"Lilco was a great company to work with! They are easy to communicate with and answered all of my questions and concerns. They are reliable and trustworthy. My kitchen and bathroom came out better than I could have imagined. I couldn’t be happier and hope to be able to remodel my other bathroom in the near future."
"This company is wonderful, they were always on time. They did an amazing job designing and remodeling our bathroom. Very responsible and ethical. The work was superior with all the trades. I will definitely hire ASC for future projects. Highly recommend!"
"I would hire this company over and over again! Humberto, his son and their guys are amazing! Our bathroom and laundry room had gotten water damage due to a backed up sewer line. Humberto, his son, and their team replaced drywall, baseboards, primed and painted both rooms. They redid the laundry room floors, and the vanity in the bathroom. Everything looks amazing, and we have already discussed with them if they can redo the rest of downstairs, paint upstairs and my kitchen cabinets. They are VERY NEAT workers, always cleaning as they go. They’re reliable, trustworthy and you can tell they aren’t just in it for the money. Humberto is really compassionate."
"Did a great job. Made the exterior of my old kitchen look like new. Very nice and easy to work with too! I rarely leave reviews but he and his worker deserve praise!"
"Sam the Man did several remodels in my home. I had 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen ( with a wall that was removed) and the basement. Every room was brought down to the studs. Sam is very neat, clean and knew exactly what look I was trying to achieve. He even helped me pick out the kitchen cabinets. Sam goes above and beyond my expectations. 5 stars is just not enough."
"Steve and team did an amazing job. They replaced the fireplace flue and left no dust and were very careful around the house and the roof. Excellent work, happy customer. Thanks!!"
"From my personal home addition and remodel, to my multi-family units capex upgrades and remodel, YSN will always be my first choice after the first time I spoke to them. Knowledgeable, experienced, quick and clean. They exceeded All my expectations while the price was extremely competitive. The YSN team is a one call does it it all company, highly recommended."
"The original consultation was timely and thorough. Frank answered all my questions. The best part was his team. They are professional and polite. They cleaned up after themselves each day and showed great patience every time my pups barked at them. Our bathroom is showplace now. I will use Frank for all my remodeling needs."
"I had an issue with the first design I contracted for, I wasn't happy with it. However, when the workers arrived at my house, it took only 1 phone call to the project manager for them to pivot, go buy EXACTLY what I needed(they understood what I wanted, amazing) and install in three days what I have dreamed of for so long. Whoever trained them, thank GOD for them, From the receptionist, to the installers, to the salesmen, to the project manager and engineer they were all A JOY to work with on my first "dream home" remodel project. They were professional, polite and precise, explained everything they were doing in simple and understandable language and wouldn't move to the next step unless I was completely satisfied, before during and after the installation. They even gave my partner and I tips on how to maintain the product for everyday use. And the result looks and functions as promised. A much better than we expected."
"I am having a full master bath and kitchen remodel done with new layouts in both rooms and knocking out a wall. Evolution worked with me to quickly get a drawing done of the new layouts so that the contractor could get started on the project. They made sure to include me in the process so that the design would be done exactly as my wife and I envisioned. They communicated effectively throughout the process and were always courteous and professional. I recommend them to anyone with drafting needs."
You don’t have to commit to a complete home renovation to age in place comfortably—those can get pricey. Instead, focus on a few impactful changes. Consider adding a stair lift or installing ramps to eliminate barriers. Upgrading to non-slip flooring can prevent falls while adding brighter lighting can improve visibility throughout your home. These thoughtful updates can make your home much easier to navigate and enhance your comfort and safety without the stress and cost of a complete overhaul.
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.
No, it’s not legal for unlicensed individuals to conduct structural calculations for buildings or building repairs. Not only do licensing requirements prevent DIYers from tackling this project, but mistakes can also be extremely dangerous and put your property and anyone inside or near it at risk of severe injury or even death. You should always hire a licensed and certified local structural engineer to make structural calculations.
Make sure you’re getting the right size to meet your space needs, including enough space both side to side and vertically to accommodate your RV’s features and allow you to safely move it in and out of the garage.
If you’re building an attached and enclosed garage for your RV, you’ll also want to give some thought to whether you’d like to add workspace, water or electricity, or additional storage. If so, you’ll need a garage with larger dimensions.
You can draw your own house plans using three-dimensional modeling software, but in most cases, you’ll need an architect to draw up the final plans. Architects understand local building regulations and requirements, so their plans will be necessary for getting permits approved, and they’ll also ensure your home is structurally sound. DIY house plans can be a good place to start to help visualize your project, but you should always defer to a professional before trying to proceed with the project.
