We are a family owned business focusing on interior and exterior painting and finished carpentry services to fit all of your needs. Paying sharp attention to detail we are able to deliver on ALL customer needs and desires for each individual project.
"This started off as a 2-part job. One part needed to wait in a bathroom until a shower unit could be installed in the basement bathroom. The first part was to drywall a missing ceiling and wall in a kitchen. They completed this work. There are some sunken screw heads that need a second coat of mut still. The wall is fine in the kitchen. They drywalled around the toilet area in a main floor bathroom but did not fill in the hole from an old medicine cabinet. The entire main floor bathroom was to be completed it's not. In the basement there was a half wall that was to be drywalled. It's completed and finished. In the basement bathroom the quote says they will used green board they did not. We asked them not to drywall the outside wall of the bathroom because it needed to still be insulated and they drywalled half of this wall. We had given them a lock box to the home and before we could even see what was completed at the home Mario called and demanded full payment even though only half the work was completed. I did pay him the full amount at that time trusting that they would be back to complete the rest of the work. When we did get a chance to see the home a few days later we let Kevin the sales guy know that they used the wrong drywall in the bathroom and drywalled half of a wall that we asked them not to. We removed the drywall on this wall so that the insulation could be installed. The shower was installed and we scheduled them to return to complete the remainder of the drywall. Mario the owner came back to view the job and was very disrespectful and aggressive with my partner. He was very difficult and would not listen to what needed to be accomplished still at the home. It was clear he had no interest in completing the work since had been paid. My partner didn’t feel safe in the home with Mario's aggressive behavior. When he called me to discuss he continued he further aggressive language and told me to “Suck His Dick” which is a clear reflection of his character."

Locally owned company, with owners that have over 30 years of experience in the industry. Specializes in doors, windows, siding, and roofing. Products sold by Markin Co are environmentally friendly and innovative.
"Our sliding door was ordered and installed on time with appropriate correspondence. The installers were nice but attempted to leave the job without ensuring that the door was squared and closed completely. When I pointed this out to them in the driveway, they came back and addressed the issue. Later in the evening I noticed that an weather seal inside the door was clearly damaged (visible by rips and tears in a black seal showing white insulation beneath) in a way not possible by use. I called the company on numerous occasions, sent numerous emails with photos of the issue starting on the day of installation and now, four months later, I have only received follow-up calls from the company when they're canceling an appointment to repair the issue and have never received a follow-up call on how they will address the issue. The door and installation was paid in cash. I would seriously reconsider using Markin for any large job as this was just one door and I've been waiting four months now."

Most sheds larger than six feet by eight feet require a foundation to remain level and dry. A compact tool shed might get by without one, but anything heavier should sit on at least a 4-inch-thick stone-and-gravel pad that extends two feet past the walls. The gravel protects wood skids and promotes drainage. If you want maximum stability—and your budget allows—a poured concrete slab is the strongest option.
Your ideal shed size hinges on purpose. A common 10-by-12-foot kit gives you 120 square feet—plenty for lawn tools and bikes. Need just a spot for a mower and a few rakes? A compact 4-by-7-foot model should work. If you’re envisioning a workshop or hobby room, look at 12-by-16 feet or larger.
A good rule is to raise the shed floor four to six inches above the surrounding soil. That clearance encourages water to drain away instead of pooling beneath the structure. The simple step is especially important for wood floors and skids, helping deter rot, mold, and insect damage while extending the life of your new outbuilding.
Choose the route that fits your goals. Prefab sheds arrive in standard layouts and go up fast—perfect for basic storage on a tight timeline. Custom builds cost more and take longer, but let you add windows, wiring, plumbing, and unique finishes. Balance budget, features, and timeframe before deciding which type of shed is best for your needs.
