"I cannot recommend Founders Contracting highly enough! There are a lot of skilled contractors out there who do outstanding work. Once in a while you'll find a contractor who is also a good communicator and returns phone calls and emails. And occasionally you'll find a contractor with great prices who finishes on time and on budget. But it is rare indeed to find all these important qualities in one person, which is the case with Joseph Beatrice, the owner of Founders Contracting. Joseph converted a large walk-in closet into a bathroom for our home in Whitefish and completed the task on time, UNDER budget, and with attention to detail that demonstrates his pride in his craft. His quoted price was lower than other quotes we received, and he actually completed the project UNDER budget due to some negotiating he did with the City of Whitefish, as well as some electrical work that required less effort than anticipated. Joseph is truly the most business capable, customer-centric contractor we have ever worked with. He works seamlessly with subcontractors when necessary, and takes great care with meticulous finish work. The results are fantastic."

"We were looking for someone to pour a large patio slab and it's always a roll of the dice when looking for reliable and competent craftsman today. We wanted someone who who was honest (of course), who knew what to do, and how to do it, and communicated reliably. Logan was all of that AND polite, easy to deal with, punctual (and texted if he was going to be delayed), just a good all around human being. We will be calling him again soon to have another job done by him. Better book him soon before the word gets out and the wait times get long."

"I'd give Rugged Ridge ZERO stars if I could due to lack of integrity, dishonesty. For siding replacement Tallon exceeded the initial estimate by over $1,739 with the final invoice I was charged an additional $703 over the second estimate. That's contrary to the verbiage on Rugged Ridge's estimates as stated: This is only an estimate - it is the customer?s responsibility to review. If additional time and materials are required to complete the project, we will notify you as soon as possible, and additional material/labor fees will apply. Despite the final invoice giving me 10 days to payTallon demanded payment the following day after completion of the job! When Tallon arrived I asked what is the reason for the steep overcharge with Tallon remaining silent. Tallon has the audacity to refer to other contractors as being shady! I call that classic projection. I'll never hire Tallon Taylor again and I will refrain from giving him any referrals for his dishonesty, lack of integrity! "

The average cost of a paver patio is around $3,800 for a standard, 280-square-foot patio, but prices commonly range from $2,400 up to $7,000, depending on the size, the type of paver you choose, and any add-ons you opt for. The design and shape of your patio can also increase labor costs if your patio installer needs to cut curves in pavers or spend time arranging them in a specific pattern. Some additional costs to consider include site preparation and excavation, as well as additional materials, like concrete, crushed gravel, and drainage equipment.
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.
The average cost of stamped concrete is around $12 per square foot, but you might pay anywhere from $8 to $28 per square foot. The average 12-foot by 12-foot patio costs $1,730 on average. Your exact pricing will depend on the patio’s square footage, the condition of the area where you want to pour the concrete, the desired stamp pattern, concrete coloring, concrete grade, and local labor prices. Don’t forget to budget for extra costs like land preparation and additional concrete fortifications if necessary.
The average cost to enclose a patio to create a sunroom is around $5,000, and prices generally range from $3,000 up to $10,000. The price you pay will depend on the state of your patio and whether it needs repairs or additional structural support, the quality of the materials you choose, the size of your patio, and whether you plan to run utilities into and finish the sunroom. The price for a fully finished patio enclosure could run up to around $20,000, while you might pay just $2,500 for a screened-in porch.
In almost all cases, you will need permits if you plan on building a sunroom over your patio, but regulations and requirements will depend on your municipality. Permits to enclose your patio will usually cost between $300 and $1,000. Since navigating local building codes and zoning requirements is challenging—and the consequences of not following them can be extremely expensive—we strongly recommend hiring a sunroom builder to complete the work and pull the permits for you.
