"Prior to contacting Midwest Spray Coating, the area that I live in experienced record high rainfall.   I discovered a small leak in the crawl (a house that I was under contract to purchase)  so I contacted several contractors for estimates. This was a short sale so I didn't have the same remedies that would typically be available for a conventional sale.    The first two contractors weren't available for over a month due to the high volume of work that was caused by the heavy rain.  My third call was to Midwest Spray Coatings.  They were also very busy but when I explained that I was under contract to buy the house they made time to help me. Midwest Spray Coating supervisor Jason Kalinowski demonstrated to me that he was very knowledgeable.   I was prepared for the worst but he explained that it was a relatively minor leak that could be repaired using the two part injection method.  With his estimate in hand,  I was able to get an OK from the seller's attorney, the mortgage holder and my mortgage provider  to proceed with the work.   I called Jason and once again, although he had a full work schedule, he agreed to make time to help solve the problem.  When the work was completed,   Jason prepared a written statement detailing  the scope of work.  I presented the statement  to my mortgage provider who reviewed and accepted it.  We closed on the our house about 7 days after Jason fixed the leak.  This was a short sale and there was no flexibility with the bank that held the mortgage, so, I believe, without Jason's help we would not have been successful with this house purchase. Midwest Spray Coating's office manager Melissa was also very helpful as she arranged to have the statements that were presented to the mortgage provider sent to me on very short notice.  I also found Chuck, one of the company principals,  who I spoke to on the phone, to be very helpful and professional.   I wouldn't usually write such a long report but Jason, Melissa and Chuck  and Midwest Spray Coating deserve the recognition."

"Overall my project was a success! Off the Grid crew got this job finished within a few days. They were out there there from the time the sun rose to the time it set, and made sure to keep me updated with what got finished. At the end of the task, what made a difference in my experience was being asked if I was satisfied with the job. Many companies do jobs for the money, the difference in Off the Grid Construction is that THEY care and make sure their customers are completely satisfied before moving on to their next task. My experience with this company was excellent, kindness and caring people come a long way!"

"When we decided to redo our kitchen in April of 2012, we knew what we wanted fixed, our budget and that's about it. We started talking to contractors, kitchen design centers and researching ideas. We quickly realized we were in WAY over our heads. A lot of places offer free design services if you buy all of your materials through them. We didn't want to be tied down. We didn't want a complete tear down to the studs, either. Homemade Design to the rescue! First of all the price was an absolute steal for the service provided. Amanda and co. Listened to what we wanted and came up with inovative,functional and beautiful solutions. Our house is old. We wanted to keep that 1920s feel, but still have a dishwasher, granite countertops and stainless appliances! Amanda had the brilliant idea of only replacing the bottom cabinets. She also gave me excellent instructions on how to refinish my existing cabinets so they look like new. This was a perfect solution for US. Homemade Design gave us ideas for layout, cabinets, lighting, wall paint, appliances, furniture, countertops, backsplash, faucets, sink,and cusions for built in. She would have recommended flooring if we wanted,but we didn't. Now, Amanda is more like a consultant...( I actually called her my kitchen remodel therapist). You still are ultimately responsible for the plan and what works for you. If your measurements are off (like mine were) that's on you. I was adament about no island and no microwave over the stove and so she didn't put those in the design. Some suggestions were not my style. And I said so. Honestly, if I picked out my own kitchen it would be so safe: white subway tile or something. Amanda gave me the guts to mix patterns and create something spectacular! It took almost a year to complete ( contractors fault) We did a lot of work ourselves. We bought the cabinets, backsplash tile, light fixtures, table and banquette cusions through Homemade Design at a great discount, we checked!! If you try shopping for any part of your kitchen, the volume of choices can be overwhelming. We loved having Amanda narrow it down for us. Communication was through email, mostly. She never took longer than three business days to respond to my million questions or concerns. Awesome. 5 months later, my kitchen is a dream come true. And I owe it all to Homemade Design!

"He communicated with me every step of the way to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. It was done in a timely manner and it turned out better than I had ever anticipated. All for a great price too. I would definitely hire again."

"Johnny came out provided a detailed quote, explained what needed to be done. We hired him. He and his team arrived early, they did a great job. Left no mess behind what so ever. He was the third contractor that we met with and was hundreds of dollars cheaper. I would highly recommend him to anyone! We are considering him for additional contracting work."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

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.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
