"MW Construction built a new home for us and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. They were very professional and did a superb job. MW was quick to return our phone calls and answer any questions that we had during the building process. I would highly recommend them."
"Our project was a 14' x 14' screened porch. We selected Scott SCS from other contractors based on the interview, his knowledge, understanding of the project, and communication skills. He improved our original design and made numerous suggestions during the construction process. He understood our vision of the porch and he delivered. From start to finish Scott and his work crew were always on time, polite, professional, and cleaned up the area before departing every day. I was on site watching and taking photos. So I can attest to the craftmanship and attention to detail of the crew. Every day I was informed of their plans and then I provided my thoughts, ideas, and concerns. We are extremely pleased with the finish porch and I would highly recommend SCS. They are a 10 in every category."
"Z, Came to my home in Wildwood Crest. He gave me a quote to remodel my laundry room. He was professional, efficient but most of all he gave us advice. He went above and beyond our expectations. The laundry room looks great. I had loose steps coming from my back deck to the yard. I ask Z if that was something he can do? He said, let me grab lunch and a couple tools to do the step and I’ll be back. He gave me a great price and the steps are perfect. Real good guy and very honest. Ray"
"Ac better homes llc -roberto reynaud,
Our house was built in 1926. We have lived in our home since 1946. It was remodeled over 50 years ago with new additions.
The interior had not changed since. As my parents have gotten older, as you can imagine i have had to do some construction, lighting, plumbing, doors and locks, and exterior roofing repairs within the past 6 months.
I found roberto through a family member he had done some beautiful work for which included painting from floor to ceiling, new flooring, fixtures etc. I am happy to say that roberto is a treasure. He is an honest and hard-working young man.
Roberto is dependable, reliable, and forthright regarding his value and pricing and necessity for the jobs that he does. To date Roberto and his team has: 1. rebuilt the stairs to my basement. 2. recovered my kitchen floor with new covering. 3. replaced lighting fixtures in my bathrooms, pantry and kitchen ceiling. 4. replaced locks for my external doors. 5. replaced a leaking"
"Joe and his subs did a great job for us. Price was fair, and he was either here, or could almost always be reached, when the work was going on. All the subs were excellent at their specialty and also nice guys that you wouldn't mind letting in your home. Both Joe and they were always sensitive to the fact that we had to live here while the work was going on, and tried to inconvenience us as little as possible. Joe worked with us with each change and/or additional work we requested, and the addition to the bedrooms and new master bath were just what we hoped for. The finished product is beautiful, and we would recommend Joe for any job."

Having had many experiences with contractors over the years, I give Pete’s company one of my highest ratings. My finished bathroom was way beyond my expectations - a beautiful job."

They handle it all; permits, plumbing, electrical, sheet rock and spackling, tiling, painting and clean-up. Definitely a contractor to include when getting quotes on a renovation project."

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.
You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.
