"I can?t say enough good things about Swartz and the job they did on our house.  Aaron and his team are absolute professionals.   A major kitchen remolding project is very inconvenient for everyone living in the house (especially when you have kids).  Aaron?s team does everything possible to make sure the job is done quickly and correctly.  The Swartz team is very good about working with anyone (wife, me, or both) at any time.  They were also very respectful of being in someone else's home.  This was especially important since both my wife and toddler were home most of the time while work was being done. The project manager assigned to our project (Michael) was outstanding.  From the very start we talked almost daily. He always made sure my concerns were quickly addressed.  He was also very helpful at suggesting changes to my kitchen design to improve the look and feel.  It was Michael?s willingness for this back and forth communication that enabled this project to be successful.
   
Some of the best things about Swartz include:
1) Customer service:
I never worked with a contractor more dedicated to customer service than Swartz Builders.  From the start they do everything possible to make sure you are satisfied with the job they are doing.  Having a project manager assigned to the job makes everything so much easier and less stressful.  You always know someone is there to answer your questions.  
2) Responsiveness:  
          a. Project: The responsiveness of Aaron and his team was outstanding.   My primary means of communication with Aaron and his project manager was by text message.  I don?t think I waited more than a few hours for a response to any question or concern.  
          b. Quote process:  The quote process with Swartz did take about 3 or 4 months from the time I initially called to final quote.  However, when you get a final quote it is done right.  Everything is itemized in detail so you know exactly what you are paying for and why.  This kind of quote takes time and requires the customer to have a detailed project plan (drawings, materials, etc.) prior to the quote being developed.   Don?t expect a detailed quote unless you have a reasonable firm detailed project plan.  
3) Quality:  
Outstanding.  Everything they do is top rate.  When had concerns with how something was done, the project manager would walk me thought it so I understood why it was done that way and made sure I was satisfied with the work.  
4) Price/Value:  
If you are looking for a budget contractor Swartz is not it.  I gave them an ?A? because of the excellent overall value.  The customer support and work quality is worth the cost.  Many friends tell of kitchen remodeling nightmares (disappearing contractors, subpar work, major timing delays, etc.) this will not happen with Swartz.  They did everything possible to minimize my stress (and I am the kind of person that will get stressed out on even the smallest detail) and made sure the job was done to my satisfaction.        
My only negative experience with Swartz was related to getting hardwood flooring color/finish samples prior to the day the floors were finished.  Despite my repeated request for flooring samples (various colors and urethane types) they were never able to deliver this.  We were required to select the floor color and final finish the morning the floors were sanded and finished. Having to make that big of a decision in a few minutes is very stressful.  Getting a sample board with a variety of colors and finished a few weeks ahead of time would have made the process much easier for everyone.  However, I do have to admit the floors came out great.  Both my wife and I were very satisfied with the final product.  Note: Aaron did have the flooring contractor provide a quickly put together sample board with a couple of different floor colors the day before the floors were to be finished.  But nothing that showed what the final floor would look like.

"Excellent, its hard to find a company like this who is really dedicated to the work they do. Jerrod was always prompt, honest, and very friendly. He made you feel like you've known him for a lng time. I now know who to go to whenever I need ANY kind of work done on my home or the rental properties I own. A close friend referred me and I was a little hesitant at first, but after having this wonderful experience with his team and with SHB I wish I would've never used the companies i was using before."

"Having our basement finished was going to be a big job, so we interviewed three different basement contractors. Based on a combination of good Angie's List reviews and their strong interview and proposal, we made the decision to hire Artistic. The results are stunning and the basement looks great! We had them take a completely empty and unfinished basement, and turn the space into a work out room, bedroom, large bathroom with sink/toilet/shower, game area, full kitchen, family room, and storage area. We are extremely pleased with the outcome. We were also very impressed with the entire crew. They were friendly, respectful, and experts in their trade. We have finally found a contractor that we will use for all future projects!"

"I got a superior value for what I expected. Another contractor gave me an estimate. Fortunately, CSR conducted a more thorough inspection (knowing that there might be more issues) and identified problems that had I ignored, I would have wasted my money. Compared to other contractors I have used, CSR followed through on their planned work schedule, kept me "in the loop" on the status of work completion and any complications, and maintained a neat work area. As I have not encountered any insects in my home since the work was completed, CSR instilled my trust in them to perform any future work."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

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 load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
