518 Contracting is a locally owned business that guarantee's quality work at reasonable prices. We personally take part in all aspects of the construction process. We take pride in our work and dont sub-contract, which allows us to keep our overhead low, in turn passing that savings on to you the customer. We are currently offering a 10% Fall special on all roofing services. We also offer a 5% discout to any serior citizens or armed services veterans.

"They came out and did the job quickly. The roof looks good. Only problem was the roof leaked in the valley at the first snow melt. After numerous calls to Wade the crew (not Wade) came out to look at it. Said the cause was leaking from the siding. Tried to explain that there was not snow build up when I called, Took them so long to respond that it had snowed twice since I called. After numerous calls and several visits the crew foreman (not Wade) came out and re-installed the flashing in the valley (exactly the problem I said). The roof has not leaked since. (2 years now) I understand that roofs can be tricky in the northeast, but Wade's lack of responsiveness and unwillingness to listen (sometimes the customer knows what they are talking about) is the reason I would not recommend this company. In addition I still have not received the warranty that I was supposed to get two years ago,"

Small but mighty company, two employees with owner on every job site, excellent and dependable sub contractors.

"Pantalone Construction removed my old front walk and installed a new one in a very professional and timely manner. Mario and his son are true craftsmen and did a beautiful job. I have been in the tile and stone business for almost 40 years (now retired) and would highly recommend them."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

How long it takes to build an in-law suite will vary by type. The time it takes to build an addition will typically be less than for completely new construction. Expect to spend about two months if you convert a basement, attic, or other existing room in your home. New structures can take up to five months, plus up to two months to receive the required permits.

Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand. 

While a romantic getaway in a vacation treehouse may sound appealing, building one to live in year-round comes with more challenges. However, a growing number of people are adopting this small-scale living approach to appreciate an off-the-grid, private lifestyle. It allows you to feel closer to nature in a sustainable, customizable, minimalist, and eco-friendly way.

The construction stage, which includes pouring the foundation, framing the structure or building the walls if you choose a concrete house, and installing doors, windows, a roof, siding, drywall, and flooring, will almost always take the longest. The planning phase can take just as long if you’re building a custom home, but the finishing process, which includes painting, installing trim, and finishing the interior, will rarely take longer than the previous two phases.

A 2,000-square-foot modular home costs an average of {AvgCost}, and most homeowners pay between {AvgRangeMinCost} and {AvgRangeMaxCost}, depending on the customization options you choose and the quality of materials.
