"We just had a wood floor installed in our dining room and the rest of the wood floors refinished, they look beautiful! Willamette Hardwood Floors was a wonderful company to work with. Terry and Joe showed up on time and finished the job a day early. The floors look even better than I had hoped! I would definitely hire Bill and his team again."
"Replaced deteriorated exterior siding where needed, installed several new double pane windows, replaced old carpeting with new hardwood floors, coordinated subcontractors for electrical repairs and interior house painting. All work was done professionally and to our satisfaction. Very impressed with Cody's quality management. He inspected all work by his team as well as the subcontractors to verify that the work was done correctly and to his satisfaction. I can highly recommend Valley Brothers Construction and will call them again if we need further contractor work done on our house."
"Yuri redid our kitchen floor in two days. He repaired the under-layment
and installed vinyl flooring. He was very efficient and the floor looks great!
I recommend Taran Construction highly."
"Amazing! Very friendly and knowledgeable. Wasn't sure about what kind of flooring was out there or what I wanted. Philip gave me a bunch of choices and explained the pros and cons. Installation went very well and now our floors look amazing! 10/10 would recommend!"

"Got an estimate very quickly, great response time, But then the communication was inconsistent and there was confusion about if/when to start. When I called to make sure they were coming, they did not knowfor sure whether they were to do the job, anyway, they came out when originally scheduled and the work accomplished was good (not necessarily excellent but very good). Their cleanup was virtually non existent, No drop cloth or anything else was used on the floor, they did paper over exposed beams and masked windows and doors. It took us 4 hours to clean up the floor however (unfinished concrete) and although it was unfinished, the floor still required being clean prior to finishing. Other thoughts: while they were here, I asked for estimates from the owner on other aspects of this project and the owner told me they did that type of work (concrete floor) but after asking twice, the owner never gave me an estimate. In essence while the work they did was acceptable-nearly excellent-with the communication issues and lack of cleanup I am not 100% sure whether I would hire again or not. The one additional thing in their favor is the lack of decent contractors in Salem.
"We have hired Jeremy for many projects over the past 15 years. These include general carpentry, replacing windows, siding, roofing, resurfacing and installing flooring, and painting interior and exterior. He’s replaced our water heater and worked in our crawl space. He does excellent quality work, is fast, efficient, completely trustworthy, friendly and is great with kids that might be hanging around. He is also great at finding the most economically sources for materials and offers very good advice. We trust him completely and plan to hire him for future repairs and projects."
"I bought this on a coupon and when I was ready to set up the appointment, it was difficult to get a call back. When I did reach them, because I had a coupon, they did not want to come out and see the job first to let me know what they could get done in the time I had purchased, and tell me how much paint I needed. I did describe to them over the phone and he estimated the paint need and it worked out pretty close. They arrived within 15 minutes of when they said they would come and were very nice and got right to work after a quick walk through. I am happy with the painting they did, but am still scraping some spatters up off my floor. I think these happened in the end, when they got in a hurry, so they could leave as soon as threir 8 hours were up. I would use them again because the painting quality is good. I think more time might have been taken had I been a full price paying customer, and this was a little disappointing. "
Depending on the type of land survey, the report will mark the boundaries of your property, the topographical changes of the landscape, as well as major natural and added structures to the plot. A more detailed survey, like an as-built survey, will note the measurements of the structures and landscape following major construction. A topographic survey will also help your contractor determine the cost of land development projects.
The small lines on the tape measure either indicate inches, fractions of an inch, or centimeters and millimeters. On the imperial unit side (aka the inches side), the longest lines indicate inches, followed by the next shortest lines that indicate a half-inch, and then the quarter, eighth, and sixteenth-inch. On the metric side, the lines break down meters, centimeters, and millimeters.
Measure from zero on a measuring tape by placing the metal hook right up against the edge of what you need to measure. You can also latch the hook onto an open edge—of, say, a table—to accurately measure as well. If you begin at the 1-inch mark, you'll need to subtract an inch from your total.
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.
You can’t build on undeveloped land without preparing it for construction, which involves running utilities to the site or accounting for private utilities like wells and septic systems and grading and compacting the soil for safe construction. Once you prepare the land, you can build on it as long as the project abides by local zoning regulations.
