"Rick and his crew were just what I was looking for. I had questions about replacing my home roof with metal and Rick answered them all along with a few suggestions that I hadn't thought of. He came to my home on the day the supplies were being delivered to be sure everything was correct and direct the driver where to put them. The workers were reliable, (at the work site at 6am everyday), friendly, and most importantly skillful. I love my new roof and have been getting calls and comments from neighbors and friends who drive by. I would surely recommend RMS Contractors to anyone looking for a new roof!"
"I was recently widowed and my late husband did all work around our home. I needed help, I contacted Handyman Matters, South. The garage ceiling was a difficult job due to overhead electrical wires needing dropped and reconnected, cable and garage door opener mount and rails to work around. The men were punctual, courteous, and knowledgeable. The jobs were completed in a timely, professional manner and the work area swept clean. I will definitely hire this company again."
"Had a rotting 20 foot support beam under our deck. Jeremiah came up with a plan to replace the beam and improve the structural integrity of the deck. Complex operation since there is a heavy pergola on top of the deck but he was able to complete it in one day. Super happy with the results."
"The owners (Chris and Cal) did an excellent job on our remodeled project. They were personally involved with the project and worked directly with us during the entire planning and implementation of the work. They were true craftsmen. We wanted a contractor who could do the entire project and C&C fit the bill. They performed the drywall, flooring, windows, painting, electrical, and structural part of the job. We would highly recommend them ."
"I had been looking for someone to build a steps/ramp & additional deck on to our pool for a very long time & I finally found the right man for job - Rob with Cox home improvement. Rob was very professional, detailed, & friendly. Everything thing he said on cost, structure, & time frame he kept his word on! I told Rob what my budget was & he stayed within that budget & never tried to raise any cost on us, in fact, he saved us money!! I would recommend ANYONE to Rob & will definitely be calling him again for future projects!!"
"This was my third time working with this contractor and each project was a pleasurable experience! As was the case with the other two, they started this project on time and finished on time! All the work was done according to strict Mount Lebanon code. They made suggestions based upon their experience i.e we wanted a six foot high shadow box fence but while Mount Lebanon code allows for a six foot high privacy fence of just about any style, they do not allow, by code, a six foot high shadowbox fence. Steve Hilpert proceeded to build us a 4 foot high shadowbox fence (the maximum height allowed by code) with a custom built 2 foot high trellis section which Mount Lebanon subsequently approved. The fence looks beautiful! I was nervous about cutting a big hole in the wall of our addition to install the sliding glass door. Now the door looks like it has been there all along! It came out PERFECTLY! The deck is also beautiful and solid as a rock! We had an issue with the location of our two central air conditioning units off the back of the house. The other contractors (which I found here on Angie's List as well) said they would just build over these units. Not knowing anything about central air conditioning this seemed reasonable to me. Steve was the ONLY contractor who told me that you absolutely CAN NOT block the air flow above the units! Not only that, he was honest enough to tell me that moving the units should be done by a qualified HVAC contractor. Now that is a contractor you can trust! All work was completed on time and within budget. The same crew arrived early each day and were polite and professional. The job site was spotless at the end of each day! If you are looking for a trustworthy, professional contractor, you can not go wrong with SC Hilpert!!!"
"Phillip was very responsive and helpful. Thoughtfully problem solved some soil erosion issues and build a beautiful, solid, and functional fence. When he didn't know something, he was willing to say so & then would go investigate possible answers."
"we have an attached solarium that has been a cooling and heating challenge in spite of being zoned into our home air and heat since construction. Jim responded quickly to our inquiry and suggested a separate cooling/heating unit rather than just adding an automatic roof ventilation fan as suggested by the original builder of the solarium. Jim felt it could be done as a wall unit and not for too much more than the other company wanted to complete a roof ventilation unit, and Jim's suggestion would not risk the roof integrity of the solarium. He had the unit framed, installed, and sheeted to match the solarium all within a day. And, he stayed under the maximum estimate. He also helped arrange an excellent electrician, Rich O'Shea, who installed a dedicated 220 line for the unit. This was an excellent experience- professionalism and integrity all the way! "
"This is truly an A+ company for concrete repair and we had an excellent experience from start to finish for two jobs. Patty is very professional in handling the calls to schedule appointments and answered all of my questions. Gary was very direct and honest when he looked at the problems and recommended repairs. We also appreciate that he recommended that we hire a structural engineer for some problems with the house. We had 2 contracts that were completed by Joe and his team. They did a great job sealing some significant cracks in the garage floor and then sealing the entire garage floor. It looks like new. Joe is very personable and explains the repair process at every step. We highly recommend A Plus!"
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.
Technically, most states allow tiny homes, but it depends on the definition of tiny and whether the structure is permanent. Zoning laws regarding home size and construction are significant factors. For instance, a tiny home may be legal as a recreational vehicle in most areas, but you may only install it on a property if it complies with building and zoning codes.
Yes, barndominiums are designed to withstand strong weather and severe storms if they are built properly by trained professionals. Most barndominiums are made up of a steel structure that can protect a building from winds of up to 150 miles per hour and resist a variety of weather conditions without a major risk of structural damage to the exterior, foundation, or frame.
Complex plumbing is tricky and expensive in an off-the-ground dwelling like this. By considering options like composting toilets, rainwater collection, and gray-water sinks, you save money and help the environment.
Yes, barn doors can be too heavy, although the limitation is usually imposed by the mounting hardware you buy and not your home’s framing, unless you’re building an unusually wide door. To keep the weight down, you can opt for 1-by material rather than 2-by material, and choose a softwood like pine rather than a hardwood like maple or oak. Check the weight limits on your mounting hardware, and always attach your door track to studs rather than to drywall anchors.
