"The toilet needed to be replaced. I was told that I would only get the builder standard grade toilet even though I was signed up with the highest plan. The plumber was replaced my toilet with something that was definitely builder grade and not even close to what I had. I called CHOICE and they told me that it should have been replaced with something comparable to what I had. Twice they told me they were going to have my claim looked at and I have not received a call about it or any new information. The new toilet is wrong in size and specs and doesn't fit well where it is in the bathroom."
"The project was organized from where I live in California. All aspects of the job were completed on schedule and according to the contract. I highly recommend Mid-Valley Building and Jim Jones. "
"The garage door opener needed a part that took almost a month to arrive. Fridge and dishwasher also got few weeks before they were actually repaired."

"The company made an appointment to perform interior painting on July 3rd. We were repainting the entire home and hired a professional to do the area over the stairs and the vaulted master bedroom. The day before the scheduled appointment I was contacted and told they would be unable to keep the appointment and needed to reschedule for the following week. I explained that the house would no longer be empty after July 4th and the painting needed to be completed prior to the move in. He committed to send a painter. The painter arrived at noon the day of the appointment. When I checked on the painter a couple of hours later he had rolled the ceiling and walls but had not done the cut in where the ceiling met the wall. The painter told me that he "hates to paint". I was surprised considering he was a painter and he responded, "I am not a painter. I would rather build decks, hang drywall or pretty much anything other than paint". I was shocked that the company didn't send a painter. The next time I checked on him, he was working on cutting in the area where the wall meets the ceiling. It looked horrible. The areas I painted looked 100 times better than what he had done. At that point, I sent him home and contacted the company to complain. To their credit, the company sent a real painter to the house after the move in. That painter re-painted the bedroom and fixed the problems. In the end, the master bedroom looks great. The owner told me that they fired the guy they sent the first time, but from the reviews that other people had the same guy sent to their house. I respect that they fixed the problem but I would not use this company again. "
"They did a real good job. They were real professional. We can now open the garage door from the inside of the house and now it is so smooth that we have to check to see if we hit the button to open it or close it. Before we used to know when it was opening or closing because it used to make a noise. It helps when you move to a city where you are new. "
Yes, you can use a storage shed several ways, including as a chicken coop, but you'll need to make some modifications. You will have to add a chicken door, roosts, ventilation near the roof, mesh on the windows, and insulation if you live in a colder climate. Additionally, you’ll want to ensure that the shed is predator-proof so no other animals can harm your chickens. You should also add a run and nest boxes to your shed.
The best lumber for building will be the strongest and most eco-friendly wood your budget allows. That being said, Douglas fir, pine, oak, and maple are all common building materials. Contractors will use a strong, inexpensive wood to frame a house or other structure and finer woods like mahogany for detail work.
If you can’t repair and repurpose your shed, it might be possible to sell it, donate it, or salvage parts rather than them just ending up in a landfill. Professional junk removal services will advise you on what can and will be recycled. You may also want to keep some parts to upcycle them for other projects around your home. Turning planks from your memory-filled wooden shed into a coffee table or bed headboard is good for the environment and the soul.
The lifespan of a barn is typically 40 to 60 years, but with skillful construction and proper maintenance, it can last up to 100 years. The actual lifespan depends on several factors, including the barn type, materials, usage, and climate. For example, the posts of a pole barn should last 50 years or longer, but if the structure is used for livestock in a rainy climate, it may rot within the first decade. Custom designs with high-end materials tend to last the longest. To get the best estimate for your barn's lifespan, you should consider its material type and intended use.
You can use a variety of wood to build a barn door, but the most common options include 1-by boards and 2-by boards for the backing and the decorative boards on the front of the door. Softwoods like pine will save you some money and should hold up well, while hardwoods like maple and oak will stand up to more wear and tear. You could also build the backer out of plywood to minimize the cuts you need to make. Whatever you decide on, make sure the width of the wood is compatible with the mounting brackets you buy.
