"We were extremely pleased with the work done by Greater Lansing Paint Company. Ryan was professional and prompt with the initial visit to go over the exterior of our home with us, and his estimate was reasonable. The communication was great via email/phone to schedule time and eventual dates to do the painting. Lots of attention paid to details - thorough power washing, replacing boards when needed, caulking, and even dealing with wasp nest. Two coats of high quality paint were applied by brush and roller. The crew of Ryan, Trudy, and Chase made this whole process comfortable and enjoyable while working efficiently and on time. We are so pleased with the results, that we are now contracting with them to do the interior of our home in the near future. Highly recommend this family owned business!"

"Brilliant and efficient at problem-solving, installing, repairing, etc. Rob is great at explaining and listening, willing to partner and consult on other projects, and knows limits to what he can do and what can be done. Moreover, he is a pleasant and reassuring professional. We will certainly request his ongoing assistance as we upgrade our Wamplers Lake home."

"I am so glad I â foundâ Dick for my bathroom project. He contacted me the very same day I filled out a questionnaire on Home Advisor. I had received other quotes for my project, but I felt Dickâ s quote was very fair. The project was completed in the time frame he had given me looks great! They were respectful of my home, and cleaned up after each days work. He communicated well and I never had a problem contacting him with questions or even having to reschedule an appointment to discuss some details. He was very willing to â work with meâ . Dick is a very fair and honest contractor. I would not hesitate to hire him again. ð"

"Excellent work. From the beginning of the meeting with the sales rep through the workers that handled the deck replacement, they were all friendly and professional. When the installers arrived on day one, they had the old deck tore off and the new deck done except for the stairs. The next day they completed the deck and cleaned up the work site. Love my new deck and how quickly the job was completed. I will hire them again for other projects I need done."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

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.
