Can I choose my own materials?

What steps would do you take to ensure minimal disruption to my property during the project?

We do such things as stage the project in phases when it makes sense, using plastic walls and floor runners or drop clothes to collect dust and dirt. We put fans in the windows, cloth filters over return air grilles, and we clean up daily and remove debris on a daily basis.

What are the start dates and estimations of a typical job?

We’ll make an estimation regarding the length of time a project will take. But due to weather, additional work orders, material back orders, and the projection of when other current clients will be finished, we’re unable to give an exact finish date. Once we establish that starting date, we commit to being there each work day until your job is finished.

Do you use subcontractors and in what areas do they service?

Yes, we sometimes use subcontractors with electrical, plumbing, excavation, concrete, masonry, insulation, air conditioning, and installing stone counters. But our tradesmen are well-skilled in all areas of the remodeling/renovations process.

Will my project require a permit?

Typically any alterations or additions involving electrical, mechanical, structural, or plumbing changes will require a permit. We are well-versed on the local regulations and will determine when a permit is necessary for the completion of the project. Because permit costs based on the size of the project and local regulations, they are not included in our estimates.
