Common Questions

What does a typical bathroom remodel include, and how long does it usually take?

Our bathroom remodeling services typically include demolition, new tile work, plumbing updates, vanity and countertop installation, lighting, and painting. Depending on the scope, most bathroom remodels take between two and four weeks from start to finish. We work closely with you to choose materials and keep the project on schedule, so you’re not without a bathroom any longer than necessary.

Do you handle fence weatherproofing for Des Moines’ humid summers and harsh winters?

Yes. Des Moines weather can be tough on fences, with freeze-thaw cycles, snow, and high humidity. We treat new and existing fences with weatherproofing sealants designed for Iowa’s climate. This helps prevent rot, warping, and rust, extending the life of your investment. We also inspect posts and hardware at the same time, so minor issues are caught before they become costly repairs.

Can you repair an existing deck, or do you always recommend a full replacement?

We always assess your current deck’s structural integrity first. If the damage is limited to a few boards, railings, or loose hardware, repair is often the more cost-effective option. However, if the joists or ledger board are rotted or the deck was built without proper permits, a full replacement may be safer and more durable in the long run. We’ll give you an honest recommendation either way.
