"The bathroom entailed extensive work new floor, cabinets, walls, plumbing and electrical. His work was excellent and whenever there was a problem he took pains in explaining to us what the problem was and how he had fixed it. The out side professionals ie. electrician, plumbery, and plasterers he brought in were the best I,''ve encountered.
The front porch in a 90 year aldose posed some  problems. First we found that there were no footings underneath the front section of the porch. Kirt showed us the problem gave us the best options to remedy it and then fixed it. All the other work he has done has been top quality and to highest professional standards.
About 10 years ago we had a contractor re do a kitchen and bathroom. It was our first experience at remodeling and we thought we had done our home work. It turned out to me a long night maire. In contrast working with Kirt has been a positive experience and he will be the one I call for futher remodeling.
Some of the things about Kirt that the bid amount never tells you that put him in a class of superior professional are:
He is always on time and if there is a delay he contacts you and explains why.
He goes to pains to explain what a problem is and what can/needs to be done to fix it correcrly. He does not do junk work . It is either done right or he will not do it.
In a couple of cases it was almost comical when he would go over something explaining the problem and I honestly could not tell there was any thing that was not perfect. Ie. As our house is 90 years old one would expect that very little would be plumb or squarer. When putting in the back splash in the bathroom even the new walls were not perfectley plumb, so there was a slight hight difference in one end to the another. Kirt had to point this out to us but I still can't see it. What a professional!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

While you can use various materials like sand or even just soil, gravel is widely considered the best option to put under a deck. It provides excellent drainage and is resistant to water, fire, and pests. Gravel also helps anchor the soil to prevent erosion during heavy rain and acts as a built-in weed blocker, reducing regular upkeep. Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.

For a 12x20-foot (240-square-foot) deck, you can expect to pay between $7,200 and $14,400. This cost is based on a general price of $30 to $60 per square foot. The final price will depend on factors such as the decking material, design complexity, deck type, location, and local labor costs. Keep in mind that add-ons will increase the total; for example, adding an under-deck drainage system to a deck of this size could cost an additional $7,700.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

To prepare a deck for a hot tub, start by thinking about safe and easy access in and out of the tub. Homeowners should plan for steps or consider built-in seating, a level surface around the perimeter, and a clear, slip-resistant path from the house. A hot tub requires sufficient space around it for comfortable entry and exit, ensuring no awkward squeezing or stepping over high edges. Good lighting and handrails can also make a big difference, especially for nighttime use.
