Free computer drafting with general knowlege of design. I have 30 years experience in building houses. I am familiar with local subcontractors. I can get any job done at a reasonable cost.

"The work was done properly and when some additional jobs were added, Mr Grant went out of his way to get subcontractor's in to fix the added jobs promptly. I was very happy with the results and would recommend Steven Grant Construction to anyone who needed a prompt quote and a properly done job. He took the extra steps to finish my job within the quote so I stayed on budget."

This allows us to evaluate the improvements needed and help design a plan of attack that makes sense and is affordable. www.cronkhitehomesolutions.com

"Like some of the other people have stated.. they are pricey and they are also extremely busy. We worked with Andy as the sales rep and he was a great guy. We told him what we were willing to spend at most and he made sure we got everything we wanted for that price. I think people who are new to construction work might see these guys as a hassle but in all honesty.. the men they had working for us were some of the hardest working and fastest working men I’ve ever met. Everything was done in a week and a half.. and it is STUNNING! My only complaint is that we were supposed to get it started 8 weeks after signing and it didn’t start til about 12 weeks.. like I said though.. it’s a very busy time of the year. COVID-19 has everyone at home with their honey-do list and EVERYWHERE is booked. I would absolutely recommend Cronkhite.. always negotiate on price.. and make sure to check the work being done. Don’t watch them do something wrong and complain about it after.. If you have questions then ask them!"

"Very high pressure sales. For your own sake have cameras rolling during sales pitch. Don’t let them make you believe that the installation is done by Erie. Totally subcontracted. Talked us into choosing them even though they were 7k higher than other roofers with the promise of higher quality service that didn’t happen, job site was a mess had to inspect gutters they were not cleaned. They came back out cleaned said it was done got back up on ladder gutters still full and found damaged siding on back of chimney. After filling with BBB repairs and cleanup were done just not worth the higher price. Price started at $26 a square for metal and $15. For fiberglass after 4 hours of sales it came down to $21 metal and $10.5 a square foot fiberglass. I surely have buyers remorse hopefully this review helps someone in their decision. Also suggest reading this [*** Link removed ***] prior to reading all the A+ ratings on BBB Also make sure proper permits were pulled they did not pull one till after the install when I questioned it. Good Luck"

A family owned an operated business. Phone number (217) 679-5550. 40 years of Home Improvement experience. Financing available with up to 1 year at 0% interest and no payment for the first year with approved credit. All major credit cards accepted.

"I paid to have a re roof done on my house and garage which included all new drip edge as the contract states. Not only did they not do all new drip edge as you can clearly see in the photos they also did not wrap the edges so now there are big gaps where the sheathing is exposed. There was also a lot of garbage in my back yard and a bunch of nails in my driveway. Another thing they did was leave a bunch of black marks on the house from throwing old shingles off the roofs and hitting the house. When I brought that up, one of the workers lied and said that they are not responsible for that and that it says that in the contract. He ended up saying they will be “nice” and clean it off for me, But all they did was smear it and leave greasy spots that are still there 4 months later. The worker also told me, I have to power wash the stains off myself. I tried to contact the owner Paul Bryan several times with no call back at all until I left a message telling him he needs to call me back or I will take legal actions. He called me back within one minute. He told me he was sorry and blamed everything on his workers like a true leader, and said he would come complete the job I paid for and clean all the spots correctly in the next week. 4 months later, still haven’t heard from him. Another thing I just found out is he did not pull a permit for the job like they told me they would."

Small commercial and residential insulation installation.

"These people were terrible!! I called them because I was told they could fix my fireplace. When they finally called me back, they told me it was $150 just to look at it. Then they came out & took my $150.00 and never called me back. I started calling them and was told they would get back to me. Three calls later, I spoke with someone and 'he's been busy' and 'it'll be a while', he still hasn't check into parts. Which by the way I had the owners manual with part numbers and had given that to the repairman. I also told him I had clicked the link on the manufacturer website and found the parts and could order them. He said he won't put the parts on if i buy them. So, I guess I am out $150 and the three weeks I've been waiting for them. Poor customer service!"

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Exposed ductwork can sweat just like ductwork placed behind walls, sometimes even more so. Ductwork sweats—like a cold drink on a hot day—because of a temperature imbalance between the air in the duct and the air in the room. In a crawl space or wall, this temperature can equalize faster due to the small space but in lofts and open rooms, that wouldn’t happen as quickly. Many people insulate their ducts for this reason.

Just how long insulation lasts depends on the type of insulation you use. Fiberglass can last between 80 and 100 years, but it's important to start checking fiberglass insulation around the 15-year mark. Spray foam also has a long life span of up to 80 years, while mineral wool can last up to 100 years. Although eco-friendly, cellulose only has a lifespan of 20 to 30 years.

Insulation is professionally installed by measuring spaces, cutting materials to fit correctly, and placing them without gaps for optimal thermal resistance.

Duct insulation typically has a long lifespan, often exceeding 10 to 15 years. However, periodic inspections are crucial to check for signs of damage, wear, or deterioration. If you notice issues such as torn or water-damaged insulation, it may be time for replacement or repairs. Additionally, consider upgrading insulation if you're looking to improve energy efficiency or enhance your HVAC system's performance.

Yes, you should insulate your copper pipes to help regulate their temperature. Well-insulated copper pipes will be protected from freezing and can conserve energy by keeping hot water warm for longer. Foam rubber insulation tubes are the best pipe insulation to prevent freezing since they fit tightly around the pipes while still maintaining some flexibility.
