"I have been looking for someone to do these floors for years until a friend recommended Stan. He understood exactly what I wanted, and I could not be happier. The customer service, quality, and value were all beyond my expectations. I would use Stan and his crew again without hesitation."

I am an Electrical Engineer student looking for ways to make a little bit of extra money. I have a wide array of skills, and always looking to learn new skills as well as hone them. I enjoy helping others, and the best way I can help is to offer quality services at incredibly affordable rates. I’m not trying to get ahead or take advantage of anybody, I just need extra cash to pay the bills due to limited work hours. I do not mind working weekends, and I will do my best to accommodate your needs and schedule.

"Would have liked to have received an itemized invoice. I did receive a receipt, but it was not itemized. Otherwise, their service was good, they responded quickly to my inquiry and did a good job in servicing the garage door."

"He is honest, prompt, and is meticulous about what he does. He is very careful and does everything in a nice manner. He sticks with us until he has finished and I am satisfied. His prices were reasonable. He continues to do the job until he does it right. He is very responsive. He is very punctual and if he is going to be late, he calls and lets you know. He is very professional. If I have anything to be done anytime, I would rely on him. It is nice to have somebody like him to help. He is going to fix the garage door for me soon. When I met him he was doing work for another house in the neighborhood and I decided to use him since my brother-in-law- was moving in close by. He did things for him and then helped me. He has not given me a quote for that work, but he has been reasonable in everything he has done."

"The pressure washing was complete and thorough. It was neither rushed nor haphazard. Inclement weather required that Mike stand down for several days, but at the first opportunity he and his crew of five experienced painters arrived on the job. This rather surprised me because on five different house painting occasions (here and elsewhere) one painter and his assistant took several days, even weeks to do the job. This large crew began and completed the job in one day. One day!
Anyway, this crew of five immediately fell to, with some painting door trim, some painting window trim, some painting the tall wooden chimney and the others on the house proper. I can think of several words to describe these craftsmen. They all were personable, neat, workman-like, courteous, and appeared to be having fun. In a word they were gentlemen.
A note about our house. It is a pseudo log cabin common in this area of the North Carolina mountains. The logs consist of rectangular 6"x12" pine painted grey and separated by a 3" white "plastic" chinking material. This repetitive separation of colors made their job difficult and slow. Use of painter's tape was inappropriate so every color separation had to be accomplished by hand... and this was done magnificently. Their thoroughness can be illustrated by their treatment of the chinking. Since its original application in the late 90's it had never been painted. So imagine our surprise when Mike and the crew painted the chinking with a brilliant white concrete stain. Made it look like new, added hours to their job and beauty to our home.
I called Mike for an estimate and he responded promptly. Since I am wheelchair-bound my son went over what we needed. Not only did this estimate include the work, but all paint and all other materials. After reviewing the job an estimate was provided the same day. It was several hundreds of dollars cheaper than the next lowest estimate. Incidentally, door weather stripping was repairable and paintable, however Mike chose to replace it with new. This was not included in his original estimate, but he refused to accept additional compensation. He stuck to his initial estimate--to the penny.
After accepting the estimate we were placed on Mikes work schedule. He called before arriving for pressure washing and painting As stated rainy weather delayed painting, but this was a necessary delay. There is no complaint about responsiveness or punctuality. Mike responded promptly and came when he said he would. Can't ask for better than that.
As to quality of work, it is superb. I am unable to view the entire house, but three highly critical individuals have gone over every square foot. These are my wife, my son and his wife. All were extremely pleased. And believe me, if my wife and daughter-in-law aren't happy, no one is happy. They found no fault with anything. No trampled flowers. No missed spots. No sloppy work.. And very important, a complete and proper clean up. My wife says that the crew seemed to do their best to please and that the house looks better than it did when new.
In short, these guys were complete professionals. Mike showed his trustworthiness and I would feel no qualms about referring him to anyone. We have nothing but compliments for Mike's Painting and Pressure Washing.

"First things first Allen farmer is a man of his word. If he says he will do something it is done and done with high quality. I scheduled my vacation around some work that was needed to my home as he rescheduled his schedule to accomidate me. His crew was top notch and I was very impressed with their professionalism down to his laborers.
They came in and stripped my roof down to the plywood and put on the exact products and brands I asked for. They were hit with some unplanned bad weather and put every member of his team to work to cover my roof so that we didn't get any water in the house in which I was amazed. The next day they were their first thing to make sure they finished the roof.
They then began work on my deck that was built not so great by a different contractor and made it more stable and added some vinyl soffit and wrapped the sides with metal. I was so happy with the finished product.
Then they tore out our old bay window and added us a 6ft sliding glass door which is so beautiful. They cleaned up all the trash, nails, scraps and left the yard looking as when they arrived.
After Mr. Farmer was paid in full he overheard me talking about some repairs that my dad needed on his roof and stopped by there and fixed him up at no charge because he is retired and doesnt have spare money for repairs which completely made our day.
I would highly recommed anyone who needs any work done please call Mr. Farmer and he will bring your dreams to life and give you what you need stress free.
To Mr. Farmer thank you for everything and if there are anymore projects we need done to our home you will be the only contractor that I will save your number in my phone as I wont need anyone elses. Keep up the good work and tell your crew thank you!!!

Enclosing a carport essentially turns it into a garage. You’ll start by framing and finishing exterior walls, then add a garage door (averaging $1,200), windows, and wiring for lights or outlets.
Plan for site prep and, if needed, a thicker slab to handle the added weight. Once the walls are up, insulation, drywall, and exterior siding create a secure, weather-tight space that protects vehicles and gear year-round.
A well-built carport may not add a huge dollar figure to an appraisal, but it can boost buyer appeal. Covered parking protects vehicles and lawn equipment, sharpens curb appeal, and fills what might otherwise be an empty driveway space. If the carport matches your home’s style and stays in good repair, it can make the property more attractive and competitive when you decide to sell.
Most cities and counties require a building permit for a new carport. Fees range from $60 to $800, depending on local codes and the size of the structure. Getting the permit upfront ensures the carport meets zoning rules and HOA guidelines, protecting you from fines or expensive retrofits later. Check with your building department—or ask your contractor—before ordering materials or scheduling installation.
A poured concrete slab is the gold standard for carport foundations. Concrete delivers superior load-bearing strength, keeps posts level, and resists shifting in freeze-thaw conditions. While gravel, dirt, or permeable pavers cost less upfront, they can’t match concrete’s long-term stability, especially if you might convert the carport into a garage later. Investing in a slab now can save money and hassle down the road.
Pre-made kits start at $300 and bundle all the required parts—sometimes installation, too—making them the most budget-friendly option. Custom carports cost more ($12 to $40 per square foot plus labor) but let you match the design, size, and finishes to your home.
If price and quick setup top your list, go with a kit. If you have a tricky layout or want a seamless aesthetic, investing in a custom build is worth the premium.
