"Contacted Juan and he called me right away and came out for an estimate. Gave a great price for replacing the entire ceiling, cut out holes for existing recessed lighting, and replaced the drywall where my skylights had been replaced. The crew was very professional, neat, and the finished product was excellent. Communication for times to perform the work was great and they stuck to the schedule."
"This is the 3rd time using Joe and his workers' services. They are great. Fair pricing and was willing to work with my budget. Excellent paint work, everything looks brand new. Very trustworthy. Will not hire anyone else to paint. "
"After seeing Merryfields on Angies list, I asked a few people about them. Everyone gave them rave reviews. I left an email and got a call the next day from Lew Merryfield, the owner. He came out personally to give us an estimate. He was punctual and very professional. He also was very knowledgable and had answers for my questions. We agreed on a price and set the date for the work to be done. He did want to be sure that someone would be there in case there were any questions. I took the day off to get th work done. Rain pushed the time back to the afternoon, but Lew Merryfield kept me informed. And I was able to get in part of a day at work. He and his crew arrived at 1 pm; and after telling his forman what was to be done, and walking him around the building, he helped the men out for a while and then had to leave. The men were very nice. I had a couple things to point out but there was no problem getting anything done. They were just as polite and nice as could be. And they cleaned everything up before they left. They were done just before 5. The foreman walked me around the house to make sure everything was the way I wanted it. And answered a few more questions. I would highly recommend them for any job. In this day finding workmen like Lew and his crew is rare. Thanks to you all for a job well done."
"Ron did a great job on this complete home refresh. It was nice to have a single point of contact for roofing, windows, siding, stucco, painting, and garage doors. Even though this project took several months to complete, Ron did a good job of keeping us informed."
"Montco Fence did a great job. The installers were very professional and did exceptional work. The office staff is terrible, they didn't bother to call when they needed to reschedule due to weather and whenever I called they wouldn't call back. But don't let the lousy office deter you, the installers and quality of the work were well worth the hassle. I had a minor issue with the gates and (once I spoke to the office) the installers returned within 24 hours and fixed the issue."
"John and his team did a great job. They showed up on time and worked long hours every day to get the project completed. When unplanned items came up, they were flexible and easy to work with. Highly recommend."
Whether you buy a prefabricated shed or build one depends on why you need it and where you stay. For instance, if a simple garden shed is what you’re after, it’ll be less expensive to buy one already built. But if you want a shed with windows, plumbing, and electric work, a custom-built unit might be more suited to your needs.
Barns and barndominiums are most commonly painted red, like barns depicted in movies and paintings. The practice of painting barns red dates back to America’s colonial days, when new farmers would borrow the European practice of mixing linseed oil with ferrous oxide to coat the barns in order to protect them from the elements, leaving the structures with a red color.
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.
While a romantic getaway in a vacation treehouse may sound appealing, building one to live in year-round comes with more challenges. However, a growing number of people are adopting this small-scale living approach to appreciate an off-the-grid, private lifestyle. It allows you to feel closer to nature in a sustainable, customizable, minimalist, and eco-friendly way.
Whether a prefab home is worth it or not will depend on your personal needs and preferences. Overall, prefab homes tend to cost less than traditional homes, although they also tend to have lower resale values. Another thing to consider is that prefab homes usually last 50 to 60 years or longer, while traditional homes last 50 to 100 years or more.
