"Working with Steve Hill Homes was a very good experience. It was easy to communicate with Steve and receive feedback about how to proceed with the project, the timeline, and he was quick to respond about what the cost would be. When it was necessary for us to meet, I could depend on him to be there, and my phone calls were always answered with a friendly, helpful response. I felt comfortable letting this company complete my project because of Steve’s experience and home building knowledge."

"This was a major remodel project with complete redo of dining room, two living areas, master bedroom and bath (most of the first floor of our two story home). After attempting to get several bids for the work we chose Gill Construction for their timely response, reasonable prices and highly personal approach. We had used them for an addition to our home 10 years ago and had remembered what a positive experience we had then. From the very first meeting with Jerry and Mickey we were impressed with their professionalism, creativity and obvious interest in our project. We were especially pleased when the subcontractors were brought in during the estimate process which gave me great comfort in the validity of the bid. Jerry came back 3 times to make sure all areas were covered and then provided a detailed quote. (I will say that the other companies I tried were slow in getting back or very high in their quote. ) Our project started on the date chosen and we also agreed to a completion date i(as we all know, these jobs can often drag on.... more on that later). From the very first day, the Gill crew showed up on time and worked diligently. There was a steady flow of workers and I never had to call and ask where somebody was or if someone was going to show up. There had obviously been a focused effort on coordinating each step of the work. I was in constant communication with Mickey throughout the job and cannot say enough about how well he keep me informed and updated on what to expect. Every time he said someone would be there, they were!! This was such a nice part of the experience. We have done other projects with other companies and I always seemed to be calling to ask why people were not showing up. Not so with Gill! And not only do they show up...the subs are all polite, professional and incredibly skilled craftsman! Even when we made some changes along the way (and we made several!), they were quick to accommodate and made sure we were happy with every choice and decision. They also did an amazing job keeping up with daily clean up and keeping the house livable for us. And finally, everything was completed a full week ahead of schedule!!! That is unheard of in my experience! Though I know they had other projects going, we never felt like we were not getting their full attention. And we never felt like they were rushing through just to meet a deadline. We could not be more proud of the finished product or more impressed with Gill Construction! We truly have a transformed home with beautiful, high quality, unique ,custom features that absolutely exceeded our expectations. Jerry and Mickey were involved every step of the way and have a true commitment to customer satisfaction. There is no question where we will turn for any future home projects. (I won't waste my time trying to get bids from any others.) If you are looking for a reputable, trustworthy, and price competitive contractor, do yourself a favor and give them a call! These guys will do it right! I would definitely add a few +++ to that overall A rating!!"
"Excellent job moving my stuff--nothing was damaged. All the animals (3 dog, 1 cat & 1 cockatiel) arrived safe and sound. The modifications to my house were done quickly, professionally and the way I requested."
"The Basement Kings finished their LARGE job this morning, and I can’t praise them enough! They had a long, difficult job, but no complaints. When they discovered a problem, they fixed it. No problem, that’s their job. They found the water problem had a lot to do with drainage, so they worked outside in cold & rain & developed a system to carry water away from the house. That, to me, was over & above, but they said their main objective was to get & keep the basement dry, so they did what they had to do with no complaints. Now you can’t ask for better than that - they give their all! I am totally amazed!!"
"It went FANTASTIC! They completely remodeled the interior of my 20 year old home and relandscaped the outdoors. I made a 175% profit on the sale of my home. Very detail oriented and meticulous in the craftsmanship!"
"I never contacted the provider or used this service in anyway. I have to write this review so that the request to write this review stops popping up. The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit. "
"Once I sent her all the measurements, it took her a little while to get the options back to me. Overall, they're good designs. However, they're very simplistic and give general ideas for space planning. I was hoping to have a better idea for sizes of furniture for the space and some variations on staging. Jill was very responsive when I did have a question. I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a virtual design done. If we lived in similar cities, I'd probably use her again for help with additional designs. "

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.
The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.
While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.
