I met all of the deadlines but there were still problems -- information on the exchange was wrong (e.g. it said there were no high deductible HMOs eligible for HSAs when in fact there were several), I received bills for two other people, access to the CDPHP web site was unavailable for about two months, automatic payments were not available. I took it in stride as the Healthcare Exchange was new and buggy. Plus CDPHP was very open about the problems whenever I contacted them. In terms of price you will pay more for CDPHP -- both Empire Blue Cross and MVP had less expensive plans for my area. I probably could have saved a few hundred dollars per year with comparable plans from either Empire or MVP but due to my professional experience with CDPHP I decided to stick with them. Plus I knew just about every provider in the Capital Region accepts CDPHP. A few months after getting coverage I developed a rather serious medical problem that required diagnostic work-up and surgery. I knew when I chose my coverage I would have some costs I would have to pay since I had a high deductible HMO. I have found CDPHP great to work with. I stayed within their preferred network for my radiology studies (and you do have a lot of choices) and a PET scan was paid in full (except the radiologist charge, which is normal). My bills have been easy to understand and paid in a timely fashion without any problems. When I have called CDPHP to ask questions they have answered my questions in a timely fashion. What you learn with insurance is it is the service and coverage that you get when it is needed that counts. CDPHP is a bit more expensive but when you need it they deliver.

It took about 3 weeks for the fence to arrive at oneonta Fence, having been ordered from another company. When the work was to be started, Steve showed up with a small crew, and they spent the entire day at my house. The crew was equally polite. They installed the fence exactly as I had wanted it. The gate was installed shortly thereafter. I am very pleased with the quality of the new cedar fence and the workmanship that went into installing it. Steve Hiscox is a gentleman and very honest. His crew is the same. I would hire them again in a heartbeat. Incidentally, his crew left before I could pay Steve the balance of what I owed. I was expecting a call from him, to see when I would send the check. After two days, I sent Steve an e-mail, telling him I had put a check in the mail to him. The whole experience renewed my faith in contractors! It was effortless, from start to finish.

This company called us. II asked them to provide an estimate of the job. I did NOT authorize the job. When noone was home they came and did the job. The results are unaaceptable. The lower roof is covered with leaves and 2 downstpouts have a pile of leaves and sticks covering the top to...
Excellent service - one of the techs was sick and owner came did the cleaning and inspection himself, then would not charge full price because it wasn't dirty enough - everything was explained and done very professionally-highly endorse this company!

FAQs for stair service projects in Stamford, NY
The cost to finish a basement is $18,400 for the average homeowner. However, this cost could be as little as $2,800 or as much as $34,500, depending on the basement size and the materials needed. If your basement is already outfitted with electrical and plumbing, expect the cost to fall on the lower end.
For example, the drywall cost for this project averages around $1,750, but other features, like hiring a plumber, cost between $45 and $200 per hour.
The cost of home remodeling is $50,000 for the average homeowner. However, this cost can range anywhere from $3,000 for a small projectto $170,000 for a whole home remodel. Factors like project size, location, and room type all affect your overall cost. For example, bedroom remodeling costs are one of the least expensive projects, costing about $1,500 to $5,500 per bedroom. However, a kitchen remodel has a significant cost range, totaling anywhere from $14,500 to over $70,000.
The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing.
If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.
Yes, most states require home remodeling contractors to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed home remodeling contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms.
Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.
Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.
