Although Good Stuff was not the lowest estimate, we felt more confident with them and appreciated that if the move went faster we would pay less $$ since the cost was based on time. We scheduled the move and made it clear that we wanted it all to happen in a single day. Baased on that requirement, they recommended using 3 trucks and 6 guys to make the move. Shortly before the move we called Good Stuff to let them know that our house builder (we were moving into a newly constructed house) recommended that they do not drive the trucks on the driveway. So, based on that fact and steep angle of the driveway, Good Stuff added a 7th mover to the crew. They had one truck meet me at the storage unit and the other two trucks met my wife at our old house. They gave us a 45 minute window of when they would arrive and showed up in the first 15 minutes. The guys were very courteous to my wife and went through all the necessary steps to protect the doors and the stairs. They worked very well as a team and had everything loaded faster than we expected. They headed down to Elk River and after a lunch break showed up at the new house and started unloading. They took precautions to protect the new driveway from the end of the truck ramps. They used ramps over the concrete stairs and protectors on the door frames. All of the boxes that we packed were marked and color-coded according to which room they were going into. This helped keep everything moving quickly and the guys worked hard to make sure the boxes got to the right place. We were amazed at how well everything went. We had some large furniture going into the basement and the guys were able to get it down without any damage to the walls or door frame. When all was said and done, there might have been a scuff or two on the walls, but in the days that followed, my wife and I have added about 10 times as many scuffs to the wall so it was not an issue. We had a new hutch going onto a hardwood floor. One of the guys noticed that it was going in front of a fresh air return and recommended that we had pads under the legs to protect the floor and allow us to slide it away from the wall easily to clean the fresh air return. We told him that we had the pads so they put the pads on the hutch for us before putting it into place. They finished right on time and right on budget. We could not be happier with the service provided by the crew. You could tell that they knew what they were doing and cared about the belongings and the houses. I have only one regret regarding the process: we moved from a tri-level with a crawl space to a 2-story with a full basement. I wound up marking way too many boxes for the garage they could have and should have really gone to the basement. A couple of the guys realized this and offered to start taking stuff into the basement, but since we wanted to keep it on budget we told them not to worry about it. But I appreciated that they were more than willing to move some items twice if it would make us happy. All in all it was worth every penny and I don't think it could have gone any better!

"Garrett was very responsive with the bid and throughout the project. He raised our patio about an inch and a half, but had to stop before raising it higher, as he was concerned about the concrete cracking. I appreciated that he did not just continue the project. He did reduce the price quite significantly since he wasn't able to fully complete the job and the price was very fair."

FAQs for concrete wall construction projects in Elk River, MN
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
Concrete repair costs range anywhere from about $0.10 to $0.15 per linear foot to fill minor cracks, to about $6 to $14 per square foot to replace damaged concrete slabs. Repair costs vary widely depending on the size and type of work needed. For example, replacing 100 square feet of driveway will cost between $600 to $1,400, on average.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.
Concrete contractors typically charge anywhere from $6 to $14 per square foot. Cost factors include job size, site prep, base material, accessibility, your location, concrete finish, and concrete thickness. Removal of existing concrete, asphalt, deck, pavers, and grass will cost anywhere from $1 to $6 per square foot. Homeowners can often save money by removing and disposing of existing pavers, decks, and grass. Breaking up and hauling away concrete and asphalt is difficult and time-consuming without the proper equipment and may be worth having the pros do that work.
