"Mr. Workman installed a bathroom fan/light/heater in my home. I cannot say enough good things about this gentleman. He works nonstop, is knowledgeable on so many levels, and his workmanship is very impressive. He is neat and a complete professional. Cecil has painted several bedrooms and installed ceiling fans for me. He also put a heat resistant film on my storm door which required an exceptional amount of patience. A better worker you will not find!"
"Platinum replaced my hail damaged roof. The work was done in a very timely manner while going above and beyond what was originally estimated. (Repairing the builders short cuts) Communication was great and cleanup was very good. Highly recommended!"
"Brian and his team did an outstanding job. I added a second story deck and a new door from my dining room to access the new deck. I have an older home with all the challenges that come with that on a remodel and their attention to detail was perfect. The team that completed this project were outstanding from start to finish. They were knowledgeable and professional. They worked with me on a couple of design changes mid project and knew just what to do to make everything look like it had always been there. I have worked with a lot of contractors over the years, both in my work life and on home projects, and these guys know what they are doing. Handypro will be my go to contractor for all future projects."
"Kevin Martin and his crew of Amish builders did a marvelous job in construction of our 24’ x 32’ pole barn. We had to wait a few months for them to get started because they are very busy due to their excellent reputation. This is a good reason!"
After searching around for someone to pressure wash our house and driveway, I eventually went to Angie?s List to find a pressure washing company and saw all the exceptional comments about A&K Power Washing. They provided an estimate within 24 hours of contacting them and we were grateful for their promptness because it was getting late in the season and we needed the work done right away. They have just finished cleaning our vinyl siding, concrete driveway, porch, steps, and deck and I can confirm all the comments I read as accurate. Professional, environmentally conscientious, courteous, responsible: they were all that and more. The work was above and beyond our expectations. We are completely satisfied with the results. Our only wish is that Angie has an A+ rating because we would have gladly given A&K that score (as noted by another customer as well). Our place looks great. I would highly recommend this company. Thanks A&K for a job well done.

"Mr. Blankenship and his designer met with us multiple times to help us figure out exactly what we wanted to do and gave us estimates on the cost of all the different options so that we could make knowledgeable decisions that helped us get the very best outcome and stay within our budget. Mr. Blankenship went out of his way to meet with us when our schedule allowed and was always professional. They provided us with drawings and detailed contracts outlining exactly what would be done. Once the work began they worked diligently to finish the projects. One of my neighbors remarked that they seemed very conscientious and that he wished he had used Alternative Building Concepts on a job he just had done. Mr. Blankenship even came out several times just to meet with the carpet layers because he wasn't happy with some of the seams. All the work they did was first rate and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. Everything Alternative Building Concepts did improved our home and we would not hesitate to use them again. "

The construction stage is almost always the longest part of building a house. Within this stage, framing often takes the most time, lasting anywhere from one week to a couple of months, depending on the home's size, the crew, and the time of year. Other parts of the construction phase include pouring the foundation and installing doors, windows, a roof, siding, drywall, and flooring. The planning and design phase can also be very time-consuming, sometimes taking months or even years, especially for a custom home. The final finishing process, which includes painting and installing trim, is typically shorter than the construction or planning stages.
Any type of construction that damages a tree’s roots via soil compaction can be dangerous, and is one of the primary causes of mature tree death in residential areas. Simply putting lots of weight on the ground around the tree, like construction supplies, trailers, and equipment, can kill roots near the surface. Of course, installing new foundations, patios, or utility lines can cut through nearby tree roots. Accidentally striking a tree with equipment or supplies is rarely a problem, but can cause damage of its own, too.
