I work mainly by myself. I am good at all the skills listed. I work on building relationships with my customers. I treat people well and for less then most as I depend on return business & have a strong desire to do good work for fair prices.I have the ability to pull in very qualified help and if I am not able to do your job at the time you desire I will help direct you to people I trust.I realize there have been no new reviews in a long time. .I have established myself and many of my customers are repeats and I dont bother asking for new reviews. I relied on Angies list for a lil boost but I dont really check this page as Ihave become unhappy with their support team and the service they provide. If you want me call the phone numbers. Thank You. Please call me as I dont check this page enough and Angies is supposed to notify me in my email but fails more often than not.

"Shamus screened in an existing porch for me, ran electrical and installed a ceiling fan. He did a great job and my wife and I couldn’t be happier with the results! He was easy to work with and very reasonable on the price. Highly recommend his services to anyone in the area."

"Several years ago The Garage Authority did a polyurea floor in my garage and then returned and did my front porch. I have been so happy with the beauty, durability, and ease of cleaning that I asked about the possibility of doing my bathroom floor during a recent bath remodel. Mike, the installer, looked at my floor and said most definitely! The process took three days and at the conclusion, I couldn't be happier. My remodeling contractor, who had never seen this floor application done anywhere but a garage, was amazed. There is no grout, water resistant, a wide selection of colors, and very easy to maintain. Thank you to Mike, business owner Nancy, and all the crew at The Garage Authority. Very happy customer!"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Buying a house is easier than building one from scratch. Buying an existing home is almost always faster, even if you need to make renovations once you move in. When you hire the right team to build a home, they will simplify the design and build phases so that there is little guesswork throughout the process, but building new construction will almost always take longer than buying an existing home.

How long it takes to build a log cabin depends on a variety of factors, including its size and design, and whether or not you have to clear the land. Construction can take a few weeks for a prefab log cabin on an established site, but up to eight or nine months for a custom cabin on undeveloped land. In comparison, the timeline to build a house is typically four to 12 months.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

Yes, home builders need to be licensed in every state and municipality in the country. The specific license required varies based on the location and the work, but most states require that the builder hold a general contractor’s license at minimum. Some states and cities also require that plumbing, electrical, roofing, and sewage system construction require individual licenses, in which case the builder may subcontract the work. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that the builder you’re considering holds all the proper licenses.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.
