"It was a steady process. Of course there were hiccups along the way, but with Renaissance & myself working as a TEAM on this project, everything was done & done well. I do believe that is KEY on any project, especially one of this size. I told Jamie at the beginning of the project that communication was VERY important to me. Jamie was quick to address any questions or concerns I had. He picked up my calls every time. I will hire Renaissance Restoration for all home improvements and/or updates."
"10x12 deck built and a new interior door installed leading out to new deck. Mr. Hillard was professional and takes pride in his work. We are so happy with the end result, can't wait for warm weather so we can sit on it and watch the sunsets and watch the world go by."
"To say that Krutsch’s Renovations made sure I got my money worth is an absolute understatement!! These guys blew my expectations clear out of the water! If you want a half a** job Jacob is not the guy to contact! The professionalism, the high quality work and the speed from start to finish Is exactly what I wanted! DEFINITELY recommend 5 Stars!!!"
"his is an amazing company. Incredibly courteous, polite, patient, professional, and kind. They also use more natural methods to clean the rest of a house (after bombing the actual source of mold). INCLUDING, using Thieves Oil (Equivalent of DoTerra's OnGuard) in their steam cleaning! Also, just because they saw something that needed fixing, they fixed it for me, for free! Although some dust was left in areas, we have seen a dramatic improvement in the health of our youngest. This is a company that I will never hesitate to recommend, so thankful to have found them. They were such a blessing to our family!"
"Derek Cole is fantastic. Very conscientious and wants the customer to be happy first and foremost. He’s professional, honest and incredibly hardworking. I highly recommend him."
"I never contacted the provider or used this service in anyway. I have to write this review so that the request to write this review stops popping up. The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit. "
"Todd was great! Easy communication and flexible with scheduling when we needed the work done by a certain day. He was professional, courteous and did excellent work! We will definitely be calling All Degrees Carpentries again!"
Universal design costs can be minimal when you add them during construction; however, adding universal design principles to existing homes can sometimes increase renovation costs. For example, a mid-grade bathroom remodel is estimated to cost around $30,000, while a standard universal design remodel can cost closer to $40,000. Adding accessible design components can include widening hallways ($500 to $2,000), curbless showers ($2,000 to $8,000), and widening doors ($400 to $800). Keep in mind that these increased costs can lead to higher resale values because universal homes may appeal to a wider variety of buyers.
A split-level home is one that has several staggered floors connected by short staircases, while a split floor plan separates the primary bedroom from the rest of the bedrooms. Split floor plans are most often found in single-story homes, while split-level homes are always at least two stories.
While it’s never too early to start planning for a major home improvement project like a home addition, give yourself at least a month or two to plan and design your addition, find a contractor, and get the permits in order. For larger projects like a second-story addition that require designing with an architect, plan on three to four months of preparation.
Regular meetings, reviewing drafts, and providing input on materials help align the project with your vision.
The best way to start designing a house is to know what you want before designing. Making a list of your biggest priorities in a home will help. Designing a house without an idea of what you need or want in a home will lead to many trials and errors that could make it harder to figure out what you need in your design.
