Interior

• Kitchen Remodeling
  Kitchen remodeling is usually an ambitious project, but it adds considerable value to a home. Most realtors consider the kitchen the most important room in the house, so if yours is looking dated, it may be time for an upgrade. But it’s not only about the looks; a good flow is equally crucial as finishes and storage, to enjoy the time you spend cooking and entertaining.
• Bathroom Remodeling
  When it comes to square footage, bathroom remodels are often one of the most expensive projects you can take on. A lot of work goes into that small space. But having an updated bathroom with a good flow, ample storage, and a relaxing atmosphere not only adds value to your home but also improves the quality of your daily life.
• Flooring
  The look and feel of a home largely depend on the flooring. Since it’s the largest surface in a room, it not only dictates the design style but also influences color, texture, and pattern choices. But looks shouldn’t be the only consideration when choosing a floor; factors like cost, location, maintenance, and durability will play a significant role in your selection. Let’s take a look at the most common flooring choices...
• Door Installation/Replacement
  If you answered yes to any of the above questions, it is probably time for a door replacement. A new door will not only enhance the appearance and add value to your home, but it will also give you energy efficiency, security, and comfort.
• Drywalls
  Drywall, also referred to as sheetrock or wallboard, is the most common material used for interior walls and ceilings. It is made by compressing gypsum plaster into rigid sheets, which are covered on each side with a thick paper. Standard drywall is pale gray or ivory on one side, and a darker gray or brown color on the other. The lighter surface should face into the room as it’s the one meant to receive the finish (i.e., paint).
• Basement Remodeling
• Framing
  This kind of addition is complex and very disruptive. Even though you won’t need to create a new foundation, you may need to strengthen the existing one to carry the extra weight as well as reinforce all the framing. The overall project will have a ripple effect on the rest of your home – everything from mechanical work to structural work to finishes.
• Tile Installation
  Tile flooring is waterproof, easy to clean, and very durable but also cold and hard on bare feet. Radiant heating is always a great option to make it more welcoming, especially during those long winter months in Vermont.
• Fireplaces
  From stone fireplaces to backsplashes, we can help you bring the grandeur of nature inside your home using earth’s sturdiest material.Â
• Staircases
• Wallpapering
  Simple cosmetic repairs like painting, wallpapering, new carpets, or changing a faucet don’t require a permit. But there are plenty of building projects that fall into the gray area, so always check with your town clerk before starting. Believe it or not, zoning administrators want to work with you and will gladly give you all the information you need to complete your project successfully.
• Home Theater Installation
• Garage Remodeling
• Skylight Repair/Replacement
  Many people regard skylights as a luxury addition to a home, but that is not necessarily true anymore. In regions like ours, where long winters reduce the amount of daylight exposure, skylights can easily become a necessity. And today’s skylights do much more than to add architectural flair. They increase privacy, reduce energy use during the day, improve comfort, provide ventilation, and create bright and inviting rooms in your home.
• Garage Conversion
• Cabinet Installation

Construction

• Room Additions
  This type of home addition consists of appending one or more rooms to the existing house. The scope of work can be as simple as adding on a bedroom or as ambitious as adding a full wing with several rooms, like a master suite bedroom and bathroom, or a family room and expanded kitchen.
• New Construction

• Demolition
  If all aspects of the job are well planned and no unexpected problems pop up, your bathroom remodel could take as little as one or two weeks. More complicated projects could take as many as five weeks. There is always a chance to find rot during demolition, especially around the tub or the toilet. Rot repair can set back the project a couple of days.
• Foundation Installation
• Sunrooms
  Sunrooms are a great way to gain living space without breaking the bank. Open and full of light, they can turn into a breakfast area, a playroom, or a great room. Four-season sunrooms have double-pane insulated glass and a thermally broken frame. They are connected to the main utilities of the house (heating, cooling, electrical) for year-round use. Three-season sunrooms are more economical as they don’t require heat or extra insulation.

Landscaping and Fencing

• Landscaping
  An open pool can be a liability risk, so most insurance companies require you to have a fence around it. The right fence will not only add safety, but it can also improve the look of your landscaping and add value to your home.
• Fencing
  Good fences make good neighbors. Privacy and security are the usual reasons to install one, but the type of fence you choose will also play a key role in your home’s exterior aesthetics.
• Driveways
  Once used only for driveways, garages, and basements, concrete floors are now considered a fashion statement when applied to a living space.  Modern techniques for finishing, like adding a dye as the wet concrete is being mixed, or treating the surface with an acid stain afterward, have turned concrete floors into a one-of-a-kind, walk-on piece of art.
• Excavation
  Some people think that excavation is all about playing with oversized toys and moving dirt around. Although this is not entirely untrue, excavation is also an essential step in many construction projects. Using heavy equipment can save a lot of time and energy, but it requires skill and precision to get the job done right without damaging the surroundings. Here are some of the things we can do for you...
• Walkways
  Slate is a fine-grained, metamorphic rock, commonly derived from sedimentary rock shale. Best suited for floors, walkways, roofing, kitchen countertops, and wet bars, slate shades within the same color family often vary widely. Slate usually requires two types of sealants before grouting: one to clog the tiny pores in the stone and another one as a protective layer.

Exterior

• Window Installation/Replacement
  Most replacement windows are available with glass that blocks up to 95% of the sun’s ultraviolet rays that can cause fading, helping you protect and extend the life of your belongings.
• Decks
  Pressure-treated lumber is a favorite decking material due to its low cost and longevity. The most common types of lumber for decks are pine and fir, treated to resist fungus, decay, and insect infestations.
• Patios
  Best for gardens, decks, patios, and pools. Crisscrossing strips of lath obscure the view while allowing air and light to pass through.
• Garage Door Repair/Replacement
  Is everything working as it should? From doorknobs to garage doors, make sure that everything is functioning correctly. That also includes leaky faucets, burnt-out bulbs, and inoperable windows. Make sure that the electrical, plumbing, and heating systems are well maintained and up to code.
• Siding
  Few would disagree that wood siding is the most attractive of home siding options. Classic and welcoming, wood siding comes in a variety of species (spruce, pine, fir, cedar, and redwood) and forms (clapboard, shakes or shingles, board, and batten, or engineered planks). Wood siding typically costs around $10 to $15 per square foot installed without the finish.
• Porches
  What better way to bring people together than a cookout? A new deck will help you and your family make the most of BBQ season!
• Residential Roof Repair
  For most of us, the roof is an afterthought. We don’t realize how critical this component is until it starts to leak. The roof not only keeps your home dry, but it also contributes significantly to the overall appearance of the house. So when building a new house, adding on, or re-roofing, you should consider aesthetics as much as function when choosing a material.  Here are the types of roofs we install...
• Residential Roof Replacement/Installation
  Composite shingles, often called asphalt shingles, are the most popular type of roofing material. There are two kinds: three-tab and architectural shingles. Both are made of fiberglass mat topped with asphalt and mineral granules. Some come equipped with zinc plating to discourage algae build up. They are flexible so they can adapt to the roof’s contraction and expansion.

• Insulation
  Any surface in your home or building that divides the interior from the exterior should be insulated. While no two homes or commercial buildings are the same, more insulation is typically better. There are three main types of insulation...
• Masonry
  Masonry is the art and craft of building and fabricating structures in stone, clay, brick or concrete blocks, which are often laid in and bound together by mortar. Construction of poured concrete reinforced or unreinforced is often also considered masonry.
• Caulking
  Insulation and air sealing work hand in hand to save energy and money. Air sealing is always the first step: Reducing the amount of air that leaks in and out of your home is a cost-effective way to cut heating and cooling costs, improve durability, increase comfort, and create a healthier indoor environment. Weatherstripping and caulking are two simple but effective techniques that offer quick returns on the investment. Caulk is generally used for cracks and openings in walls and floors, and weatherstripping is used to seal components that move, such as doors and operable windows.
