"I found the Wheeler Brothers on Angie's List and called to discuss the work that I needed done. They were very responsive to my phone calls and e-mails, and we agreed on an estimate and date for the work to be completed. They arrived on time and completed all of the work in one day. While working, they suggested some repairs to the gutters that would help to prevent future damage. I agreed to the additional work and the additional charge for materials and labor. I am very satisfied with the work done by the Wheeler Brothers, particularly in the areas of responsiveness, competence, and price. I expect to hire them again for some additional work later this year."

Since 1996, the Smallwood Family has been helping homeowners enrich their home living experience. Smallwood Renovations is a leading provider of home improvement products and services for homeowners in Richmond, Charlottesville, Williamsburg, Fredericksburg and all points in between.

"DO NOT use them for gutters! They simply charge you more and contract out the job but they do not inspect or guarantee the work. Went with Smallwood because of their reviews - thought I was going with a reputable company but it entire process has been frustrating .. time consuming and extremely disappointing . ( not to mention costly) In August we contacted Smallwood for gutter replacement. We decided to get new gutters, down spouts ( 19 feet front 19 feet back) and guards( back of townhome only as suggested by sales person ) for our town home and I paid for new fascia upfront to avoid the additional “surprise” charges that often come with gutter installation - very simple straightforward job with a price tag of $2300 - that is $57 dollars per square feet This is an exceptionally high rate even for fascia, gutters and 19 feet of leaf guard but even though the estimate was higher than the others we received - we wanted to make sure the job was done correctly due to past experiences and we went with Smallwood because the salesperson assured us we would get quality.. stress free work from a reputable family owned business. The estimate was relatively quick and easy - but It took multiple phone calls ( from me not them ) to schedule the work and over a month to complete the job.. and it was done by two different groups of workers. The taking down of old gutters ( this crew left over 30 nails in and around my home- which I had to remove because we have pets that can’t wait to go outside) and 2 different stages of repair means we had no gutters while waiting for the actual installation!! Once they finally completed the job - they reached out immediately for final payment ( the most efficient part of this job ) We noticed quickly that the front gutters leaked - ( not just dripping but pouring down the front of our house ) I contacted Smallwood and they assured us they would send someone out to check the problem. They also asked us to send pics and video ( which I did) .. I did not hear back so I contacted Smallwood again. They said they sent someone ? And he did not see a problem. I reminded them about the video.. 3 weeks later no response.. reached out yet again and this time was told that it the roof was installed without proper over hang so I would need a drip guard or leaf guard to move the water in to the gutter. for 19feet?? I asked if this issue was so obvious why didn’t they repair during the installation? No reason given but they did offer to fix the issue for $700 (due to their minimal charge policy) then promptly send a lower estimate of $400 ( so I would believe they were doing me a favor!!!!) It is Feb now and I still don’t have a resolution - I’m going to call another company for repair.. not giving Smallwood another penny of my money Red flags: * they do not give you an itemized estimate - so for example if your NEW gutters leak they can say the problem wasn’t included Even the receipt is not itemized! Beware! * contracting the work out ( just go with the less expensive company ) * the sales pitch about family owned and operated doesn’t help if they don’t have decent values or practice good customer service!"

The Pinkney Services is a full service Woman Owned commercial and residential construction company. We focus in new construction, renovation, and restorations. Our objective is to exceed the expectations of our clients, by working closely with our project managers, architects, and engineers to guarantee a quality product, on time and on budget.

"From start to finish, my experience with Pinkney Services was excellent. My teenage son reversed my SUV into my garage wall and damaged my kitchen. They took a rather unfortunate and very stressful situation and turned it into a positive experience. They were responsive, very professional, communicative, and managed the project seamlessly within the amount allocated by my insurance company. Their workmanship is top-notch, and they paid great attention to detail. They repaired the garage and restored my kitchen to what it looks like when I first purchased it at new construction. I highly recommend Pinkney Services for any construction needs."

Architects questions, answered by experts

Utilize CAD software for precision, modern design visualization, and alterations.

Fees depend on project size, design complexity, required permits, materials, labor, and whether additional consulting services are included.

The essential difference between an architect and an engineer is that architects typically focus more on the aesthetic design of buildings, although not without consideration for the structural integrity of the building. Engineers focus more on the structural, technical, and practical aspects of whether and how an architectural design can be built as drawn. You may need to hire both types of professionals if you’re designing and building a new home.

Some homes, like those with flat roofs, may not have eaves at all. Some contemporary-style homes also lack eaves, although many may have abbreviated eaves to divert water and protect the walls and foundation. Homes without eaves often have specific types of gutters affixed directly to the edge of the roof to provide adequate drainage.

Whether you’re building a new home or building an extension on your existing property, you will likely need both a structural engineer and an architect. A structural engineer will determine what loads your foundation and framing can safely handle, and an architect will draw plans according to those structural calculations to simplify the building process. You can start by contacting a structural engineer near you, as many work alongside architects and can get all of the prep work done at once.
