iCornerstone offers design through construction services and promotes Consumer Controlled Construction as a solution to over-pricing, under performance, unrealistic allowances, and quality issues. We provide designs, labor and material specifications, accurate project costs, camera monitoring, invoice review, project accounting, and construction support that allow the homeowner to act as the general contractor easily and with a minimal time commitment.\n\nThe first three carry an hourly rate of $100, while the fourth is 15% of the cost of the work as you have defined it.\n\nAfter a free Initial Consultation, we provide a proposal for the cost of our services.\n\nOur platform networks regulators, engineers, subcontractors, service providers, and suppliers involved in your project so that everyone knows what everyone else knows, which is the hallmark of transparency and accountability. Everyone is on the same page.\n\nTheir E-folios resolve the dilemma of "If only I had known, I would have asked." Everyone benefits, and nothing like the platform exists in the industry.\n\nClients must provide us the names of subcontractors we do not know as a means of proving to themselves we do not steer business or have a conflict of interest. This strategy helps our network grow and ensures fairness.\n\nOur free, online, Consumer E-Folio / Project Organizer / Property Profile / Research Tool will help you, even if you do not involve us in your project, comes with no strings attached, and respects your privacy. Simply register at icornerstoneinc.com and have fun using it.\n\nWe claim three remarkable achievements: no client has ever gone over budget; no subcontractor has ever been overpaid or unpaid without cause; and all clients receive the highest quality at the lowest price.

"Bill purchased and installed a new window in upstairs bedroom, removing and disposing of old window,  hung a pre-purchased storm door, disposing of old door and installed 2 bedroom doorknobs.  This work was urgently needed as we were having an open house that weekend.  Bill came right away (accommodating me at 7:30 am in the morning so I would not be late for work) and performed the fixes by lunchtime that same day.
Just in conversation, I showed Bill the bulkhead door we were replacing and expressed my fustration that the contractor we hired was taking 2 weeks to complete the job which was cutting it very close with the open house scheduled for upcoming weekend.  Bill told me if need be, he could come back the next day with a Bilco bulkhead and install it for me same day!  I wish I had taken Bill up on the offer, because the contractor we had previously hired did such a poor installation, it failed the home inspection!
I would hire Bill again for future carpentry needs."

"Reached out to get our roof replaced after some storm damage earlier this year and Dan Casieri got back to me immediately and was able to fit us into their schedule quickly! Dan and his son James came by for an estimate and surprisingly two days later their team came to replace our roof. Took them two days to complete both sides of the house. Highly recommend! Will be using them for other repairs soon."

This was a 3 month general upgrade to a ranch style house built in 1960. Main house is 3 bedroom 1 bathroom 38'x24' with a 1 room addition 20'x14' added on about 1970. I had the roof replaced and electrical system upgraded from 100 amp to 200 amp about 5 years ago so they did not need anything done at this time. Just a little history.

As for this project a lot of things were done for upgrading.

   Removed all old wooden siding and replaced with vinyl cedar impression siding. It costs about 25% more than regular vinyl siding but is well worth it if you can fit it into your budget.

    Replaced 17 old wooden windows with Harvey vinyl double hung windows.

    Replaced 2 old wooden exterior doors with therma true fiberglass doors and 2 new Harvey aluminum storm doors.

    Replaced basement exterior door with new insulated steel door.

    Replaced metal slider door off kitchen with new Harvey vinyl slider door.

    Replaced a total of 10  inside doors  to bedrooms and closets.

    Replaced countertop, sink, and faucet in kitchen.

    Did a total demolition of bathroom, new walls, new ceiling and new tile floor. Installed new water saving toilet, replaced

 old bathtub with new 3 piece walk in fiberglass shower. Installed new vanity cabinet with sink and new medicine cabinet.

Installed new vanity light, new ceiling light with vent to outside.

     Demolished old 12x10 rotted out wooden deck off  kitchen and built new 12x10 3 season room (veranda pvc) with interchangeable screens for summer and glass panels for winter.

    Replaced old wrought iron railings (showing their age) from 2 front cement stoops with new veranda plastic white railings.


 Owners Joe and Jim are very responsive to customers needs and questions. All workers are very conscientious and thorough in everything they do, they pay attention to detail which is somewhat unusual these days. I have another project in mind for a couple years from now and will not hesitate to go straight to these guys for it

Storm Shelters questions, answered by experts

The difference between a pole barn and a stick-built barn is in the construction. Large poles in the ground provide support for pole barns. For stick-built barns, 2-by-4 or 2-by-6 lumber (known as sticks) create a frame around load-bearing beams. Stick-built construction is far more popular for residential homes. Pole barns are more cost-effective because they require fewer materials and less labor.

Yes, particularly handy DIYers can build their own storm shelter, especially when using a prefabricated kit and an existing space. However, it is a large project that can take several weeks, requiring significant manual labor and heavy equipment. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often recommended. You should always leave certain jobs to a pro, such as installing an underground shelter, projects requiring site excavation, or any custom-designed structures. These types of builds are complex, labor-intensive, and can cost more in the long run if not executed properly.

While a log cabin is often less expensive to build than a typical home, cabins actually have a similar cost per square foot. The main difference affecting price is that log cabins tend to be much smaller than traditional homes. For instance, many cabins are about 500 square feet, versus a traditional house which averages between 2,000 and 3,000 square feet.

Sustainable materials and energy-efficient designs support greener construction options.

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.
