"Our new front entrance steps and deck are fabulous! I’m so happy that I saw Anthony McCann’s truck while they were building entrance steps at another property in the neighborhood. Anthony and his team (Dino and Johnny) are expertly skilled as well as punctual, hard-working, and gracious. McCann Home Improvements has my highest recommendation and I look forward to working with them on future projects."
"Crews worked almost three full days with only short lunch breaks. Shed looks like brand new and repairs were a lot cheaper than having to demolish, add foundation and new shed. Garage door framing looks great with new recently installed garage doors. Crew let us know when they would arrive each day and were prompt and they did great job of cleaning up. Foreman, Mo, was excellent communicator. Very pleased and would highly recommend. Thank you to Doug and all the workers!"
"I donâ  t know where to begin to say how satisfied I am with A & J Contracting! I needed my basement renovated ASAP and Mr. Anthony met with me in a timely manner explaining in great detail the work he would perform and how pleased I would be! Let me tell you he did NOT disappoint because he and his partner Mark performed what I call a â  miracleâ  in renovating my basement and went above and beyond my expectations!!!! Iâ  ve shown many the before and after pictures of what I now can call my family room and the response each time was how â  beautifulâ  of a job Anthony did!! If you are in need a great contractor donâ  t look anywhere else but A & J Contractor and call Anthony NOW! My family still canâ  t believe what A & J Contractor did with that old and in bad shape basement!! Very professional and the many years of experience really was on display!! Thank you again Anthony and Mark for restoring our basement!! Iâ  ll definitely be utilizing them in the future and wonâ  t have to look elsewhere!!"

"The guys that work for JSF are amazing.They are very professional,knowledgeable and neat workers. We related well with each guy, we are actually going to miss them.Dont hesitate to call them !! I’d put them up against anybody."
"David did a great job on this project, very clear communication and it was obvious he cared about quality. I would gladly hire him again for a future project."
"Since we are looking in to buy in Ohio, Mark could not work with us due to not being licensed there. He was very helpful and spent several minutes on the phone answering questions and helping me understand a couple different unconventional loans. "
"It went quite well, considering the weather. The owner and his help had to work through rain, snow and especially mud. But they worked on and the end result was quite amazing. First, I couldn't believe how well built the deck was. I think it could withstand an earthquake. The steps and a landing are of the same high-quality workmanship. I am very pleased with the whole project and would not hesitate to use them again."
"AMC Construction is a GREAT company! Love the work they did, exceptional job and professionalism!! These guys know construction and I highly recommend them!!"
When you think about Arts and Crafts-style homes, you probably think of a Craftsman house or a bungalow-style Craftsman. Craftsman is one of the major styles developed during the Arts and Crafts movement, but it checks most boxes. Craftsman houses have low-pitched roofs, exposed rafters, open floor plans, and stunning wood finish.
The process involves initial consultation, concept development, detailed planning, regulatory approvals, and integration of contractor work for project execution.
You likely need to hire an architect for your new house design and build, unless you have the design skills and experience with building regulations and standards needed to get your plans approved. If you are able to meet the design requirements, you can hire a draftsperson to create the blueprints for the builders to follow.
You'll find Arts and Crafts homes across the country in varying styles. On the East Coast, bungalows and Tudor Revivals fill the Boston area through New Jersey. In the West, Mission-style homes incorporate terracotta shingles, white stucco siding, and rounded archways.
If your project is complex, it may make sense to hire an architect to draw plans. An architect might also be a good person to hire if you want to ensure your plans adhere to building codes and regulations.
