"I purchased an old house on the lake that was in need of much repair. I asked Scott to come in and give me a quote on the hardwood floors which were very old and worn. He told me he could make them look new. I was a bit skeptical. By the time these floors were done it looks like a brand new house. The old flooring looks so worm and inviting. The new floors flow so nice with the look of the refinished hardwood floors. The new kitchen and bathroom floors are vinyl and very easy to clean. We love our new floors and how we get brag about them to all our neighbors"
"Outstanding! Fair price; I shopped around. Clean, dust-free system really works. Marty and his crew removed a wall-to-wall carpet, disposed of it, then sanded and coated the floors, installed a shoe moulding, and even sanded my well-used cherry wood kitchen table top. All done within 3 consecutive mornings. Marty offered tips & pointers which made a disruptive process go very smoothly. Highly recommended."
"Josh did a great job installing luxury vinyl tile throughout our kitchen bathroom and hallway. He was a perfectionist. Taking whatever time was necessary to make each joint just right. Of course, he had all of the necessary saws, tools and special equipment needed to do an exceptionable job. Josh was knowledgeable about installing floors and came with previous experience. I highly recommend Josh and look forward to hiring him again, myself."
"When my husband and I moved into our home, we found out that carpet was covering hardwood flooring throughout the house. Vincent brought the hardwood back to life with sanding and refinishing on both the first and second floor. He was quick, efficient, and professional. We would highly recommend him to anyone needing their hardwood floors refinished."
"He does a good job. He is a people's person. He is a hard working man, He has put carpet in my house a few times and tile. He does a nice job all the time"
"The hardwood flooring repair and refinishing performed by Jason Leon was done for a reasonable price, and was completed on time - actually a couple of hours earlier than promised. We were quite pleased with the quality of the work done, and the level of professionalism exhibited. We were glad that we chose this contractor, and would reccomend him highly."
Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn’t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.
Permit requirements to clear land vary by municipality, so whether or not you need permits depends on where you live and what you’re removing from the land. Some building departments will require permits for any underground work or excavation, meaning grinding down tree stumps on your property would require permits. Others mandate individual permits for each tree you remove. You can contact your local building department or a land-clearing specialist near you to see if permits are necessary for your job.
This is fairly rare, but sometimes the local government or a group like a historical society will label a tree as a landmark, or historical item. These designations almost always come with a small, on-site plaque for identification, but you should also be able to look up protected trees in your area on a city website or similar list. If the tree in question is a landmark, call your local government and ask how to proceed before making any plans.
A land survey provides precise property boundaries, reveals legal encroachments, and identifies rights-of-way, minimizing disputes. Understanding the exact dimensions and features of the property aids in informed decision-making and safeguards the buyer's investment.
