"Great builder to work with. Matt and Jeff were on time each day they were to work. They repaired a composite deck, a laundry room wall and put new dry wall on a covered porch. Matt and Jeff are very easy to work with. I would hire them before any other contractors. My personal rating for them is an A+."

"Overall we had a really good experience with McQueen Construction. Scott was very professional and he managed the project really well. It was a very tight budget and even tighter timeline for the build and they completed everything in record time within our budget, which was incredible. Really nice family owned and operated business I would recommend to anyone in the local area. Cheers!"

"Glenn and his crew from United Services went above and beyond my expectations. I had a bathroom gutted, water damage repaired and a whole new custom shower put in. The quality of the work is excellent, crew was reliable and very respectful. I also am having them build an oversized garage and cement handicap ramp for me, which is almost completed now, Glen even upgraded the garage door for me without charging me! Again, the quality of work is excellent. Glenn and the crew are very kind and patient as they explain things to me and helped me find the correct items for my projects. I unfortunately had several major plumbing emergencies recently while Glenn and his crew were working here. They jumped right in and worked with me to get the problems corrected offering me support throughout the whole process, making me feel more like family than just a customer. I highly recommend United Services to anyone who needs work done on their property, I guarantee you won't be disappointed."

"If you need a contractor in Grass Valley, I highly recommend Green Bee Construction. They did an incredible job adding a bathroom to our home and installing a mini-split to finish off our guest room. They are professional, easy to work with, and even helped us find a great painter and electrician. We’re thrilled with the results!"

"Michael and team did such an amazing job on our bathroom remodel. They took our tiny, dysfunctional bathroom and turned it into a true master bathroom oasis in a short amount of time during the holiday season. When they had the space down to the studs, Michael sat down with us and discussed in detail the best possible use of the space and we couldn’t be happier with our final decision after going through the options. Michael was great at communicating and we still stay in touch to this day, which we truly appreciate. Great team who does great work and I will absolutely be giving Waters Construction a call for any and all future home renovations. I’ll let the pictures do the rest of the talking."

"I worked directly with Jasmine. Jasmine was great to work with, very professional and relatable. She was understanding about the sudden changes in color and material I had during multiple consultations. She offered me a vast knowledge of materials and details about the work I hadn’t thought of or didn’t know about. If I have another project in the future I won’t hesitate to reach out to Sentri Homes."

"Mark was / is very attentive to our needs and wants. We gave him a hard timeline and he held to it. As challenges came up, which they always do in a project of this size, Mark’s experience was on full display. He was always calm and solved the problems. I would highly recommend Mark to all of our friends for any of their project. In fact, we have already recommended him to a few people."

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. 

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.

Turnbuckle weight loads vary depending on their size. Smaller 1/4-inch turnbuckles have a weight capacity of about 500 pounds. A 3/8-inch diameter turnbuckle, which is strong enough to handle most residential fence gates, can handle a working load of 1,200 pounds. Larger 1/2-inch diameter models have a limit of 4,000 pounds.

Common pitfalls include underestimating the cost of site preparation, overlooking permit and utility fees, and not setting aside funds for unexpected changes. Change orders during construction can disrupt your budget. It’s best to plan a detailed budget, obtain multiple quotes, and include a 10% to 15% contingency fund for unexpected expenses.

Renting the right type of storage unit is sometimes a more practical alternative to renting a storage container if you don't need regular access to your items. It saves you from having an unsightly container sitting on or near your property, you won't have to worry about permits, climate-control facilities are safer for some items, and you'll have peace of mind from on-site security.
