"The move was an excellent experience from start to finish! Arranged with Joe on pretty short notice to do the move. We had just a phone call or two - he picked up both times, no recording or telephone tag - and he arrive on schedule. There was a very minor pushback of scheduling time but Joe called to let me know, which was great. Joe and one helper moved everything into the unit on a VERY HOT day when apparently, to our surprise, the cooling system had not yet been turned on. Never a word of complaint from either Joe or his helper. Joe apparently has a lot of years of experience and he was great at both the moving part and the placement part, which is held the battle when moving into a storage unit. He handled my furniture and boxes beautifully and carefully protected our newly painted walls. Couldn't have asked for a better move and would hire him again in a heartbeat. "
"Jeff came to my house on the same day that I contacted him. He got on the roof and inspected the entire roof and took pictures. He gave me a quote the same day which was on par with other companies that I had already looked into. I still haven't fully committed to a company and I will definitely consider Jeff to do this job."
"Sunshine Home Cleaning did a spectacular job in my home. My home sparkles. They were meticulous. They were both very pleasant and arrived on time. I have already booked them again for the next cleaning. I highly recommend Sunshine Home Cleaning and Handyman Service."

Within this stage, framing often takes the most time, lasting anywhere from one week to a couple of months, depending on the home's size, the crew, and the time of year. Other parts of the construction phase include pouring the foundation and installing doors, windows, a roof, siding, drywall, and flooring. The planning and design phase can also be very time-consuming, sometimes taking months or even years, especially for a custom home. The final finishing process, which includes painting and installing trim, is typically shorter than the construction or planning stages.
