"It was an excellent experience. Darryl Knight was very professional, very knowledgeable and skilled . He was also very easy to work with. If I had questions he answered them promptly. He was personable, and I felt at ease with him and his son at all times. I couldn’t have been more pleased with how my deck turned out. It is absolutely beautiful."
"Tim and Preston did an excellent job. We're very pleased with our deck. Tim was very helpful with his knowledge and advice. We will definitely be using him again for our next project."
"As a new homeowner of an older home in a Columbia historical district neighborhood, we wanted to find a smaller, quality builder/company to work a new carport design while manuevering the eaches of particularities with city requirements. Although time and process intensive, Anne and Kevin were always thorough and communicated clearly with us each step of the way. Kevin will always ensure the job is done to a high quality standard and with the right time, material, and people to complete the task at hand. I will not hesitate to work with this team again in the future."
"Professional results, couldn't ask for anything more. Arrived with everything needed to complete the job! Courteous, respectful and neat. Will hire again for other projects!!!"
"This was my first experience hiring a contractor and Mr. Sturgess's was great to work with. He was able to meet with me outside of my work hours to go over my plans. His crew was on time, friendly, and answered any questions I had. Mr. Sturgess rates were very reasonable, and he and his team are very honest and easy to work. Since they have finished converting my carport to the screened sun room, I asked if they could go ahead and finish some other projects for me. I can't wait until all of my projects are done."

"Polite contractor who responded to the request on Angi quickly; covered the hardware on the fence; cleaned up afterwards. I did see a tiny bit of overspray in one spot on my vinyl siding even though they used heavy paper to shield. It was a bit windy. However, a Mr Clean Magic Eraser took it right off with one wipe."
"Very trustworthy and understanding. Did not try to sell me on other services until I am satisfied with their work. They are building a relationship not just a one time service."
Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.
There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.
