595 William was very knowledgeable of the work to be done and thoroughly explained the process and timing. Pricing was reasonable and quality of work was excellent. At completion my deck looks brand new and the stair balusters are better supported now than when installed by original builder.
The guys from Mona Helal were able to fix the damage to the 2nd floor of the apartment building I own. They were quick to react when they saw the extent of the damage (starting only 1 week after looking at the damage) and now it looks like brand new. Thank you guys so much!

"I can’t say nice enough things about the process of working with Martin. We decided to finish our basement, including a full bathroom, while I was pregnant and wanted the job wrapped up before the baby came, which gave a very hard deadline. Not only was Martin able to work with us contacting him two months out on this project, he was so responsive during the process, gave us great ideas, and kept us well-informed on everything that was happening with the project. From start to finish, we always felt that Martin was knowledgeable about what he was doing and didn’t seem bothered when we had last minute changes. The entire team was so clean, which gave me comfort given that I was pregnant at the time, and they were able to complete everything before the baby came. If I had more basements, I would definitely call Martin!"

The project took a little longer than expected but our house was built in the 1900's so it took a little more TLC than most. We were happy with the end results."

The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
Knowing if you need an architect for your project can be tricky, especially if you've never worked with one before. In general, small remodeling projects like replacing fixtures typically don't require the expertise of an architect. However, larger projects, like moving walls or adding an addition to your home, should include an architect to ensure the project is structurally sound.
The cost to build a detached garage for two cars costs about $26,400 on average. Prices range from $19,200 to $33,600, depending on your location, the garage size, height, materials, and site prep required. Additional cost factors include any plumbing, electrical wiring, and insulation. If you need to build a concrete foundation for a new detached garage, you can expect to pay $1,000 to $8,600 for this essential addition.
