"Eddie was great to work with! We had a limited time frame to adhere to town inspections and Eddie and his team knew exactly what we needed and quickly got the job done. The results were great and even the inspector acknowledged the impressive repair. They were able to put a knocked out garage wall back on the foundation and repair the interior dry wall.
I would recommend this company for any professional contract work due to their reasonable price, ease to work with and quality of work."
"We had our entire house, 3 car garage and smaller shed completely re-sided and painted through Handymack. The work was fast, cost effective, and beautiful. Everyone was extremely professional and worked with us with every request we had. Judy, Mack wife, was amazing to work with. She was so sweet and did not hesitate to call if they had questions about a paint color, light fixture or our experience. They also tore down our previous front porch and built a new one. It is absolutely beautiful and exactly what we wanted. I will 100% hire this company again for the re-modeling of the interior of our home. Thank you Handy Mack"
"Ben was 1 of 4 guys that i interviewed to rebuild my 20 year old deck. He took his time explaining what he could do for me. He gave me ideas and choices. He provided me with different options . Ben and his team removed my existing deck boards, railings, and stairs. They put on composite deck boards, railings , and staircases. My yard was kept clean. Ben was very communicative throughout the project. The 665 sq. Foot deck was completed in 5 days. I am recommending Dynamic Exteriors LLC To all my friends and neighbors! Check out my before and after photos."

"Luis was fantastic throughout the whole process. From the appointment for an estimate, through providing his license and insurance information and execution of the project, he was always on time, very responsive and communicated the progress of work daily. He was very detailed, always extremely courteous and pleasant to work with. All his work was impeccable, he was able to provide advice when needed and was creative in addressing unforeseen issues (structural problems with the project site). I would definitely hire him for future projects and recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and dependable contractor."

It may be tempting to DIY the construction of a swing set to save money, but we don’t recommend it. Since children will use the swing set, the entire system must be solid and safe, meaning the cost savings aren’t worth potentially endangering them. Plus, most DIYers will have to build their swing sets out of wood, which won’t last as long as metal or vinyl and introduces the risk of splinters. Instead, hire a local playground equipment installer to ensure the swing set is built safely and efficiently, setting up your kids for fun for years to come.
Skid foundations, deck block foundations, and concrete block foundations are the most affordable shed foundation options. Of these, we recommend deck blocks. Deck blocks are easy to install and level, and they raise your shed up off the ground to prevent rotting from exposure to water and moisture. Keep in mind that deck blocks won’t resist soil movement or frost heave, so they’re not ideal in areas with expansive soil or a deep frost line.
A steel frame costs 10% to 20% more than a wood frame. Wood is a much easier material to work with, more accessible, and generally more affordable than steel—plus, you need specialized tools to work with steel.
Common pitfalls include underestimating the cost of site preparation, overlooking permit and utility fees, and not setting aside funds for unexpected changes. Change orders during construction can disrupt your budget. It’s best to plan a detailed budget, obtain multiple quotes, and include a 10% to 15% contingency fund for unexpected expenses.
Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.
