"Quality of work was very good and they were very willing to do any rework requested. The project took longer than they thought and due to the way they schedule it led to some breaks in their work (a few days off here and there). That said, they were great to work with and we're very pleased with the final work. I would definitely use them again."

"I chose Home Pride Contractors to install a new roof and gutters after a hailstorm last year. They were prompt, professional, and did quality work. The crew uncovered an issue the vent pipe when taking off the old singles. The owner Michelle, immediately came on-site to make sure it was safe to replace that area of the roof. Overall, exceptional customer service. A+ for Home Pride."

"We are very pleased with the work HSP completed in our home. They completely remodeled two bathrooms and repaired water damage and walls in a bedroom. We discovered several unexpected problems behind the walls of our old home, and HSP was adept at modifying our plan to resolve all surprises. Pricing was reasonable, and all staff were professional. We look forward to using HSP on future projects."

"The short answer . . . Gary Haldeman is honest, creative, attentive, and delivers quality you cannot believe. We asked for four things: make our master bathroom beautiful; make it appear bigger than it is; make it easy to clean; and make it super functional and durable. He delivered and then some, on time and on budget. We cannot recommend HC Remodel & Design highly enough.The long answer . . . We were faced with a tiny, 1967 bathroom off our master bedroom that had become unusable. The plumbing was shot and leaking, the materials were so old they could no longer be repaired, and the design was awful and dated. The room was causing us a lot of stress. It had to go. We had never undertaken a remodeling project before; complete and total novices. We began the process of seeking proposals. We had companies come give us the quick rundown and throw a sheet of prices at us with lots of "to be determined" in the margins; companies who called back once then never again; companies who _never_ called back; wow, it was an adventure. Then, we found HC Remodel & Design. ESTIMATE -- Gary visited (twice), talked about our goals with us, measured and completed drawings, and consulted with his plumber on a few points BEFORE providing us with an estimate. So again, we were not even clients yet, and _that_ was his attention to our project. Impressive. Clearly, he's very busy, and would often ask to stop by in the evening. Always on time, always courteous, always worked great with our schedule. In the end, he delivered an estimate that above all else was ACCURATE and REALISTIC. These projects (ours a total gut with all new plumbing) are not cheap, and Gary's estimate may not be your lowest, but you get what you pay for. With Gary, there were no shocking surprises during the project because of the care that went into preparing for it. RECOMMENDATIONS/GUIDANCE -- Gary is very creative and has terrific ideas. In our case, we were wanting to make a very small space appear larger. It never would have occurred to us to wall hang our toilet and sink, but Gary suggested it, and what a great decision. He also crafted a custom in-wall cabinet and some in-wall cubby areas for us that have increased our storage space exponentially without taking up any precious room space (also recommended some materials we had not considered using as accents that add interest yet are highly durable and were inexpensive). He suggested some unique stain work as well to create a focal point in the room that draws your eye up to the now higher ceiling, and it's beautiful, and directed us to his preferred suppliers for fixtures, tile, etc., and everyone was great. WORKMANSHIP -- The room is gorgeous. Period. Functionally, there are no issues . . . all plumbing is working great. Installation was outstanding. Gary hires great craftsmen, several of whom told us how much they admire Gary and enjoy working with him (and bonus: we have a cat in our home, and they all were very careful about his whereabouts and gave him extra scratches every day, so that he was not stressed by the process at all). The best aspect, for our project, is the tile work. We just love it! The attention to detail there was beyond expectations, and it is really flawless. COMMUNICATION -- Gary and Crystal in his office were so responsive from the beginning to the end of our project. They use a software program that allows you to see the progress of your project, monitor the budget, compare all of your selections in one location, and most importantly, posts notes and ask questions. Nothing ever gets lost in voice mails or a sea of emails. We absolutely loved the ease of that program, and Gary or Crystal always responded to our questions posted there in a timely fashion. INTEGRITY -- Meet once with Gary, and you'll know who you are dealing with. He is outstanding at his work, a true craftsman who clearly loves what he does, and a business man who delivers. But you are also working with a person who is honest and true to his word. We trust him implicitly and would never hire anyone else."

"Dean and his brother were superb. These guys install windows the right way - they remove all trim (outside and inside), then install and provide interior trim and outside wrap/brick moulding that looks beautiful. We love the new windows and had no idea how bad our old ones were until we looked out these new ones. Their craftsmanship is second to none and everyone we interacted with was pleasant and positive. The work was completed on time and they cleaned up everything afterward. Dr. Exteriors' price also could not be beat. We compared prices from 4 other contractors to theirs and they were at least $4k less than the others. We were originally only going to replace the 1st floor windows due to our budget, but when Dean came back with an estimate that was significantly below the others, we decided to just do the whole house. Our only 'complaint' would be with the window manufacturer themselves (Heartland Windows). Their production process took a while and we had a couple of delays. We did however, have special order windows that had the blinds inside them, so I believe that played a major role in the delay. Overall, if you are considering replacement windows, you should definitely get several estimates and be sure to include Dr. Exteriors as one of them. Compare for yourself, but in my opinion these guys won on price, quality, craftsmanship and customer service!"

"We were selling our house. The buyer did a home inspection and felt that we had some hail damage to the roof. They followed up the inspection with a contractor inspection which also determined damage. I contacted our insurance company and they agreed that there was a claim. We had already determined a closing date and we did not want this to go to escrow, plus I was moving out of the state and the weather was terrible. The easiest thing I could have done was to hire the contractor that had already looked at the roof. They however had vehicle license plates from another state and caller ID from a different state than that! I contacted 3 companies of which Trinity was one. Understanding the situation, they were out quickly to look at the roof, came out Saturday to review the quote, put it into production that Monday, worked hand in hand with the Insurance company, did the beautiful installation in the 2 days it wasn't raining, and did a beautiful job of cleanup. I forgot to mention, this was a very large job. $40K. A 3800 square foot house/garage and a out building. This group was magnificent. They exceeded my expectations, and that doesn't happen very often. I can and do rest comfortably knowing the new owners have a beautiful new home protected with a Trinity roof, gutters and sky lights. THANKS TRINITY!!!"

FAQs for major home repair (general contractor) projects in Council Bluffs, IA

In many cases, it’s much less expensive to convert a bus than to buy an RV, especially if you’re considering a newer RV model, which can exceed $100,000.

Another huge benefit of school bus conversion is that you are in control of the renovation project. You get to pick your camper's new layout and all the appliances and furniture.

While school buses can easily cost $300,000 when they're new, you can often find used buses for just a few thousand dollars. These vehicles experience extreme depreciation due to government regulations; they can only be used for so long before they must be replaced. Due to those same regulations, other government agencies cannot purchase them for their own uses, so the consumer market is the only place they can go.

The length of time it takes to convert a bus depends on the scope of the project (and size of the bus), how much work is DIY vs. done by a professional contractor, and how much work you’re doing up front.

In general, expect at least a couple of months for a conversion, but larger conversions could take six months to a year. Remember: You can tackle projects as you go: Get the basic work done so that it’s livable, and then continue to enhance your living space over time.
