"The kitchen remodel is beautiful. David Devall is a perfectionist and a highly skilled craftsman. He gave fantastic suggestions to make the kitchen more functional. Whenever a problem arose, David was always there to be sure it was resolved. He was very easy to work with. We loved him so much he will be doing a bathroom remodel for us in the future."
"Excellent service. What is especially important for others to know is I purchased the windows 16 years ago. Twice I had issues with a window and the service was quick and I was not charged for the repair/replacement because of the lifetime warranty. Best investment I have made as a homeowner! Easy to maintain/clean and they look beautiful. Using locally-owned businesses is important to me and N. Masten has earned my trust and respect tenfold."
"THE JOB WENT VERY WELL. I WAS GIVEN A 4 OR 5 DAY TIME FRAME FOR COMPLETION & EVEN WITH A WEATHER SET BACK & ILLNESS, THE JOB WAS COMPLETED AS PROMISED."
"I contacted Mr. Ali in order to have him give an estimate for vinyl siding for our home. He arrived promptly and gave a very thorough presentation to show he was fully insured. He showed pictures of his work, awards and commendations he has received and the names of references. He showed samples of the product he would use, patiently answered all of my questions and gave his input when asked about possible colors that would go with our brick. His quote was comparable to the other quote I received, but I decided to go with Mr. Ali because I felt that he was an honest and fair businessman. I was not disappointed. He was in constant contact with me and his workers during the installation. He came to inspect the work and answered any questions that I had. The workers were wonderful and the job was completed in the amount of days that was estimated. The siding looks even better than expected! I would highly recommend Mr. Ali to anyone contemplating adding or replacing siding to their home."
"It took a half day of work to repair the structural problem, and another two days for the tear off and refinish. Prin was very personable and onsite much more then other contractors that I have used in the past. I hope this post brings his company many more referrals. I will surely use them again!"
"This was a rental house which the tenants were waiting to move in. The paint job was sloppy with wall paint on trim , small missed areas, inadequate coverage of closet shelves, and used a dirty tarp, spilling dirt from a previous job on the freshly steam cleaned carpets. Not to mention a small dab of paint on the carpet.
I gave the owner of the company 3 chances to rectify, but never completely would resolve issues. This caused much inconvenience for me, my wife and our tenants. "
"We could not have asked for a better job. He did better than we even anticipated. The cabinets and desk built in our laundry room were absolutely perfect and exactly what we wanted. We showed David a picture and he copied it perfectly. He communicated with us to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. He had a lot to do when putting in the stove. Cabinets and tile had to be cut out. Completed job was a professional installation that we are very happy with. We will without a doubt use David again and we feel very fortunate to have found him!! "
"Once I sent her all the measurements, it took her a little while to get the options back to me. Overall, they're good designs. However, they're very simplistic and give general ideas for space planning. I was hoping to have a better idea for sizes of furniture for the space and some variations on staging. Jill was very responsive when I did have a question. I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a virtual design done. If we lived in similar cities, I'd probably use her again for help with additional designs. "
"It was very easy to work with Diamond Finish Construction. All of my questions were answered and the craftsmanship truly brought my vision to life. The work was impeccable and very professional. The jobs were completed efficiently and exceeded my expectations."
It is technically possible to draw your own blueprints, but the process is extremely involved and really demands help from an expert. A professional architect has an understanding of design elements, interior design, the functionality of different rooms in a home, and how everything from furniture, outlets, and light switches should be laid out to serve you and your family best. Hiring an architect for blueprints can get expensive, but it’s the most responsible way to begin a new construction project. If you’re keen on DIYing, you could consider starting the process and then having a professional take over.
Universal design costs can be minimal when you add them during construction; however, adding universal design principles to existing homes can sometimes increase renovation costs. For example, a mid-grade bathroom remodel is estimated to cost around $30,000, while a standard universal design remodel can cost closer to $40,000. Adding accessible design components can include widening hallways ($500 to $2,000), curbless showers ($2,000 to $8,000), and widening doors ($400 to $800). Keep in mind that these increased costs can lead to higher resale values because universal homes may appeal to a wider variety of buyers.
While concrete walls do not need to "breathe" in the traditional sense of the word, they do require waterproofing and dehumidifying methods, particularly in basements below the water table. Concrete both contains moisture from its initial installation and can absorb water when exposed. Ensuring proper basement ventilation , installing a vapor barrier, and controlling water exposure are all important tasks.
Make sure you’re getting the right size to meet your space needs, including enough space both side to side and vertically to accommodate your RV’s features and allow you to safely move it in and out of the garage.
If you’re building an attached and enclosed garage for your RV, you’ll also want to give some thought to whether you’d like to add workspace, water or electricity, or additional storage. If so, you’ll need a garage with larger dimensions.
Regular meetings, reviewing drafts, and providing input on materials help align the project with your vision.
