"We needed a skylight installed in our bathroom, and MMP did an excellent job--we are very happy with it! The team was friendly and worked quickly and efficiently to get it done before it got dark, and the quality of their work was excellent. Matt was very friendly and nice to communicate with as well, and always responded right away. I highly recommend MMP Construction to anyone looking for great quality work and excellent customer service."
"On time, on budget and excellent workmanship. Subcontractors we're top notch, especially their electrician who went the extra mile and then some to satisfy. Will definitely call them first for next project."
"I hired Jesse's company to repair violations in the building code. Jesse's employee was very punctual, professional and a very skilled tradesman. I noticed during the project that they took pride in their work, and always went the extra step to absolutely do everything right. This experience renewed my faith in some contractors. Anything and Everything will be my only phone call for any work around the house. Even his sub contractors were a reflection of his company. Talented and professional with competitive pricing."
"I would not hesitate for a second hiring Horsman Builders for any of my house projects or remodel, in fact that is what I will do from now on. I was nervous starting a project having to handle things on my own but Tim made me comfortable with a detailed estimate, answered all my questions, kept me informed about the work, the site was always clean and the result is awesome, my neighbor was commenting on how great it is just checking it out from a window. Fair price, excellent quality and great customer service. A+"
"My project was small compared to many other projects out there. And yet Josh and Straight Line Constitution were happy to take my business and made it a priority. There was some urgency to getting it done and they sent the right number of people to meet the deadline. And when unforeseeable complications arose they worked with me in order to find a solution that would achieve the goal of the project without extreme cost overrun.
There are many contractors out there who will give you a wide range of quotes. If you want to go cheap then find someone who will do a half ass job for little money. But if you want it done right and you want it to last call Straight Line Constitution. The rates are reasonable the quality is top-notch and they're very friendly people to work with."
"I had P Jordan Construction do some finishing up projects around my house for mortgage inspection! They were clean, reliable, and efficient! Parker is an exceptional person and an even better contractor!"
"Responsive. Respectful. Reliable. MRC Construction did an outstanding job with my new siding and gutters! This was my first big home improvement project. I set a budget, began the research and ultimately requested bids from four suppliers. MRC was the most competitive, offered the product selection and warranty I was looking for and their schedule fit mine. Rodrigo is professional and patient and answered all of my questions. Marco managed the onsite work flawlessly. From the first phone call to the last walk through, MRC Construction is FIVE stars. I highly recommend MRC Construction and will go back to them for my future projects."
"Ted Hemlin has done quality work at our home to include a garage addition, new shed build, entry stairs rebuilt, and interior finish work in fitness room. He is polite, considerate, and a very hard worker who takes pride in his work."
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.
You likely need to hire an architect for your new house design and build, unless you have the design skills and experience with building regulations and standards needed to get your plans approved. If you are able to meet the design requirements, you can hire a draftsperson to create the blueprints for the builders to follow.
While it’s never too early to start planning for a major home improvement project like a home addition, give yourself at least a month or two to plan and design your addition, find a contractor, and get the permits in order. For larger projects like a second-story addition that require designing with an architect, plan on three to four months of preparation.
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.
Yes, you can finance cottage construction through several options. Construction loans provide funds in stages as work progresses, while home equity loans or lines of credit are available if you have existing property. Some lenders offer a combined construction and permanent mortgage. Always review loan terms and payment milestones before committing.
