HVAC through a stone house is much more difficult too, so homeowners need to seriously consider if the aesthetic benefit is worth the cost of building with stone. One of the questions to ask a masonry contractor is if a similar aesthetic can be achieved with another material.

Ranch and colonial-style homes are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average.
