I moved mountains in my schedule & family to ensure I was at the property early Monday morning to meet him for 8 am. At 6:30 am he texted a cancellation due to stomach trouble, but would get back to me to reschedule for later in the week. No problem. Following day, Tuesday, I inquired if he was feeling better and if he knew which day he would return, as the tenant was moving in the approaching Saturday as discussed. He replied, I quote, "... do it yourself... good bye." Confused, I followed up with more text & calls, but he was indeed abandoning my project at the 11th hour. Needless to say, relying on the services of Fysh Electric completely screwed me as I was unable to complete the tenants apartment in time, which was frustrating to no end and led to many inconveniences down the road. So, if you hire Nate, just watch which Nate you get, because it's a flip of the coin if you get professional Nate or complete a***** Nate who is rude, doesn't give a crap and will screw you.

He had several men help him at different periods of time and I found them all to be both courteous and professional. The work in the basement is completed and looks very nice, but the important part for me was not the presentation so much as the soundness of the work, that the basement would be warm and old mice infested insulation disposed of, that the water now flows to the outside, and the area is presentable to clients who come to the house. Brent is very pleasant to work with, and he was generous with his willingness to follow through with my requests on how to behave around the dogs that I work with. He not only followed my instructions but was careful to fill anyone else in who might be working with him that day. I trust Brent, I would never worry about leaving my home to him. He is concerned about the people he works with, and very much wants to complete a job to the satisfaction of the owner. I did not choose Brent to do the largest project only because of the many requirements of speciality workers needed to complete the job including site excavation, plumbing and septic work, electrical, fencing, as well as building. It was too large for a small business to try to complete in a short period of time but I do not doubt that Brent (given sufficient time) could have put together a group to do the job well. Brent s strongest attribute I believe is his ability to problem solve and create unique spaces. He thinks quickly and clearly spends time while away from the job thinking about the best way to go about a project or solve a problem "},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/nh/plymouth/brent-harlow-designerbuilder-reviews-2058463.htm"},"position":6},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Bill Wenzel Heating and Air Conditioning","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"NH","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Jim H."},"reviewBody":"I had difficulty finding someone to come in and install a geothermal heating and air conditioning central ductwork system using heat from ground water to heat and cool my house. I spent a great deal of time not finding the right company until I came across a company called Bill Wenzel Heating and Air Conditioning Inc. He gave me a quote based on phone calls, emails, drawings of all 3 levels of the house, and is installing just what I wanted and doing an excellent job. He appears to be very conscientious about details, I learned he has the most experience in NH at 15 years in geothermal. Many of the companies I contacted had little or no experience at geothermal but were going to give me a quotation and I had to say \"no thanks\". I was surprised at how many went to a training school for geothermal but have yet to do their first nstallation. That made me very uncomfortable as I did not want them to learn at my expense. Geothermal was the only system I wanted to install because of the risk of higher fuel oil and propane fuel prices, and the geothermal system actually gets a 30% federal tax credit (IRS towards your tax liability and can be carried to future years if necessary) with no cap on the dollar value. This system actually was quoted to me for less than the home builder quoted me for a regular LP fired heating system (without the air conditioning benefit of the geothermal) The work has been done with care to details. I have confidence in the installation, though it will not be until we get thru a winter season that we can give an updated report on it."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/nh/merrimack/bill-wenzel-heating-and-air-conditioning-reviews-2199162.htm"},"position":7}]}

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts
No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.
Ultimately, a work warranty is only as reliable as the contractor you’ve hired. That’s why trust and reputation are such important factors, in addition to having a solid contract and confirming appropriate licensing, insurance, and bonding. When looking for a contractor, it’s a good idea to read online reviews and ratings to see what kind of experience past customers have had. Issues with your contractor can make for an unsatisfying renovation process, but a reliable contractor can make the process go as smoothly as possible.
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.
Remodeling a house is often less expensive than building a new house. You can expect to pay an average of $100 per square foot when you are remodeling. The cost to build a house averages about $150per square foot. When remodeling, though, some rooms cost more than $100 per square foot and some cost less. Use a home renovation cost estimator to accurately estimate your remodeling costs.
On average, the cost of a home builder is about $150 per square foot, but that price can range from around $100 to $400 per square foot or more. That puts the typical price range of a standard, 2,000-square-foot house between $200,000 and $800,000. Some factors that affect the price of hiring a home builder include the following:
Location of your home and the living cost in the area
Type of foundation and framing you choose
Quality of the building materials
Footprint and layout of the house
Number of stories
Builder’s experience
