"Wonderful experience working with Star Creek Construction! Prompt, cleaned up every afternoon prior to leaving. Everyone knew the tasks they were to perform so all worked well together. Would hire them again without any reservations. Jeremy has a skilled team that provides excellent quality!"
"We were so pleased with their service the first time that we had them come back to finish the rest windows. We were very pleased with the service we got and the work that they did. We would definitely use them again and we've referred our neighbors to them. A year or two after the windows were installed one got a crack. We called them and they came replaced at no charge - no issue."

We used smith Thompson in Harris county for many years and never had a complaint about their staff or service they provided."
"Greetstreet (Home Energy Efficiency) is a small company with trustworthy employees who will do their best to do a good job for you if you hire their services. Greenstreet Home Energy Efficiency just completed a large project on my home, which involved installing a radiant barrier, 2 solar fans, duct sealing, some insulation (target was R30), and some sub-flooring. I had a couple of small projects done by them before this one (duct sealing in the attic and a smaller solar fan). I learned about them through Angie?s List. The person who managed and/or performed all the work on my home was Carl. Carl is good at what he does and will do his best to do right by you. Carl did his best to address any concerns I had on the project and was happy to go over any topics associated with the project with me until I was satisfied. For instance, while performing the installation, Carl realized that the initial estimate for the amount of sub-flooring needed was insufficient, once I had gone through the pre-installation walk-through of the project with him. He scheduled another day with me to finish the sub-flooring at my convenience with no extra cost for time or materials. Also, when the insulation was being installed, a wire was compromised that was connected to our smoke/carbon monoxide detectors. Carl offered to get batteries for me so the alarms wouldn?t beep until the connection could be restored. This wasn?t necessary as I had batteries available, fortunately. Carl setup an appointment for an electrician to address the issue at my earliest possible convenience, with no charge. The electrician was courteous and professional and took care of the problem with no issues. Carl may not always be completely accurate with his estimated travel times to the work site due to traffic around Houston and the locations he needs to visit to acquire his materials, but he will let you know if something is holding him up. If you order any of their services through Angie?s list, most of the packages include a home energy audit. This is similar to a sales pitch, in that part of the purpose of an energy audit is to determine what can be done to your home to make it more energy efficient. If your home is very energy efficient, they won?t have many recommendations. If it?s not, they may have a lot of them. James was my Home Energy Efficiency Auditor and he?s also good at what he does. He?s familiar with the latest technologies in Home Energy Efficiency and will have a good idea of what?s best for your home depending on what you want to spend, and what rebates/tax credits are available for you if you want to move forward. James didn?t do any pressure selling with me. He told me what he thought would help me save money with my electric bill, and how much the recommended project would cost, and left it at that (along with his contact information). If you don?t feel like you?re ready to spend a bunch of money, or you?re not sure if you want to move forward without doing some research first, just tell them that, and that?s fine. The last deal I bought from them prior to having the radiant barrier installed was for $500 dollars? worth of insulation with an energy audit. At this point I was familiar with the company and their work and decided to go ahead with the radiant barrier, and they rolled my insulation package into that deal. But if I?d only wanted to go with the $500 of insulation instead, they would have been fine with that. What was most important to me was that they were professional and courteous, and that they truly seem to care about me as a customer and a person in general. They were open and honest with me about anything I wanted to talk to them about and any concerns I had with the project, and did their best to address any concerns I had. They did their best to make sure I was happy with the work that was done before requesting payment. I would work with them again. As far as the benefits of the installation that was performed ? previously, even when the temperatures outside the house had been in the 70s (like they have been recently), the attic was still at least 20 to 30 degrees hotter than that. With the radiant barrier the attic hasn?t been that much hotter than the ambient temperatures outside. The house has already been noticeably cooler and the A/C unit hasn?t been on nearly as much as it used to be. Greenstreet said that I should expect to be able to save about 30 percent on my electricity bills due to my savings from cooling and heating the house. From what I?ve seen so far I believe them. In summary, if you?re looking to make your home more energy efficient (and get a tax credit while doing so), I highly recommend Greenstreet!
"I consulted with Rob to remove some trees and to discuss placing a root barrier at the front of my home. I have had some cracking inside the house and had been advised to install a root barrier for some oak trees in the front yard. Rob gave me an estimate for the oak trees but on examining the house and yard said that the trees were quite small to be causing that damage, as well as that the damage was not located where it would be expected if due to the trees. He placed a call to consult with a local foundation expert including video of the trees and the cracked expansion joint on the side of my house. At the same time while he was examining the property he recognized that right next to where the foundation damage is occurring, there is a part of the yard that is chronically waterlogged. Once he pointed it out it was clear that this is the source of the foundation damage, particularly since we've had severe droughts in the last several years but this part of the lawn is usually very wet. Rob also spoke with the adjacent neighbor on that side about drainage issues in his lawn, as some of the water is coming from the neighbor's irrigation. The drainage system he installed cost 600$, whereas the root barrier would have been $3,000 and wouldn't have fixed the problem. So I really feel that Rob's honesty, experience, and thorough evaluation of our problem saved us a ton of money, corrected an issue with the lawn we've had since moving in, and rescued our foundation. The tree removal was great. All of the work was done in about seven hours, and there was no clutter or mess left. I will definitely be a repeat customer for landscaping needs in the future."
Local zoning laws and building codes will determine whether you can build a guest house in your backyard. These laws may limit the potential location of the guest house on your lot or the size and look of the structure. If your lot isn’t large enough, you may not be able to build a guest house at all. Speaking with a local home addition company can help you learn about the local regulations and your other options, such as adding an ADU onto the main house.
It’s better to build a garage than buy and install a prefabricated one. You can save money by purchasing a prefabricated metal garage kit for between $4,000 and $11,000. However, this does not include the price of labor and permits, which can account for more than half of the project cost. Building a new garage over buying a prefab garage will add more value to your home and will last longer, so it’s more cost-effective over time to build a new garage.
Prefab sheds can be worth it, depending on your needs and goals. If you want to build the shed yourself or have a quick project turnaround, then a prefab shed will likely be worth it. If you want something more customized, then starting from scratch may help you achieve your goals better than a prefab could.
The decision to build or buy an outdoor pizza oven depends on your personal preferences, budget, and time. Whether building is cheaper hinges on the style you choose and the tools and materials you already possess. For example, having a surplus of fire bricks from a previous project can significantly reduce costs. However, if you need to purchase all the required materials, buying a pre-made oven is often the more affordable and less labor-intensive option, with prices for quality versions typically ranging from $300 to $1,000. Keep in mind that while a DIY project can be cheaper than hiring a professional for a custom build, it carries the risk of injury or costly construction errors.
The most significant expense when building a barndominium is constructing the metal shell, which includes the roof, doors, and windows. Additional exterior components impacting the overall cost include metal siding and the concrete foundation.
