"Hired a professional to install 2 hand rails for my parents. One was installed on the front porch brick steps and one on the back porch brick steps. They arrived on time, installed both handrails quickly and safely. Handrails are sturdy, and now my parents lives are that much safer. Would recommend."
"Eric helped with Remodeling my living room, including rebuilding a section of floor and installing new overhead lights. Highly recommend for any renovations you need."
"Overall it was excellent! The quote was fair, all the workers were fantastic and worked really hard - even when changes needed to be made on the spot. This is a creative company and they will find a way to make things work. Especially like that they have experience in everything from re-doing floors to redesigning cabinet layouts, painting, tiling, etc. One-stop shop for sure."
"Great experience with Rangel Builders. Through communication throughout the project and we were so pleased with the work. Highly recommend and will definitely use them again."
"Walter and his team were very amazing! I purchased a home and wanted a new front and back porch. They took out the old one and built the new one just like I dreamed! Their clean up crew was superb . Definitely hiring again and RECOMMEND them to anyone considering home improvements!"
"Joe Everette is the absolute best in the business. He is a master at keeping on time and on budget, while providing top quality work and materials. He does not cut corners, he is particular with every detail. We honestly have no complaints at all. We are so happy with our new home which is in the last week or so of construction. We give him 100% + grade AA for an awesome job. No matter how many times we bug him he never acts irritated or like he does not have time for us. If you want top quality, he's your guy!"
"Great. I've been an Excel customer for years for my home power washing and deck maintenance and was in a bind because the landscaper I hired was a no show, so I gave Excel a call. The guys were timely in their arrival and completion of work. Their prices are higher than other companies I have used, but their quality of work is outstanding and well worth the difference in price."
Drawing your own floor plans is acceptable for many kinds of projects, including interior design and room layout. You can use floor plan software to create the plans but keep in mind that the floor plan will only be as accurate as the measurements you take and enter into the software.

The most common scale for residential blueprints is 1/4 of an inch equals one foot. This scale is the most popular because it’s easier for everyone involved, from professionals to homeowners, to understand the building’s actual dimensions. Also, it allows blueprints to have the necessary details without cluttering the page.
Most Greek Revival architecture homes are one and a half to two stories, depending on the footprint, which sets them apart from some Federal architecture homes that are three stories. The gabled roof on the second floor can sometimes cut into the living space, especially on smaller homes of this style, which leaves a much smaller living area upstairs.
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.
