Rick grew up in a family of hard working contractors, and has been learning the skills of the trade since a very young age. He brings to the table a high level of expertise that is often hard to come by, and will always take the time to get the job done right.

"Rick was very responsive at first and eager to get started on my bathroom remodel job for one of my apartments. He is commended for having to respond to quote request fast. I decided to give him a chance to do a good job before handing a bigger jobs for my other properties. Before the work started, I emphasized that the dust control and cleanup was very, very important to me. The job involved lots of demolition work inside the apartment - naturally, there will be lots of dust. The apartment is currently occupied and has lots of furniture, computers and audio equipment that I wanted to protect. I thought he and his workers were communicated this request. I even offered the use of dust control fan and Zip Wall to isolate the work area but he said he will be fine without them. Once the job started, I was away for one week to take care of my family. When I returned, I discovered that the door to the adjacent room was left open. That is my office with all the equipment and important papers. They left their construction material and equipment in this room. I was horrified that there are fine dust everywhere - on my printer, computer peripherals, furniture. I brought this issue up with Rick. Nothing happened. The worst part was that the job was declared done and I paid the service in full - They never returned to clean up and pickup the equipment. After almost a whole month, the supply and equipment is still there. I had to spend extra time cleaning up after their mess. Very unprofessional. Lessons learned. Do not pay the balance until all the cleaning is done and all the equipment removed. I expect the clean up and dust control to be a part of the job. I also repeatedly asked or professionally prepared invoices with vendor name and address, job details and the most important of all, the invoice number - all of these essential information is important to keep track of expenses for my projects. The SMS texts message and e-mail messages were not appropriate for this purpose. I explained to Rick that my CPA requires them many times. I even sent him a sample invoice and quote in Microsoft Word template - he never understood what I was asking. He is a nice guy, but not a good project manager or competent business person. The work was done, however, the work quality is fair to good - I had to go back and correct some sloppy work. Lacking attention to details and follow up bothered me. The biggest issues is the lack of clean up and keeping the worksite cleans so he and his crew gets an F. I do not think I will be hiring his company in my future projects."

"We recently hired Custom Construction Services LLC for an interior painting project in my home, including painting our kitchen island cabinets, and installing 2 doors and an attic vent. We couldn’t be more pleased with the results! From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. Derek took time to go over our plans, provided us with sound advice when needed, and sent estimates promptly. He was in constant communication throughout the whole process. Derek accommodated our last-minute requests, adjusted our quotes, and promptly addressed our questions or concerns over the phone. Derek’s team was incredibly professional and punctual, arriving exactly when they said they would. They took great care to protect my floors, ensuring that everything was covered and safe from any paint splatters. Their attention to detail was impeccable; every wall (including ceiling and trim in some rooms) and cabinet was painted with precision, leaving no streaks or missed spots. Clean-up was thorough, leaving my home spotless and the walls, especially our kitchen island cabinets, looking absolutely stunning. The final result exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for top-notch interior painting services, I highly recommend Custom Construction LLC. Their expertise, professionalism, and dedication to customer satisfaction truly set them apart. Thank you, Derek and team, for transforming my home with such beautiful results! We’re sure to hire them again for our next project."

• I am a homeowner's advocate when it comes to repair and renovation projects. • What I do is step into your project on your side and apply my two and a half decades of contracting experience to help you see what you don't see so you can get the project done for what it's actually worth. • All you need to do is book a free consultation using my calender link, send me any plans and specifications and on the call I'll let you know what you can expect to save on your project by working with me as your advisor. • Don't be like so many others who overpay for home improvement projects.

"Ed and his team went above and beyond in remodeling the outside of our house. We received a reasonable estimate, the work was done on time and turned out better than we expected. Ed is organized, he communicates about the schedule and asks questions about the details that arise during the project. There were no added costs without our consent so the estimate was accurate. I highly recommend them!"

"After 2 1/2 years of not being able to secure a contractor willing to excavate or property we found Joe who told us, "No problem when do you want to start?" After receiving Joes quote we asked if he could build us a wall also. Joe stuck with us even after we were satisfied with the excavation. He encouraged to order gravel late on a Friday to finish up the site."

Garages questions, answered by experts

You’ll want to use a sprayer to paint your garage door, especially if the door has panels and other details. A sprayer can get those hard-to-reach places much easier than cutting in with a brush or trying to roll the paint. Once you get comfortable using a sprayer, you’re more likely to get a smooth, professional-looking finish. However, a paint roller will also work if you’ve got a flat garage door or if you don’t have access to a sprayer.

It’s typically less expensive to buy a garage-building kit than to build a garage from scratch if you’re supplying all the labor. However, unless you are an experienced builder, you will still need to hire pros to install the foundation, concrete floor, and add electrical and plumbing to your garage kit. In that case, it’s worth the investment to build a garage through a local garage builder who can coordinate the hiring of other necessary pros.

Having a garage can increase the value of your home considerably, even if the garage isn't considered living space. Many people own cars and want a secure place to park their vehicles when they are home. 

If you decide to finish your garage and convert it into living space, you may affect your home's value. The livable space may increase your home's square footage, which can help its value. But, giving up the garage space may also negatively affect the sale price of your home.

Standard garage door sizes for single doors range from 8 feet wide by 7 feet tall to 9 feet wide by 7 feet tall. An oversized single garage door would be 10 feet wide by 7 feet wide. The standard size for double garage doors is 16 feet wide by 7 feet high. However, some custom double garage doors can be as wide as 20 feet.

If you enjoy tinkering with cars, woodworking, or exercising in your garage, then a garage heater may be worth it to you. If your garage is used mainly for storage, you may opt to skip installing a garage heater. If you live somewhere with favorable weather year-round, you can probably go without one as well. But for most homeowners, a garage heater is a good investment and makes the garage a more comfortable place to spend time.
