"Mike and Daryl completely gutted my first floor kitchen, dinning and living rooms. Removed walls, added a load bearing beam, added new insulation, drywall and all new electrical. They performed all demo and remodeling themselves with very little outside help. They are very knowledgeable in all aspects of contracting. The quality of their craftsmanship was great. They were always here working and were easy to get in contact with when needed. They listened to what I wanted done and made it happen. I would recommend Quality Craft for any home improvement project."

"This contractor did a very good job for us. He was professional and very detail oriented and his work is awesome. We are very happy with the work that Sabino did at our house. We replaced every window in our house and it was completed in a timely fashion. We have work in the future that he will receive because we know his price will be fair and the work will be great again for us! Thanks Sabino, you are a hard worker."

Hello, I've noticed how difficult and frustrating it can be to hire someone to do a project, only to have them not follow it through to completion, or to just not show up at all, or to pass the blame of their mistakes to someone else. I started Wirth & Son Property Services because of all the incompetence and poor communication I've seen with service providers. I'll show up, do what I say I'm going to do, and keep communicating with you. Over the last several decades, I've completed a wide variety of home improvement projects, from footing to ridge, and everything in between. Whether you need something as small as a picture hung to something more complex, like a custom, site-built shed, I'll show up, competently complete the project, and communicate along the way. \n\nSome of the things I have experience in include: wasp removal, custom shed & chicken coops, curtain rod hanging, deck/porch repair, gutter cleaning, siding repair, drywall repair, assembly, fench repair, dryer vent cleaning

To begin with Randy was the only contractor to arrive on time for his initial estimate. Right from the start he was very thorough. He took the time to get to know my wife and I along with the type of job we wanted, what styles we were interested in and how we anticipated it all coming together. My wife is the home remodeling expert in the family in terms of decorating, styles, color and finish coordination. Randy clicked with her from the start and added several features that really enhanced the project.

When he presented his estimate a week later (and right on time), he described the process, documented all the work in the contract and guaranteed the price with no add-ons. (barring any major changes on our part of course). Four weeks later he came through. His crew and partner contractors arrived on time. All of them were very thorough, polite, clean and demonstrated an extraordinary attention to detail and craftsmanship. Randy was on site regularly to check on progress and constantly kept in touch with us to assure our satisfaction. He accommodated us with a few changes along the way and promptly took care of any problems that arose during construction and never added a penny to the price.

I wanted a real contractor that could and would coordinate the entire project including all the planning, labor scheduling and supply ordering. Randy delivered on all of those. Don't let our price scare you away from him. My wife has expensive taste and much of that cost is related to the high end materials and cabinetry we picked out. I think Randy's labor and supply costs were reasonable and given the superior craftsmanship and service that we received, it was money well spent. A kitchen can be a very emotional and inconvenient remodel project to undertake. I cannot imagine any contractor accommodating us as well as Randy.

We cannot say enough good things about the service we received and we most certainly recommend him for any home remodeling, construction or repair needs. In fact, we are already committed to using him for a bathroom remodel and all our future home improvements.

"I learned of JD Construction & Remodeling LLC from Angie’s List, and my experience with them was a very positive one. The work performed entailed replacing deteriorating decorative wood above two windows and two overhead garage doors with vinyl maintenance free decorative material on my home. The resulting work was of good quality and looked identical to how the house appeared when it was built over 30 years ago. I found the work crew to be knowledgeable, conscientious, reliable, professional and easy to communicate with. I would certainly recommend their services."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.

Framing is often the most expensive phase of building a house because it’s time-consuming and requires a lot of materials. It costs between $20,000 and $50,000 on average, depending on materials and labor costs. Before construction begins, it’s possible that purchasing land is the priciest step in the process. Some plots of land sell for $3,000, while others cost upwards of $150,000.

One of the best ways to negotiate with a homebuilder is to forgo price reductions. Instead, negotiate over upgrades and incentives, as many builders are more willing to go down that road than to decrease their own fee. Even if they were willing to take a cut, a reputable homebuilder often knows their worth, so a willingness to negotiate could be a red flag. Beyond that, builders are typically willing to negotiate closing costs instead of offering a discount on the base price.

Ranch and colonial-style homes are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average.

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.
