Most importantly, the quality of the cabinets, the design quality, and the service quality were poor and well below my expectations for the cost and promises made. For your reference this was a U-shaped small kitchen less than 10' wall to wall. These cabinet boxes and hardware are not any better than the low grade of big-box store cabinets, even though I bought the medium-upper grade of Kitchen Place cabinets. Their sales people will try to get you to sign a vague, generic, non-detailed commitment, then will refer to that simple document as their "contract" and will refuse to give you any further itemized list unless you have help from a general contractor to force them to give you an itemized list. When I finally did get an itemized list and saw that I was billed for a cabinet that was never installed I asked for refund, but they would not. Probably because I had already paid in full, and their sales staff acted like they didn't care about my business after we signed that first informal commitment that they then started referring to as the "contract" once we started having problems. My quote said "all wood" cabinet box....well I guess technically particleboard is "all wood" - get a detailed itemized list in writing before you sign or agree to anything One thing that was required by my wife - "our KitchenAid mixer has to be able to fit on the counter " - guess what, the design is about 1" too short so we can't even put the mixer on the counter because the upper cabinets are too close to the countertop. Something so simple that they failed at and refused to do anything about to fix. The hinges and hardware were the same thing as the cheapest hardware hinges I could have got from any big box home improvement store. Not what I expected for a $10,000 kitchen. The day the cabinets were delivered and installed it looked like a nice job was done, until I started looking closer. The Kitchen Place uses subcontractors for the install, and when we had problems, we found out that the Kitchen Place wasn't going to stand behind them for damages and we were told it would go through the subcontractor seperately. Our refrigerator was pulled out from the wall a few inches, and when I looked underneath it to see why - I found out that my brand new flooring had been ruined and the Kitchen Place's subcontractor left the refrigerator pulled out from the wall. Neither the Kitchen Place nor the subcontractor informed me it had been damaged so I guess that was done to hide it. (tears/holes in two places) Even though the Kitchen Place had several weeks notice in advance they were the last of all of the contractors to get supplies delivered and caused our financing plans to be moved back over 45 days with extra time extensions. We got the excuse of "the delivery truck didn't come yet" not just once but several times. This is a real inconvenience, especially when we have 4 kids and trying to work around these problems for meals, dishes, etc. The day the cabinets were delivered and installed, no countertop was ordered so then it was 2 weeks+ to get the countertop ordered and delivered. The excuse was that they were not able to pre-order the countertop because they couldn't figure out the proper dimensions until the base cabinets were installed? We had to put down boards and plywood on top of the base cabinets just so we could have something to work with since we had no countertop! Again, this wasn't just a couple of day delay, this was 2 weeks+. We were told that there was a $20 rebate per cabinet, but it has been about 3 months since the design was done and we haven't seen anything of the rebates and on top of that the finished installation still isn't done. We were told the kitchen design would be enough seating for our family comfortably - if you come to my house they cannot be seated comfortably. The design only gave us 90" to try to fit 5 people. Measure your chairs at home and see how that elbow room would work for your family.... The cabinet design to go above our stove in order to accomodate a range hood microwave did not work. The cabinet doors opened up too far and they hit the ceiling fan that was there so we had to take the fan blades off. The cabinet was also the wrong size, it was too tall and wasn't going to fit correctly. When I voiced my concern we were told 2-3 times that "no, its ok. all microwaves are standard and it will fit". Well how about you trying to cook on your stove and only have about 14" from the top of the stove to the bottom of the range hood for cooking? I call that a design problem, especially when the Kitchen Place designer commented earlier in the process that you should typically have about 20" of clearance above the stove for a range hood. The really agravating part was that the Kitchen Place made me pay for a new cabinet for about $270 and did everything possible to not admit their mistake. I was told my standard countertop height stove was too tall and that was the problem. I was told my light switch on the wall was too high and that I should re-wire it (because now the microwave was going to cover up about 1/3 of the wall plate for my light switch/outlet above the stove.) I was told that there really was no need to change the cabinet design. We felt we were getting bullied to just live with it whether we liked it or not. Finally after getting our general contractor to go to bat for us, the Kitchen Place told us (begrudginly) they would have their subcontractor come back with the cabinet and install for free, but we would still be charged for the cabinet. At this point my wife and I really don't want the Kitchen Place or any of their subcontractors in our home again, but we are feeling bullied enough and burned out enough that we just want this done and over with, so they are supposed to come this week. (by the way it took 3+ weeks for the Kitchen Place to get this one cabinet delivered to me). The subcontractor seemed like really nice person and experienced, but this job has not gone well. I place about 80% of the problems on the Kitchen Place and 20% of the blame on the subcontractor. The subcontractor worked fast, and cleaned up very well. When he left, the work area was very clean. Subcontractor was polite and friendly. We originally ordered the better quality cabinets they offer, and originally were told these are an "all plywood box". They are not all particle board, but they are not an all plywood box either. The back of the cabinet and the tops and bottoms in the cabinet are both a cheap panelboard type of product. There is a plywood strip on the back of the cabinet and the sides of most of the cabinets are plywood, so I guess that's what the Kitchen Place calls an "all plywood box". Maybe this is how most cabinets are made these days, but they shouldn't sell/advertise them as "all plywood" when they are not. I can go on and on... but you can see some of the issues I have had and would not reccomend this business. The latest is that I got a phone call from the Kitchen Place wanting to know about payment for the kitchen and their subcontractor hasn't even been here to replace the fouled up microwave cabinet. 8/30/13 (And I haven't seen any payment for my damaged flooring or any of the rebates on the cabinets) I've tried to b"},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/sd/yankton/kitchen-place-reviews-5654429.htm"},"position":1},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"American Exteriors","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"NE","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Margo M."},"reviewBody":"This company sent out canvousers, and we called them for new windows and patio door.

FAQs for patio cover service projects in Hartington, NE
While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct home features. Porches offer a roof that protects from the elements when coming and going from the house. Generally, porches are on the front of your home. On the other hand, decks are generally built in the backyard of a home and offer no roof or protection from the elements, like rain or snow. Porches typically require less maintenance and upkeep thanks to the roof, but both features require regular cleaning and repairs to maintain good condition.
The cost of an awning is $1,400 to $4,400 on average. However, this cost could be as low as $100 or as high as $7,500, depending on a few factors. The type of awning you choose, the size you need, and your location all affect your overall cost.
For example, portable awnings you can put up and take down yourself range from $100 to $400, whereas motorized awnings are more luxurious and cost between $2,000 and $3,500.
The cost to build a deck is $8,025 on average. However, this cost can range anywhere from $1,500 to $22,000, depending on multiple factors, such as size, materials, and deck type. You can expect to pay $30 to $60 per square foot when building a new deck.
Cedar decks are often the most cost-effective option, ranging from $4 to $9per square foot for materials. However, pressure-treated decking, which is resistant to rot, is more expensive, ranging from $15 to $25 per square foot for materials.
Awnings are either fixed or retractable and can be paired with a variety of cover materials. Fixed awnings are a permanent outdoor feature of a building. These are highly durable and require ongoing maintenance. Once installed, the position of this awning cannot be changed.
Retractable awnings are more popular than fixed awnings since the cover can open and close. This allows homeowners to open and close the awning, depending on the weather. When not in use, it can be closed to allow for extra space.
Besides the type of awning, you’ll need to choose the type of cover. Your awning installation professional will review your options with you, including availability and costs. The types of covers you can choose from include:
Wood, which is durable but can be damaged easily by rainwater and fire
Cotton offers flexibility, weatherproofing, and easy cleaning
Canvas is highly durable and is a good choice for retractable awnings
Metal is sturdy but is prone to rust
Polyester is easy to clean and is a more breathable option
Polycarbonate is highly resistant to UV rays and is difficult to damage
