"I hired Ultimate Craftsman to tear down an old deck and build a new larger screened in porch with sky lights in it's place. The designer Dave really listened to what I wanted and got on paper my exact vision. The owner Mark always answered his phone and was quick to address any concerns. He used quality materials and professional craftsman. His carpenter John and his roofer Rodney showed great pride in their work. The end result was exactly what I asked them to build and we have received many compliments from our neighbors."

"It took about a week to complete the job. The team at Bedrock did an exceptional job.  Jason and his crew members were knowledgeable and professional.  There was great care taken to ensure that there was no yard damage.  The 6 piers were installed and all of the brickwork on the foundation was repaired.  With the lifetime warranty that Bedrock provides and the quality of the work which was provided I feel secure that the foundation of my home is now solid.  I would highly recommend the services of Bedrock to anyone in need of foundational repair.

"My kitchen looks great. The counter tops needed replacing, the cabinets were fading and coming off the walls in several places, I needed new appliances, and the walls and cabinets needed new paint and backsplash. Ryan’s remodeling took care of it all, and it looks as good as new! The guy was punctual, knowledgeable, and got it done in a weekend. I would definitely use them again for any other projects I have."

David was on time and very professional. He spent an appropriate amount of time evaluating the 2 areas we had requested. He documented the inspection w/ photos, measurements, and sketches. He provided a verbal preliminary report and is to provide a written final report w/ specifications for the mods we are proposing. (Removing a wall upstairs and a post downstairs.) We were happy to hear that our mods were going to be less complicated than originally thought and consequently less expensive. We have the peace of mind that the proposed changes are structurally sound and will be done correctly.

"The technician did an excellent job. It did take a while to get the repair finished, but that was due to Bertazzoni delivering the parts. I have had multiple problems with this particular appliance. My range now works better than it did when new, but I have a feeling that even if I have continuing problems with it, American Home Shield will just repair rather than replace due to the cost of the range. By the way, I'm not exactly sure of the date of the repair."

We will definitely have them back to do other projects that we need around the house. The crew was very friendly and efficient."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Start by inspecting and encapsulating your crawl space to prevent moisture damage and wood rot prevalent in coastal Virginia. Next, hire local professionals to inspect and pump your private septic system. You should also evaluate your property for poor drainage and assess mature trees near your house. Finally, verify your flood zone status and upgrade your insulation before starting other home building projects.

Helpful?

Always secure a final inspection and a certificate of occupancy from local officials after completing home building projects in Gloucester. You must update your property records and notify your homeowner and flood insurance carriers to ensure your coverage reflects the new structural improvements. Finally, establish a seasonal maintenance routine to inspect your drainage systems and crawl space before the annual hurricane season begins.

Helpful?

Many homeowners overlook strict zoning setbacks and buffer requirements near tidal wetlands. Because Gloucester features expansive clay soils and high water tables, securing septic approvals and engineering proper foundations takes extra time. You must also account for floodplain regulations and environmental reviews before starting home building projects. Always consult local authorities early to ensure your property layout supports your construction goals safely and legally.

Helpful?

Older properties in VA feature pier-and-beam foundations, outdated wiring, and under-insulated walls that require upgrades during home building projects. High humidity and clay soils make existing crawl spaces vulnerable to moisture damage and wood rot. Additionally, strict limits on impervious surfaces and the location of your private septic drain field dictate exactly where you can place new additions or outbuildings on your lot.

Helpful?

The humid subtropical climate in Gloucester demands moisture-resistant materials and careful timing for concrete curing. You must adhere to strict wind load requirements to protect your structure from tropical storms and hurricanes. Because the area is largely rural, contractor availability and permit approvals require extra time. Schedule your home building projects during the spring or fall to avoid disturbing wet, clay-heavy ground.
