"One of our rental homes had a bad house fire. We had to gut it down to the studs, kept the exterior siding, but everything else had to be replaced, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, plus walls, floors, ceilings, bathroom and kitchen. The works. Tyler from SimpleFix ran the project with his crew, kept in great communication, and stayed on it until we were satisfied with the finished work. His estimate was accurate, and we have received rave reviews from tenants about how grateful the place looks since then. We've continued to use SimpleFix for many projects since then, and we keep coming back to because they communicate promptly and get the work done right. We highly recommend SimpleFix, and we often refer them to friends and family, too."

"After a terrible bathroom remodel several years ago from another contractor, we decided to use Angie's List to find someone who could the job right.  We called several contractors and received a few quotes.  We were impressed with Todd because he took the time to explain what needed to be done.  He also provided some ideas that would improve the look of the bathroom.  I took care of the demolition so we could minimize the number of surprises that would come up during the remodel.  Todd was able to correct a wiring problem and partially correct a plumbing issue in the first couple days that was caused by the last contractor.  Todd had mentioned that there was going to be additional cost to correct these issues.  
During the project, Todd and Dave took their time and were very diligent in replacing the drywall and laying the tile. They did an excellent job with laying the tile.  However when they reinstalled the double vanity, the right sink was leaking.  I notified Todd of this and he stopped by the next day to complete the repair.  He said the sink should be fixed and we could use it the next day.  When we used the sinks, I noticed the right sink was still leaking.  I called Todd and he stopped by a couple days later.  He mentioned that he had worked on both sinks, tested them and everything should be working fine.  Unfortunately, the left sink was leaking.  I notified Todd early in the morning.  He responded the next day and mentioned he could stop over the following week.  Since this was the fourth time the sink leaked since it was reinstalled, we ended up reaching out to another plumber on Angie's List to fix the problem.
Overall, we are happy with the bathroom remodel but disappointed with the last two days of the project since it seemed there was a rush to the finish.  Some of the small details were overlooked and we have a sink that will be fixed by another plumber.   
I would grade the tile work and drywall replacement an A but lower marks on the plumbing.

10/12/15:  7 months since the remodel, we noticed the grout had a couple areas with hairline cracks.  Todd came out within a week and repaired it.  No other issues anywhere else.  The bathroom still looks great.

"My house was in a need of a major face lift. In preparation for the approaching cold months, and inevitably spending more time in doors, we wanted to make sure that all of our major updates were finished before the cold Michigan weather came sweeping in to spoil the summer fun. So naturally it was decided that the time had come to remove the awful wallpaper in the den and master bathroom!
 I met with four contractors, Elysium's bid was admittedly higher in price. However, based on their outstanding reputation and the detail and clarity that their estimator brought to the table we signed the contract.
All of the work was completed as promised and within the given time frame. There were no nasty surprises when the materials invoice came and the ghastly wallpaper is gone for good. Looking forward to spending time in my updated den this winter, thank you Elysium for doing a great job!

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
