I enjoy the entire process; from design, installation, and the finishing touches of new outdoor living spaces. I worked in this field most of my life, since I was born and raised in Europe where I worked with stone, masonry and pavers frequently. After I moved to America, I decided to pursue a career in hardscaping. I have now worked in this industry for many years and I will continue to provide quality workmanship. We started in this industry in 2000. We describe our business as Family owned and operated. Let us elevate your backyard into a stylish outdoor living space, perfect for entertaining and creating lasting memories with family!. We provide expert project planning, professional paver installation, unique vertical features, and ongoing maintenance to seamlessly blend your indoor and outdoor spaces.

We always strive for perfection. Our attention to detail and dedication to our customers is why our customers love working with us. We specialize in custom bathroom and tile installations, but we can handle your whole remodeling project no matter how big or small. Call or message us to get started on your next dream project.

"I hired Paul to put in a tile shower in my upstairs bath. My husband had already removed the tub and started some of the work. Paul was very accommodating at working with what my husband had done. He and his crew put in the shower floor and even made me a little foot rest in the corner. They put in the new faucets and body jets for me and did all the tile work. He also worked with Crystal Illusions to get the glass and shower doors ordered. My shower is wonderful and I am so happy it is finished. Thanks guys."

"Jesse and the team at Resurrect Construction did a near-whole home remodel on our property. They performed meticulous work with exceptional quality at an affordable price. They were extremely well rounded: siding, exterior doors and lighting, interior flooring, drywall, painting, trim work, and more. When the project met barriers, they even replaced rotted wood and performed mold remediation at an extremely good price with great execution. We felt at ease throughout the duration of the project and the team was conscientious of our living arrangements, children, and working with our schedules. They were extremely professional and polite throughout and we will most definitely consider them for any other projects in the future. If we could give more than 5 stars we would."

Major home repairs (general contractor) FAQs

A general contractor oversees a project from start to completion. They create the project’s timeline and schedule, hire, manage, and pay subcontractors and workers, and purchase and deliver building materials and supplies. They’ll also acquire necessary permits and HOA approvals, plan and execute necessary project changes, and make sure work meets quality standards.

Hiring an independent general contractor costs between 10% and 20% of your overall project cost, with larger projects incurring fees up to 25%. This fee covers complete project oversight, scheduling, and subcontractor management. The fee ranges from a few hundred dollars to tens of thousands of dollars, reflecting the full scope of the planned work and ensuring seamless coordination throughout the construction process.

General contractors typically provide estimates at no charge, but some may charge a small fee, especially for more complex projects. It's important to secure a written estimate, as it establishes a transparent agreement on project scope, labor, materials, and any additional fees. This helps protect you against unforeseen expenses and ensures clarity before the work begins.

When hiring a general contractor, you must provide an upfront deposit that ranges from 10% to 20% of your overall project cost. This deposit secures material orders, labor scheduling, and initial project preparations. An upfront deposit exceeding 50% is a clear warning sign and should prompt thorough contract verification before proceeding.
