"John Martin and his team have done great work for us. They have done several projects for us ( Shadow Box fence for our backyard, Extension wall for our staircase, capped the under side of our front porch/deck, and a few other things. John always answers his calls or returns messages asap and their work is top notch. I would recommend them to anyone looking for General/Full Home Building to give them a call."
"Once I sent her all the measurements, it took her a little while to get the options back to me. Overall, they're good designs. However, they're very simplistic and give general ideas for space planning. I was hoping to have a better idea for sizes of furniture for the space and some variations on staging. Jill was very responsive when I did have a question. I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a virtual design done. If we lived in similar cities, I'd probably use her again for help with additional designs. "
"I feel extremely fortunate to have found Vicki through Angie's List ! She is an extremely talented person who is very easy to deal with. She has a breath of knowledge that allows her to accommodate my tastes, but also ensure that the overall design is in sync with the design and location of my home. She has a very diplomatic way of suggesting when I'm going astray with my choices and in every case where she has told me "Trust Me" I have been delighted ! She is very aggressive in helping me find the best pricing and often times will work with the vendors directly hence saving me the time. She also has excellent local contacts. Everyone I've worked with through Vicki has been timely, professional, and highly competent. My project is far from complete. I intend to continue to use Vicki and her expert advice until the end !!!!"

"I had John come out and give me a estimate for a new roof on our home. He was 1 of 7 companies I had come out to my home and give estimates. Out of all of them he showed up 15 minutes early unlike a few that showed up late and did not even bother to call to let me know. I also had given them all the same paper with instructions on how we wanted our estimates give to us and how to break them down for us to see where we were going to be spending our money, and Mid-Valley was the only company to do this for us. john looked at our roof and took measurements and even took time to point out somethings on my front porch that we needed to fix when we fixed the roof over it. He took time to tell me about the products they used and even let me know that if we had any questions to call. I did tell him that my grandparents were going to be paying for this and would be here during the roofing time. He told me to let them know if they had any questions they may call him, and he would even come back out to talk to them if they would like once they got here. I also wanted to make sure that this roof could be put on during a time frame that was only 2 weeks away from the time he came out for my estimate and John managed to be able to fit us in between jobs and our Oregon weather. Once we deiced to go with Mid-Valley my grandfather took over and contacted John to set up a time to meet with him and go over everything. John came all the way back out to my home and did a walk through with my grandfather and explained to him everything that needed to be done. My grandparents were really impressed my him and felt he was really a great choice we made. They agreed that 1 week after meeting and exactly 2 weeks after he showed up to do our estimate work would start and would take 2 days max. The morning of the job start he showed up wit a van of guys already to work which was great to have a van and a truck instead of lots of trucks up and down our street making neighbors made. It made parking a lot easier since we also had family from out of state and out of town here at the same time. They all greeted us and went right up on the roof while John talked to us for a few moments before heading up to work on our roof to. It is nice to see the head guy working on the job right along with his crew. With in a few hours they had the whole back of my roof off and fixed the dry rot we had and had the new one being started while a few of the guys started on the front part and my skylights. it was a very cloudy day and as the finished the back up and had been working on the front part of the house, skylights and front porch which was the worst part of things the sky let loose. I watched as they just keep working and after about 15 minutes of downpour it stopped and work went on full force. Yep they got wet but kept it going. Even though they had to deal with the rain and even our windy day we had that day they were great and kept working. A job that was estimated at 2 days only took 1 day from start to finish. After the roof was done John came and took time to walk around with us and make sure things were done right. We did find a few things that were not totally done and he made sure they got done and even sent a few guys back to put some metal strips on my back porch that was not included in the job, because they seen that it did not have them and some of the singles that the people who roofed that roof before put where weather stripping should have been blew off. He asked if we would like him to do that for us and we told him that would be great. Oh ya forgot to tell you that during the whole roofing project my grandfather was us there asking all kinds of questions and taking pictures of the whole thing from tear off to the finished job. He wanted to make sure that I could see everything since I can not get up there to see it cause I am afraid of heights and wanted to know everything about my old and new roof. I really think we made a great choice in Mid-Valley Building,LLC. I would recommend them to anyone who would be looking to have things done to their home. I would be happy to have them come back in the future and do more work for us and would most likely be the first company I would call on. Thank You John and his whole crew for your great job done From All of Us On Fairoaks in Falls City, Or. "
"We weren't that happy with the results. It was a few years ago, and the surface is still pretty much intact. He had to use a primer and deck paint, rather than stain, and the primer showed through in several places as bright white marks against the dark brown stain. He left the extra paint so we could refinish where we wanted. We don't want or expect any follow up at this time. I understand that the deck needed a lot more work than the worker expected. So, my experience may not be a fair representation of this particular contractor. "
Building permits serve a few purposes, the most important of which is to keep you and the people around you safe by ensuring your contractor does work safely and to code. Permits also help your municipality tax your property appropriately, as taxes are based on land improvements and the upgrades you make to your home. Finally, permits ensure your project won’t have a negative impact on the environment or your neighbors.
Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.
Buying a house is easier than building one from scratch. Buying an existing home is almost always faster, even if you need to make renovations once you move in. When you hire the right team to build a home, they will simplify the design and build phases so that there is little guesswork throughout the process, but building new construction will almost always take longer than buying an existing home.
The cost to draw house plans typically ranges from $800 to $2,700, with standard blueprints averaging around $1,800. For a custom home, the cost is higher, with blueprints often falling between $5,000 and $20,000, and potentially more for very complex designs. Several factors influence the total price, including the project's size, the number of rooms, the type of drawings required, and the architect's experience level. You may also need to pay a structural engineer to ensure building safety, particularly for custom homes.
Costs vary depending on project complexity and scope. Architects generally charge a percentage of the total budget or an hourly rate for their services.
