"Our log cabin in Mackinaw City, Michigan, was built in 1919 and the second-story (original) deck, which was also the roof for the first story, needed to be replaced. It was a big job and there was a lot of uncertainty about what they would discover when they tore off the old materials. Jason was just awesome, had ways of figuring out every little issue that came up, and Zack kept us informed all along the way. The original handmade railing had to be replaced completely because, of course it did not meet current building codes, but they all worked with us to find (and create) a railing that fit in with the rustic nature of the cabin while making the deck safe. They did a lot of little extras along the way, too, and did not mind all my questions. We would very definitely hire them again."

"TimberRidge Pro did a fine job on our master bath renovation . AJ was great at offering ideas and suggestions for products to use. He actually met us at Home Depot to help us make choices! That was VERY impressive! He began our job 2 weeks early (what contractor does that?) and had all of our products ready to go. He covered all of the areas leading to the bathroom and kept the job site neat and clean. That is also a biggie, because many contractors and their helpers leave messes! Not TimberRidge Pro! They clean up their worksites as if they were their own homes. After 6 days, we had a new entire shower, vanity with lighted mirror, sink and quartz sinktop, new luxury vinyl flooring, all new lighting, a plumbing problem from the old shower resolved, a new access panel to the shower installed, and the bathroom painted nicely. We had an issue with the glass shower door. It came in defective from the supplier. AJ obtained a new shower door that was much sturdier, tore out the bad one and replaced it with a much better door. (We split the cost of the upgraded glass door). AJ honored all of the line items in our contract and totally took care of some minor things on our punch list with ease. His price was reasonable and our new master bath looks amazing! We would highly recommend TimberRidge Pro for your next bathroom project and we would certainly use this contractor again!"

"The project from estimate to completion was on time and very efficient. My project wasn’t a big one but it was treated like it was the most important thing on their list. I really appreciated that. I contacted Adam to start the project, He sent Cory out to look at it, I got the estimate very quickly and Brady contacted me as to when he would be there to do the work. He was there and done before I got home. I knew he had been there, because my gutters were straight and very nice!

I highly recommend this company if you need gutter, work, awnings or custom showers."

Marble and Granite questions, answered by experts
Marble is very porous, so it stains more than non-porous quartz. Exercise caution when drinking wine and juice or cooking with oil near the marble fixture.
Dust mops are the best option for tackling dirt and dust on marble floors. Vacuums aren’t a good idea as the brushes and beater rolls can scratch and damage your marble floors. If you must use a vacuum, make sure your vacuum has a setting for hard floors, and take care not to apply too much pressure when rolling the vacuum across your marble floor.
There are no unbreakable rules of design, but experts recommend against using large tiles in areas with poor subflooring where they’re more prone to cracking, in areas where the floor isn’t entirely level, over raised areas or dips, and in bathrooms where budget is the primary concern. The size of your bathroom shouldn’t be a reason not to use large tiles; in fact, larger tiles, also known as slab tiles, can be a modern and sleek choice for bathroom floors and walls.
Generally speaking, it is better to cut tile wet when using a fast-moving wet saw to reduce dust and chipping. However, tile can be cut dry when using just about any cutting tool. Dry cutting will result in a bigger mess and may increase the risk of chipping or cracking, but if you’re just making small cuts, dry cutting is a safe and viable option. Cutting dry also means you can apply tile grout sooner, so it’s better for rushed projects.
No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.
The Brutus, MI homeowners’ guide to marble and granite services
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
Marble countertops have yet to go out of style, and likely won't any time soon. This strong, durable, and stunning material melds with most kitchen, bathroom, and even dining room designs. But how much do marble countertops cost to install?
The cost of porcelain countertops is affected by many factors, primarily the material's type (tile or slab) and finish, as well as your counter’s size and shape.
Granite countertops last 15 to 100 years based on usage and maintenance. Here’s how long your granite countertops will last and ways to increase their lifespan.
Quartz and quartzite are durable and attractive kitchen countertop materials. Learn the differences between quartz vs. quartzite countertops to find the best option.
