"Garrett and his team removed a load bearing wall for us to create a larger living room. The job required demo, architect drawings, inspection, installing LVL beams, adding recessed lights, replacing wood flooring, and drywall. The whole job took about 4-5 weeks. Garrett walked us through the whole process and was always very prompt. If he said he would show up at 9 AM, he would show up at 9 AM. He was also very upfront about our costs?no surprises. Our new living room looks great! I highly recommend Garrett for any renovations!"

"Al and his team were wonderful! Al gave me a start date and a completion date. Provided me with a price quote right away, in fact I received it while he was still at my house! The entire crew, Bernie, Brandon and Jay were super professional and always made sure to clean up each night before they left. They all were wonderful working around our furniture and our 2 large dogs and 3 cats! I can not say enough about the quality of work. Al skim coated over old beboard, making it look like sheetrock! We also smoothed out a rough wall downstairs. Jay completed our upstairs bathroom, entryway and laundryroom, building a closet to enclose our heat system, and a decorative wall to hide pipes, and installed a new vinyl floor! Noah came in did the final touch ups and offered some advise on the painting of stair risers. They came out so amazing! I get compliments all the time. My husband and I had had 2 previous terrible experiences with contractors, but Al and his crew restored my faith in contractors! I can not say enough about all of them. I am so grateful for this painless experience! Personally, I feel like a 5 star rating is an insult, Al and his team deserve a 10 in my book! We will be having them back again to do phase 2 of our project! You can not go wrong with Big Al's Painting!"

"What we thought was just a rotted door sill turned out to be a much bigger problem. Rot had reached below the sill and into the foundation boards. Brian walked us through every step of the process and kept us in the loop if any surprises arose. He answered any and all questions we had, and we had a lot! Brian was also great at being transparent about supply costs. The decks he rebuilt are amazing and beyond solid! One of the most important things to us was his professionalism. We’ve had a number of contractors do work for us over the years that did below average work and a few that my wife did not feel comfortable around. The amount of pride and quality Brian put into our home is amazing and the fact that he was so respectful to us as people is the reason we will keep having him back. Absolute great guy and artist of the trade."

Closets questions, answered by experts
The time it takes to build a closet varies widely depending on the type of closet you want. A simple, reach-in custom closet can take less than a day to complete, while a walk-in closet may take a day or two, or even more, depending on its features. The pro you’re working with can give you the best time estimate depending on your project, but if you’re planning to DIY your closet, you’ll typically want to budget a bit more time.
If you have a bathroom closet with movable shelves, you can place them at virtually any spacing that works for you. Useful measurements between shelves in the working, or middle, section can be 10 to 16 inches for towels or linens. Lower or higher shelving could be up to 24 inches between shelves to store lesser-used or bulky items or boxes.
Custom closets cost around $2,100 on average, but you could pay anywhere from $500 up to $6,000 or more for your custom design. The scope of your design services will be the most significant factor, with standalone designs being the most affordable and design and construction services costing toward the higher end of the price range. Most closet design services include a closet and construction plan.
Custom reach-in closet: $500–$1,500
Custom walk-in closet: $750–$5,000
High-end walk-in closet: $2,000–$5,000+
Fortunately, there are no hard and fast rules or regulations regarding the height of closet shelving. However, the typical height for a single closet shelf with a hanging bar is 70 inches from the floor. For a double-hanging system, use 84 to 85 inches from the floor for the top one and 42 inches for the lower.
Yes, many providers offer design consultations to optimize space and functionality. Confirm with your contractor.
