I have been working for my grandfather who builds custom homes and I have just started my own LLC and trying to get things going. I have my Alabama Home Builders License. I can do anything from small jobs like decks or replacing doors/ windows to big jobs like remodeling houses or building them from the ground up.
"Back Story: We purchased a house a bit over a year ago wherein our inspector failed to note the rough condition of our crawlspace. After much research, I decided upon Phillip Madden's Exterior Waterproofing. The project itself was completed last August; I wanted to put the project through the rainy season of Alabama to get an idea of how well it went before I posted my review. As my rating shows above, I am absolutely happy with the outcome. Phillip and his team came in and swept my crawlspace by storm. By the end of the first day, my crawlspace already looked fantastic. That is a lot to say about a crawlspace... The full project finished earlier, and I seem to recall that his team put in 7-8 yards of gravel. In other words, these guys worked tirelessly and hard. Upon completion of the project, I installed a humidity recording device in the crawlspace to monitor the area. It was stayed at an average of 47% since installation. Prior to installation, there was moisture dripping off of the air ducts. Moreover, the air quality in our house has improved SUBSTANTIALLY. Fortuitously, we had a gravity drain already fitted. As it turns out, we will need to drop the drain and have a sump installed. You can count on the fact that I am about to call Phillip to do that work."
"Mr. Webb came out to do my estimate quickly after my initial request. I had some odd jobs around my house that I have been meaning to take care of. He charged me a flat, per day amount that I thought was very reasonable. I ordered the columns that needed to be replaced in front of my house and he told me that his crew would pick everything up from the store on the way over to do the work. It was the easiest process I have ever experienced with a service provider. He told me when they would be out, which was about 2 weeks from my initial contact ? very quick, in my opinion. I also didn't even need to be home since everything was outside that needed to be repaired. When I got home from work everything was complete and looked so good. I was also provided all of the receipts for anything they had to go out and buy to finish the job, which I really appreciated. The only not positive thing for me is that I wish I would have had an idea of how long each job would take. When I got home early that day to check the progress, they were already finished. There were a couple other minimal things I could have had them do (replace two lighting fixtures outside) if I would have known the time for completion on the other jobs would not take a full day, since I was paying a per-day rate. However, as I?ve said, the rate was very reasonable, so I wasn?t too worried about it. Overall, it was a very positive experience. I already know that I will use them again for a later project and have recommended them to others.
"I can't say enough great things about Jose and his crew. They were professional, thorough, respectful and the finished product is terrific. I highly recommend We Build It."
"Jason and his crew were absolutely amazing! Went above and beyond and I have his contact info saved now in my phone for anything needed in the future! Excited to find a handyman like Jason and his crew!"
"We built our home 38 years ago, and have worked with many contractors, maintenance and professional companies through the years, and Rivera Home Builders is one of the best. They built a new deck, new retaining wall and stairs, new siding entire back of the house, replaced all rotten eaves, stabilized porch rails/spindles on the front, new doors/frames, caulked, installed a chain link fence, cut/cleaned up several big trees, installed new window shutters, light fixtures/flood lights, painted my house/trim/stairs, and more...and they did all of this in just 11 days. Plus, their rates are reasonable."
"This company is owned and run by "old school" professional people who do what they say they will do. Everyone from the office staff to the crew that did the work to the owner Greg McBride were wonderful to work with. I wish I had know about them 4 years ago and I would have used them for everything in and around my home. I trust them and will use them in the future."
It can take anywhere from a few days to several months to draw up architectural plans, depending on the complexity of your project. Architectural plans are highly detailed documents that take time to complete, and any changes or alterations can significantly extend how long they take.
The process involves initial consultation, concept development, detailed planning, regulatory approvals, and integration of contractor work for project execution.
