"We love our cabinets! They look fantastic while remaining affordable. The friendly staff at AWD helped us from start to finish. They are very knowledgeable and gave us advice and tips when needed. They were receptive and patient with our ever-changing needs. Once we finalized our purchase, we received our cabinets within two weeks! The cabinets are very sturdy and the color is beautiful. The hinges and hardware are high quality. We are extremely pleased with AWD and would recommend them to any friends or family looking for good cabinets at a fair price."
"This is my second review for Cox Custom Remodeling and once again I have to give them an A+. This project was an unexpected master bathroom remodel that was required when we discovered our tile floor had a large spongy spot. My husband is disabled and can only use our master bathroom. When James (owner) evaluated the situation and knew that he would have to rip up the floor, he offered to do it while we were on vacation and have it completed upon our return. Since I had past experience with James, I completely trusted him to do this. We were not disappointed. It turned out to be a lot more work than originally anticipated with several rotten floor joists and a leak discovered behind the shower. James and his crew worked diligently including over the weekend, to be sure that it was completed when we arrived home from vacation. He took pictures to show us the damage they found and kept me updated on the progress. We wound up having to replace all the tile in our large double shower and the floor throughout the bathroom. We replaced a glass bock wall with large glass panels, and we put in a new toilet and new shower fixtures. James’ crew and subcontractors are excellent and we were very happy with their work. All of the people associated with Cox Custom Remodeling have proven to be reliable, professional, and good at what they do. James always makes sure that any problems that come up are resolved to his customers’ satisfaction. He is consistently on or under time and budget. Can’t wait until we have another project we can hire him for!"
"Home Solutions does quality work! Dave and his crew go above and beyond to get the job done. They pay close attention to detail. We used them to flip my dad's house, including crawl space cleaning, bathroom remodeling, yard cleanup, stump removal, and much more. Would hire again!"
"Top Notch installed a glue down LVP floor in my very uniquely shaped home. It came out beautifully in spite of many challenges caused by shape of my home Dymtro and David did a great job and were very pleasant to work with. Great attention to detail.

"Excellent work throughout and he was versatile. He solved problems such as rodent proofing our garage. Of special note is the work he did refurbishing the roof. He extended its life by a decade."
Adding a mudroom is one of the most budget-friendly home additions compared to other projects, costing between $8,000 and $16,000 on average. Not only is the room often quite small, but it also requires minimal fixtures or wiring to make the room practical. The most costly features include a weatherproof floor and an exterior door.
Some features and upgrades you can add (some of which increase the closet’s value) are: modular shelving, motion-activated lighting, climate control, custom lighting, cigar humidors, revolving shoe racks, jewelry shelves, custom woodwork, and built-in laundry hampers. While only truly luxury closets have all of these, many custom closets have at least one special feature listed above.
Yes, books are typically heavier than clothes, unless you have a collection exclusively of paperbacks or comic books. That’s why packing lots of books warrants careful planning and consideration. Consider packing up your reading collection first to determine whether you need to downsize it before loading it into your moving truck.
The time it takes to build a closet varies widely depending on the project's size, complexity, and level of customization. On average, construction can take anywhere from a few days to two weeks.
A simple reach-in closet might be completed in less than a day, while a more complex walk-in closet could take one to two days or more. A typical project often falls in the 2-to-5-day range. However, a large, highly customized walk-in closet that requires structural changes, like moving a load-bearing wall, will take significantly longer.
A professional contractor can provide the most accurate time estimate for your specific project. If you are planning a DIY build, it is best to budget additional time.
If you’re on a tight budget, the least expensive material you can buy for DIY closet shelves is chipboard, a.k.a. particle board. This inexpensive material is made from a pulp of sawdust, resin, and glue that’s pressed together under high temperature and pressure. As you can imagine, it’s not very sturdy and might buckle under your blue jean collection, so you should only use it if you’re storing very light items.
