"The backyard fence that I share with a neighbor sustained damage during a recent wind storm -- five fence posts snapped at the ground, leaving the fence severely leaning to one side.  We braced the fence for fear that the lean would damage the remainder of the fence, which was still in good shape.  During the next few weeks I contacted several fencing companies in the region, some of which quoted me $2,000-plus to repair, while others simply would not even give it a glance because the job was "too small."  Finally, I got in touch with I'll Handle It handyman service (Dave Pfizenmeier) who responded within days to give me a very reasonable quote and detailed worksheet.  Dave fixed the fence at a fraction of what the larger fence companies had quoted -- and he was able to trim a few bucks off the cost by reusing some of the original materials and tacking on a 10% discount for using Angie's List!  We are very pleased with workmanship and professionalism, and so glad there is still someone out there that is willing to take on the smaller, but equally important jobs that some of us need.  I plan to use Dave in the future for other household repairs and will definitely have him in mind when replacing the entire length of fence in a few years.  A great biz!

"Bottom Line First: Charles (owner) and his team are professional and very customer-focused. Remodels can be disruptive and challenging for the homeowner, but this team will do everything it can to provide solutions and keep the project moving forward. It's a plus that they are also pleasant and personable folks to have in your home. This project involved totally gutting and replacing a guest bath and a master bath, last remodeled in the 70's, and included replacing all fixtures (tub, toilets, vanities, sinks, lighting, mirrors, tile, exhaust fans, etc) and expanding a small shower in the master bath to more than double its original size. This is a 60's home and came with the typical challenges. They found asbestos tiles under the old floor tiles which needed to be abated and a corroded cast iron sewer line (under the slab) that needed to be dug up and replaced. Charles was great about presenting options and solutions to complete the work. I asked a lot of questions and made some changes along the way and they were very customer-focused in providing explanations and suggestions. I also appreciate their policy of providing materials at cost and the ability to negotiate better rates with vendors than I could by myself. In the end, both bathrooms look great. Major construction is a messy process, but they were neater than most and sent in a cleaning service at the end. I would hire them again without hesitation — and in fact I already have, to replace a fence damaged in a recent storm."

Storm Shelters FAQs, answered by experts

The most accessible place to put a storm shelter is in a garage or basement, though you can work with a closet or patio if you have limited options. When you’re thinking about installing a storm shelter, reach out to a pro for some advice on placement. They’ll have a good idea of where on your property will be the best place for your shelter.

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.

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.

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.

Deciding whether to buy a prebuilt fireplace kit or build one from scratch comes down to aesthetics, available space, and budget. Many homeowners like the convenience and lower cost of prebuilt options—around $1,500—versus the involved planning and construction of a larger fireplace. Another bonus: you can usually move prebuilt units. Custom projects are more common when homeowners have access to a larger budget and more area in the yard to place the fireplace.
