"Erick and his team were timely, efficient, and overall excellent in completing two big projects at our home. The first was a build out for a tight attic space installing a swing door entry that gave us much needed storage. He lined the entry with lights and paneled over a large space in tight quarters. The second involved a storage room build out from a very unfinished space that ended with a beautiful storage room relocating piping and installing recessed lighting. The whole time Erick was timely, accurate, and professional throughout and delivered on time with high quality work. I will use Erick for all future home projects and highly recommend him and his team. "

At I Construction, we believe that any construction and repair project, regardless of its size or budget, should be executed with the same standards of quality and workmanship. We also believe that the people who entrust us with the safety of their home or property should receive not only the results we promise but also the care and service they deserve. Giving high-quality service and results should be simple, starting from answering the call of a potential customer and making sure he feels understood. After all, help is what he is asking, whether he wants to build his dream house or needs a minor damage repair. We keep that in mind from the start and throughout the project. We have the expertise and the competence to make his dream a reality or his property retain its value, but we are also helping and caring for someone who came to us with a specific need. And he simply expects nothing less than a job well done. So, we deliver what we said we can do for him.

"Pete Reichart did an excellent job on a major remodel. He’s a highly skilled craftsman who doesn’t take short cuts, and he worked on site every day. When decisions had to be made, Pete told me my options clearly and in plenty of time, so I never felt rushed. He brought in excellent subcontractors for plumbing, electrical, and painting. He’s also a very nice guy, easy to work with. I trusted him start to finish."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

It’s almost always more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build new construction unless you’re planning on building a new home yourself. A DIY house build will typically cost less than buying an existing house. However, new construction comes with higher property taxes, so long-term costs may be higher for new construction, even if you DIY.

The national average cost of a building permit is about $1,600, but this number includes extensive renovations. Homeowners typically spend between $150 and $2,000 in general on one or multiple permits for their project. Conversely, permits for simple projects, such as minor electrical renovations, could cost as little as $10.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Trex is not stronger than wood, but it lasts longer than wood and is heavier. Trex holds up well to the elements and is resistant to termites thanks to its resilient composition of plastic, reclaimed wood, and sawdust. Trex decking is rot and warp-resistant, making it especially useful in areas that experience a lot of snow and rain.

Yes, professionals offer various roofing materials, including shingles and metal, to match home aesthetics.
