"The project went great; I'm very happy with the final product. It lines up exactly with what I was looking for at the start of the project and looks better than I could have planned because of some great design suggestions from Wagner Home Renovation along the way. We ended up creating two separate closets from the previous closet incorporating some previously unused space in the condo as well. Both closets are accessed through very nice double doors. The laundry closet and general/clothes closet both look great. Wagner Home Renovation used high quality repurposed wood from a previous project and black iron rods to give the general/clothes closet great character. All of the work was very well done, and blends into the existing paint and trim-work so well, you can't even tell any work has been done. As an example, they added a wooden keystone at the enlarged entranceway near the new closets that was a very nice touch and feels like it was always there. They were able to save me money throughout the project by offering to use repurposed wood from previous projects that was often better quality than what would normally be used. Wagner Home Renovation does high-quality work and has a genuine interest in how well the end result turns out. They have a great attention for detail, offer great design ideas and options, and are responsive, honest, budget-conscious, flexible, reliable and easy to work with. I highly recommend them."

"Nice family business. Had some trouble with some employees getting started but Costas and his dad always took over and made sure everything was great. They did most of the work themselves which was important to me that someone was always on site. My schedule is crazy. Iâ m often not home and I trusted them to be here and get the job done without my oversight. We ran into some challenges, even added a few more jobs to the project. He took in stride, eager for the work and honest and upfront about what he could do what needed to be done? I enjoyed working with him, so Iâ m giving him another project"

"It went great. Chris built our custom home exactly to our specifications. We lived out of state for the entire build. Chris maintained open lines of communication with us so that we always knew what was going on. His work is impeccable. His attention to detail resulted in our dream home being exactly what we expected when we hired him. His group of subcontractors were great throughout the entire process. I have not spoken to anyone in the area that has anything but praise for Chris and his work ethic. Chris came highly recommended by a number of people and I would carry on that tradition and recommend Chris Johnson for any construction project from a remodel to building a new home from the ground up. I would certainly use Chris again for any future construction needs."

"Tim and his team were fantastic. We planned for a significant renovation including several structural elements, carpentry, electrical, and siding and Horsman Builders delivered. Tim was a reliable communicator and addressed our questions in a timely manner. We replaced an entire roof, added walls, doorways, re-did a deck and covered porch, replaced doors, replaced siding, and added new outlets- to name a few. We felt like we could really trust Tim and plan to work with him again in the future."

"We have hired Ben and his crew for multiple projects, from small repairs to a beautiful deck, as well as a complete kitchen gut and remodel. Ben's attention to detail is impeccable. He continuously kept us updated with progress and milestones as well as possible budget fluctuations due to requested changes. We were absolutely comfortable with having the crew in our home while we were gone. We have been absolutely thrilled with each of the projects completed by Griffin Ridge Builders."

"Dave and Steven did a wonderful job finishing our basement into 3 new areas, an office, workout room, and storage room. They also did a great job with installing our new electric fireplace. Estimates were provided within a day, the job started and finished on time and Dave handled all the subcontractors and inspections with ease. I highly recommend them and they'll be the first ones called when we need additional home improvements."

"We have used P Jordan for MANY projects but recently for a closet remodel. We had to replace a water-heater and the plumbers had to tear apart the closet in the meantime so we needed a thorough but quality job done last minute and quickly to restore the closet! PJC was there within days, and after work hours finishing the pieces until the sun went down just so we could get our house put back together as soon as possible. The quality was amazing and exceeded my expectations and was done at a reasonable cost. I likely would have paid double and waited twice as long had I used another company, and not gotten the custom closet I needed."

"Bob was amazing throughout the entire project. Was very knowledgeable about everything we requested and helped with the planning process from beginning to end. Gave extremely realistic cost and timeframe. Was extremely professional the entire time and always made sure to clean up and it never felt like we were in the middle of a “construction sight”! We were so happy with his work that we are planning more projects. I would not have any hesitation in recommending Bob for a project. You won’t regret it!!!"

Subcontractors FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can draw your own deck plans in many cases. However, you must know your local building codes and be familiar with carpentry principles. Even then, it's always best to run your plans by a professional contractor with experience building decks, whether you choose to DIY some of the build or not.

There are several different steps in the pole barn building process. First, you’ll need construction plans, which you’ll use to obtain permits. Then, you can clear the land so it’s suitable for building and installing the foundation. Your contractor will frame the barn using large poles, then rough in the plumbing and electricity (if your barn has those elements) before finishing the interior, adding siding, and installing the roof. 

After that, they’ll finish up the electrical work and plumbing and add your windows and doors. You may have a few other finishing jobs to do like painting or waterproofing.

While you will always work with a team of professionals at some point during your home build, homeowners with experience can take on some part of the process. Manage the initial brainstorm, brief writeup, and floor layout phase with minimal assistance before contacting a general contractor. And while you can purchase stock blueprints for some home designs, it's always best to speak with professionals when choosing one ideal for your property.

Costs vary depending on project complexity and scope. Architects generally charge a percentage of the total budget or an hourly rate for their services.

Italianate architecture is a reinterpretation of Renaissance styles, combining elements of Italian farmhouses and villas with Victorian materials and construction. This home style emerged in the Victorian era, gaining popularity in the U.S. in the mid-to late-1800s. The style came about in response to what many then viewed as the too-rigid and stuffy Classical style designs.
