"Mike Mellor (MGM Carpentry) had previously completed kitchen cabinet work and we then hired him to replace our existing entertainment center with a custom built one. Mike and his crew were professional, efficient, courteous and neat. We love his work so much that we are already talking to him about another job at our home. I recommend Mike/MGM to anyone who wants fabulous work."

"A coupon promotion was purchased for 4 hours of handyman services. I had talked to the owner on a couple of occasions to ask what materials I needed.  A special reverse swinging door had to be ordered from Lowes to accommodate what I needed.
A pocket door was removed and an entrance way (reversed swing door) door was to be installed.  I wasn't home when the work was performed.  I had a house sitter.
After removal of the pocket door, the handyman determined that he could not install the door as I had wanted.  He wanted to install the door so that it could open into the kitchen.  The door would always bang on the refrigerator.  Had this been the case, I wouldn't have needed to spend an extra four times the amount for a reverse door, I could have just ordered a regular door. 
On the phone with the handyman, I insisted that the door be installed swinging outward as it was meant to.  He was able to come up with a solution.  The door works great. No problems at all.
He also helped level out a screen door that had become slanted.
In terms of responsiveness and punctuality, I had emailed the business owner many times to get a final invoice for the work done.  He never did send me an invoice. I would recommend this vendor.  He did do quality work and left the house clean.

"Mike was very professional and stayed on top of the project from start to finish. The plans were designed by Building Integrity and turned out spectacular. The sub contractors were conscientious and reliable. The finished room (addition to a bedroom) was above what we expected. The work was done on time and within budget. We would recommend Building Integrity."

FAQs for arbor, pergola or trellis custom build projects in Howell, MI

Pergolas and gazebos are both outdoor structures, but there are differences between the two. A pergola has a slatted roof that allows partial sunlight to filter through, creating a light and airy space. In contrast, a gazebo features a solid roof that provides complete shade. This key difference influences the comfort and visual appeal of your outdoor space.

Prefabricated pergola kits require one to four hours of assembly, while custom pergola designs take an average of eight to 16 hours. Additional groundwork, such as pouring a concrete slab, leveling the site, and removing obstructions, may extend the installation process to several weeks, ensuring a secure and long-lasting build.

A standard pergola kit ships with everything you need—four support posts, rafters, top runners, support beams, and hardware for anchoring the frame to a concrete pad. Many manufacturers also bundle add-ons like retractable canopies, privacy screens, or modular sections that let you tweak the footprint. Because each part is pre-cut and labeled, the kit helps you—or your contractor—assemble a sturdy, attractive structure without extra trips to the hardware store.
