Hello, my name is Nate and I’ve decided to put my handyman skills to work for you! I’m good with woodworking, electric, plumbing and more. Let me know how I can help you!
"Lance and his team at Real Deal Remodeling are an A+ team. I’ve used them for numerous home repairs like repairing structural issues on my 100+ year old home to fixing plumbing issues that other companies said were not repairable without major demo work. Lance does his best to give you an accurate quote and stick to it as closely as possible. They are not the cheapest in town but they are fair and upfront with everything they finds."
"Everything went very well. We sent Michael pictures of what needed to be done. He gave us a quote. We later asked him to come onsite to firm up the quote, which he did, and the price was the same. He stated he was booked some time out, but said he sometimes has cancellations. He contacted us and stated he indeed had a cancellation, so was able to start the next day. He started the work, even without a deposit, since it was short notice, and we were still away, out of town. We were trying to decide what to do for railing, and had captured quotes from supply companies for replacement aluminum or steel materials, but they seemed high. We asked Michael for his thoughts. He checked a hardware store for us, sent us pictures, and then sent us the part number/SKU's from the store. We paid the store directly, and he picked up the materials. The work is almost done, but all has gone great thus far, and we see no reason why it won't complete with great success."
"The project went incredibly well. The focus was a quality, appropriate renovation/addition on a 1930's federal house in Ann Arbor. An architect was hired to design an appropriate renewal and replacement inside and out. It was important that the builder could handle the scale and detail. We couldn't be happier with the results. In retrospect I am sure that there is no way that we could have renovated to this standard at this cost with any other builder. Pete was the perfect choice for our project. I am veryspecific about the level of quality and detail that I expect and Pete meets my requirements every time. He does it with a cheerful problem solving attitude that is uncommon in the building trades. Pete, and any of his co-workers, are a pleasure to have around the house. He is dependable and extremely honest. I know that Pete bids large jobs and small jobs. That makes him somewhat unique as a contractor. I am sure he brings the same level of workmanship to jobs much smaller than ours. I am equally sure he can manage a big project when contracted to do so. My main take away is that high quality work at fair prices is rare in the construction field. Pete’s company occupies a hard to find niche."
"We initially thought that there was a leak in the line for which a quote was provided. Once the line was uncovered to repair the leak it was discovered that the entire line (lead pipe which had been installed when the house was built in 1967) was corroded and would probably continue to spring leaks even after the first was repaired. The contractor recommended that the entire line be replaced although he was more than willing to repair only the leak for the initial estimate of $195. I agreed with his recommendation. The repair was expected to take several days so the contractor ran a temporary supply line to the house so that we would not be without water. We were totally satisfied with the work that was completed and that the employees were professional and courteous. "
"These guys were great!! We had a delivery of a massive new front, all in one piece, very heavy. They handled it of total care and stored it in our garage with all the very long trim pieces for installation next day. Kind of an unusual item to deliver so was concerned about the glass, scratching, damage. Again, 5-star handling and very pleased!!"
"Loay Jabbar provided the information I needed quickly and clearly. I immediately signed up for full coverages for our two homes because of the discounts offered and because of the quality of service that Loay is saying and promising Choice Home Warranty provides to its customers. I have bad experiences with other home warranty companies so I am hoping I found the best company that would deliver the best service."
Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts
Whether it is better to buy or build a chicken coop depends on your priorities, primarily cost versus time and effort. Building your own chicken coop can be significantly more budget-friendly, often costing about half as much as buying a pre-made one. If you have the time and skills, building a coop from scratch is the most economical option. However, if your time or skills are limited, buying a kit and hiring a handyperson to assemble it can be more cost-effective than hiring a carpenter to build a custom coop from scratch. If you want a perfectly constructed coop without sacrificing your own time and energy, buying one is the easiest choice.
The foundation for a pole barn should be at least 36 inches thick to ensure that the piers won’t shift from frost heave.
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.
Your chicken coop needs to be off the ground to protect your chickens and avoid problems brought on by flooding, mud, and moisture. If you can't locate a high area to build the coop, you should build an elevated coop to ensure it stays dry.
It is almost always more affordable to buy an existing home than to build a new one. Building a home involves numerous costs, including labor, permits, inspections, utility hookups, and brand-new materials, finishes, and appliances. Additionally, new construction loans can have higher interest rates than traditional mortgages, and property taxes on new homes are often higher, increasing long-term costs. An exception is a DIY house build, which can be cheaper than buying an existing home if you do the labor yourself. While building is generally more expensive, a new custom home offers complete control over the layout and design. Furthermore, new construction is typically worth more than a comparable pre-owned home and may provide a better return on investment if sold quickly.
