"We are exceedingly pleased with the exceptional work completed by S&M. The professionalism and quality of Matt and Heather's craftsmanship are truly commendable. Their pricing is equitable and transparent, and communication throughout the project was consistently clear. Matt demonstrated great care in safeguarding carpets and wood floors while maintaining cleanliness. Initially hired for one bathroom renovation, we were so impressed that we extended the contract to include another. Without hesitation, we will engage their services again in the future."
"Frank and his crew built a new storage unit for us. It was important that the new structure look as close as possible to the existing cabin we had adjacent to the build. We went back and forth several times with Frank on the design of the building, and he was always most helpful and patient to ensuring our needs were being met. The end result is a beautiful storage unit that is consistent with the look and feel of our property. While Frank's team is terrific, it should also be known that Frank provides consistent oversight on the project which is helpful to ensure all is moving to plan. We give Frank our highest recommendation."
"We are super pleased with recent home renovations Trey and his team at CMT Construction did for us. Ceiling repairs were done with extra care to identify and address the root cause for the leaks coming from an attic vent. Pressure tested and real-world rainstorms proved their quality work. A combination of new window sash kits for severely damaged windows and repairs to others helped save us money. Fresh paint, caulking and wood repairs have our 19 year old house looking new again. The crew was very professional, punctual and communicated very well with us. It took about 5 days to get everything done, and we were kind of sad when it was time for the guys to wrap things up. We found CMT through an Angi bid and are so glad we picked these guys for the best combo of value, quality and timing. We would recommend them to others and are planning more painting and remodeling jobs with CMT."
"Greg and his crew were very experienced and did a very nice job. From demo of the existing old deck to the construction of our new composite deck we were pleased with their work. I would highly recommend them."
"When no one else would accept the challenge of installing an exterior vent hood for my gas range, Greg stepped up. His team expertly worked through several challenges resulting in my dream hood and professional exhaust system. They also leveled my range, installed 4 new bathroom faucets and hung a very heavy mirror. Very happy with results and I am now thinking about my next projects. Thanks Greg and Scott!"
"Did a great job. Used good products, did not rush to complete. House looks better than when built 17 years ago. Were very professional from bid to finish. A little pricier than other bids but are licensed and insured for workers comp and liability. Would definitely hire again."
"Chris Price did a great job in a timely manner with a group of courteous, professional employees. I was pleased with the job and the clean-up afterwards. He is an honest young man with an excellent work ethic. I would recommend him to anyone needing roof work done and would use him again for any future roofing needs. "
"It went very well. Steve hired a subcontractor and they changed the date to get ahead of incoming rain. The subcontractor tore off 1 layer, re sheeted the roof with 30 grade felt paper, used a weather barrier all over the roof as extra protection against leaks, re installed the turbines, replaced the vent and roof louvers. And did a good job with the clean up. This is the third job I have used Steve for and have not been disappointed yet."
You have three options in terms of professionals who can draw up blueprints: a draftsperson, an architect, or a structural engineer. A draftsperson can sometimes draw up plans for new construction, but they more often work from approved plans for alterations or to provide 3D drawings. Architects are usually the best option for standard residential construction projects. Structural engineers might be necessary for custom home builds or for alterations that could affect your home’s structural integrity. Draftsmen cost the least of the three, followed by architects and then structural engineers.
The process typically takes 2-6 weeks, depending on the project size and level of customization.
You'll find Arts and Crafts homes across the country in varying styles. On the East Coast, bungalows and Tudor Revivals fill the Boston area through New Jersey. In the West, Mission-style homes incorporate terracotta shingles, white stucco siding, and rounded archways.
You don’t have to commit to a complete home renovation to age in place comfortably—those can get pricey. Instead, focus on a few impactful changes. Consider adding a stair lift or installing ramps to eliminate barriers. Upgrading to non-slip flooring can prevent falls while adding brighter lighting can improve visibility throughout your home. These thoughtful updates can make your home much easier to navigate and enhance your comfort and safety without the stress and cost of a complete overhaul.
Most towns and cities have regulations regarding sign dimensions for businesses. If you're opening a new business, contact the town or city's local zoning board to see the specifications you need to follow when getting your sign created.

Sign companies generally won't offer refunds once custom signs have been fabricated.
