"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."

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."

"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"

If you or your mortgage lender think your land survey needs to be more accurate, double-check the survey report and get at least a second opinion from the original surveyor and an inspector, if possible. Although it’s unlikely, even reputable surveying companies can make mistakes. An inaccurate survey can cause problems down the road in the case of any property line disputes, so it’s best to resolve any inaccuracies as quickly as possible.
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.
Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.
To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.
Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

Wells are also environmentally friendly. You don’t need to worry about drinking water treated with chemicals. Talk to at least three well pump contractors in your area. They’ll be able to tell you more about your options, give you different quotes, and discuss the biggest concerns.
