Customers say: Quick response

"We hired Dixie Home Improvement for kitchen cabinet refinishing & backsplash. We quickly added additional jobs including repair of front porch and siding around house for repairs needed due to water damage. The owner and crew have been nothing short of respectful and professional and conduct business with a high degree of integrity! They have earned our trust and loyalty with their exceptional workmanship! We have even added more work to their schedule with chimney repair, fireplace stone installation, door installations and bathroom remodels. We HIGHLY recommend Dixie! Communication is entirely transparent! We feel blessed to have come across them at a time when many other contractors disappointed us!"

"Their estimate was the best out of 3 contractors. They did a great job with attention to detail. 
They were very professional, unrushed and highly skilled.
It took about two full days of work.

"Fantastic coordination with the owner Marc - he was prompt in providing an estimate.  Over and above expections in his ability to adjust the schedule for my needs.  The crew was on time, courteous, highly skilled and they cleaned the job site after the work was complete.  When the bill came up it was at the agreed price.
I had other estimates and MI Electric was the best price, value and service.  Would hire these folks again for any sized project!!

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.
