"It is difficult to find the adequate words to describe my experience with Mighty Dad. Sp very beyond wonderful. A superhero that swooped in and absolutely Saved the Day. My previous “contractor” had lied and deceived and taken full advantage of my naivety (and ultimately absconded with close to $20,000.00), leaving me with an unfinished shell. After taking a few months to lick my wounds and find funds to finish the project, Jeff Phillips gave me a very reasonable quote to complete the addition. Once he began the work, there were many (many, many) problems with the structure that had been constructed to not meet state and city codes. Jeff worked with me on these and put things right. His installation of the insulation, drywall and all finishing touches was superb – he’s a real craftsman. And all along the way he would explain what was needed, offer solutions and get my input before moving forward. He also had some great ideas for the interior design aspects for tile, flooring and trim work concerns. His work is meticulous and he ensures that everything is done completely right. He never cuts corners. I am so pleased with the results!! It was a long road getting here, but I am now one happy homeowner. You can’t go wrong if you decided to go with Mighty Dad. Someone should sew a big MD on his shirtfront! I’m very lucky that he landed in my life."

"They did a great job. They came early. They were prompt. They gave me a timeline. They got it done early. They ended up charging me less. It didn't cause any issues and mess inside. The price was reasonable."

"I feel extremely fortunate to have found Vicki through Angie's List !  She is an extremely talented person who is very easy to deal with. She has a breath of knowledge that allows her to accommodate my tastes, but also ensure that the overall design is in sync with the design and location of my home.  She has  a very diplomatic way of suggesting when I'm going astray with my choices and in every case where she has told me "Trust Me"  I have been delighted ! She is very aggressive in helping me find the best pricing and often times will work with the vendors directly  hence saving me the time.  She also has excellent local contacts.  Everyone I've worked with through Vicki has been timely, professional, and highly competent.
My project is far from complete.  I intend to continue to use Vicki and her expert advice until the end !!!!"

"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.

"Glen put my roof on in 2017, the best quality and price. He removed 2 old roofs before installing new, & made sure no stray nails were on ground, taking great pride in his work. Years later, I had him give an estimate on my screened in porch this morning. Impeccable reputation, follows up with his customer long after the sale, he is the first name in my little 'homeowner black book' of reputable contractors I always depend on."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
