"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."
"Pads are well built, have magnets inbuilt at seams to hold together. They fit exactly right and are good looking. They came earlier than expected and I used them by Thanksgiving and have used them to protect my table at parties ever since. No problems."
"We love our fence-- it's beautiful! Yet, while the final outcome was"A" worthy, a few bumps along the way unfortunately weigh down my overall rating. When I reached out to Artistic Fence through Angie's List, I got a timely response and an estimate soon followed. I liked the samples of their work, the price seemed fair and reviews on Angie's List were strong so we signed the work agreement and made our deposit without delay. The bumps were essentially the result of some inconsistencies in the way of customer service. Namely, we were not impressed with the crew that did the tear-out of the old fence and placed the posts because of their general lack of professionalism and regard for our property. I feel pretty strongly that every crew working residential jobs needs at least one person who has the soft skills needed to, at the very least, introduce themselves to the homeowner and say what they are there to do. If there was such a person in this crew, he did not introduce himself, which caused some unease. Plus, they did not space two of the posts correctly so one needed to be dug up and moved by the builder. I believe with more proactive and detailed communication from a project manager, my expectations could have been managed more effectively. For instance, I was expecting the crew in the morning of the first day so I stayed home from work to get them set-up with power and water. After a couple hours I inquired about their whereabouts. Turned out they didn't arrive until the afternoon and then worked for only an hour and while I understand the weather's heat was likely disruptive, I felt out of the loop. Or, perhaps that was part of the project plan all along, but based on my expectations they were late, left early and threw the job off schedule. Things turned around after I expressed my frustration over having a torn-up, exposed yard and being told the job would not be finished by the agreed date or two days after that when we were slatted to host an event in our backyard or two days after that. They responded with great service recovery?moving things around to send out their ?best builder? (perhaps owner too) to get things very close to finished allowing us to get our yard cleaned up in time for our party. He was great?friendly, understanding, and detail-focused. He was very apologetic about our experience with the earlier crews. He communicated how he was going to approach the build. When he finished, he gave his recommendations on care, including staining. He let me grab some scrap pieces to test stains. He even offered to haul away some old concrete footings from a separate project, which was very helpful. And, like I said at the beginning, the finished product is really lovely and has helped us enjoy our backyard so much more. Based on the final product, I think it?s a shame this project didn?t earn an A because the fence is truly excellent. The process in total was good, just falling short of great. I would certainly recommend Artistic Fence and I would use them again in the future.
"The crew was polite and arrived on time. The glass turned out clean. However, the frames and screen edges were wiped down poorly. Had to ask multiple times for them to re-do screen frames since there was still dirt remaining. After asking a few times, the response I received was, "We typically don't get that dirt up, we just wipe down the frames." Disappointing since I asked when scheduling service if they were able to provide a thorough cleaning, as I had mentioned that the windows had not been cleaned in a while. Had to end up cleaning the frames ourselves. Disappointing to pay for a service and still have to do part of the job afterwards."
"TC Upholstery was supportive and creative in helping to select the right fabrics and designs, they easily worked within my time frame, finishing much earlier than scheduled, and they proactively called me several times to inform me of progress. The work is fabulous, including touching up the wooden finishes. I could not be happier."
"We had Garden Structures & More add onto the beautiful privacy fence they had previously built for us, and we couldn't be happier with the final result. Our new and improved fence is even better than we had envisioned due to owner/designer/craftsman Hal's excellent ideas. All work was completed in a timely and professional manner. We truly enjoyed working with Hal and wouldn't hesitate to have him do our next home project. "
Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.
Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.
Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.
If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.
It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.
