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!"

"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

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.
