"Elliot is among a rare breed of craftsperson who has the skills and integrity to do work with a level of care and perfection that are hard to find these days.He explained to me all the various options and potential challenges of the work I hired him for. His knowledge of paints, woods, materials, workmanship and aesthetics is impressive.His wife is an interior designer, so he brings an added talent to his work. I would say that Elliot is more than a "handyman." He is a craftsman who knows how to get the job done, and done right, above and beyond my high expectations.Elliot is a sole proprietor and does almost all the work himself, but when we needed an electrician, he referred me to a great electrician who was hard-working and honest.When you want to improve the value, safety and appearance of your home, Elliot is the person to turn to."

"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"

"Completed three sliding glass doors in one day was very impressed. He removed all old glass doors and installed the new custom sliding doors to fit perfectly and finished my new beautiful doors with trim. He had amazing craftsmanship, was very punctual, trustworthy, and very fair in price. I am so happy to find this company, I have had work done by another company in the past and was left feeling unimpressed and disappointed in their finished work. They also gave me the run around for weeks. My search for a good carpenter has ended with MGM Carpentry! Thank you so very much!"

"Nyboer Builders did a great job! They were very professional. Travis fixed the roof leak and replaced the rotted soffit.  He did an excellent job making the new soffit match the old soffit on our 80+ year old house. Communication was great. Mandy manages the office and she was a pleasure to talk to and work with. This family owned business was a pleasure doing business with. We highly recommend them and we will definitely call them again when our old house needs the loving care of a professional roofer or  contractor. Thank you Nyboer family!"

Our understanding was that there would be a comprehensive survey and report on the home.  The reality was that the company was focused on primarily energy conservation and doing work to make the home more efficient in that regard.  They took readings and checked airflow but never really identified specifically where the problem areas were or any of the readings they took.

In the end there was no "report" only a detailed quote for the list of work they suggested be done.  Based on the cost and the very long payback period based on their projection of utility savings we elected not to go forward with their services. 

The staff was responsive and was conscientious about follow up and scheduling but I really did not need three visits to accomplish what was done.

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

It may be tempting to DIY the construction of a swing set to save money, but we don’t recommend it. Since children will use the swing set, the entire system must be solid and safe, meaning the cost savings aren’t worth potentially endangering them. Plus, most DIYers will have to build their swing sets out of wood, which won’t last as long as metal or vinyl and introduces the risk of splinters. Instead, hire a local playground equipment installer to ensure the swing set is built safely and efficiently, setting up your kids for fun for years to come.

Prefab sheds can be worth it, depending on your needs and goals. If you want to build the shed yourself or have a quick project turnaround, then a prefab shed will likely be worth it. If you want something more customized, then starting from scratch may help you achieve your goals better than a prefab could.

Yes, barndominiums can be two stories. Blueprints for barndominiums can safely support multiple stories or vaulted ceiling heights of 14 feet or more. Barndominiums are prized for their ability to be modified and customized to suit the builder’s preferences, and many barndominium construction companies offer a variety of different floor plans to choose from.

You don’t typically need a permit to build a shed, but it’s best to check with your local city clerk to make sure before you start the project. Every town, city, and municipality can have different rules when it comes to any home improvement project. Homeowners associations sometimes have restrictions on the materials you can use on your property as well.
