With my decades of construction experience, I am familiar with the many past and present construction methods. My goal is to make a proper-safe repair that will last and is "very" reasonable in cost to you. I perform all aspects of construction (except landscaping) and this allows for one-stop-shopping for your project needs. No money up front and partial payments as work is progressing.

"We explained to John exactly what we wanted him to do and the materials we wanted him to use. He accepted the job. When he brought the first load of materials to start the project, they were not what we told him we wanted, but what he wanted to use. We insisted he return the materials and bring what we initially instructed him to use. Throughout the project, he was periodically argumentative. Once he finished, we noticed that the doors of the shed had been built too small leaving a large gap on top where he tried to fill in with weatherstripping. Also there was not compensation made for swelling from moisture so when it rained, the doors did not open. Some of the door hinges used were not installed straight which caused them to go bad immediately. His excuse for all these problems was that wood is heavy and warps. We had the doors completely rebuilt again using another local handyman. They are now perfect - exactly what we wanted and they function perfectly. Too bad we had to pay twice to have the doors built, but realize now that we should have terminated the agreement early on when he purposely brought the material we specifically told him we did not want."

Quality, availability, and service are the backbone of this company. We can handle all your construction needs from basement remodeling, additions, new home builds, bathroom remodels to kitchen overhauls. We handle a variety of small jobs as well. Check us out on Facebook or at our website and Brawnybuilders.com see how we might be able to help you.

"Homeowner here... I can't properly explain how absolutely thrilled we are with the work that Bronson and the Brawny Builders have done with our lake cottage. Last summer, we started with a plan to simply paint the exterior. But the project slowly unfolded into something much larger. Bronson is not just a general contractor - he became a close and trusted partner throughout the entire project. He is full of creative and thoughtful ideas that enhanced the project at every step. He provided us with constant and detailed communication. His team worked with us to make sure that every detail was right. Here are a couple of examples where Bronson was able to improve the design or save cost: ** We did not want to expand the footprint of the house and add that cost, but we could not figure out how to layout everything we wanted. Bronson cleverly reused an old set of concrete stairs as the foundation for a washer/dryer stack. It was a great solution that worked out fantastic. ** We had wanted to add a half bath for years, but Bronson figured out a way to add a FULL bath. In addition, the new bathroom was connected (jack and jill style) to the main bedroom to create a master suite. It only cost one additional door, but it is now WAY beyond what we imagined. ** We originally wanted to build a deck on the front of the house, but Bronson helped to create a design for a covered porch with vaulted ceilings and a clever lower surround that blended with the lake environment. ** We found a number of structural issues with the old house during demolition. Bronson developed very clever and cost-effective ways to resolve floor, wall and joist issues. ** During each phase of the construction, Bronson developed thoughtful and clever touches. The lofted garage included an old second floor door for ventilation, and Bronson designed a design the new door that retained some of the prior feeling with a new and fresh update. ** We wanted to retain some of the historical feel to the interior, and Bronson cleverly retained some of the original paneling without feeling overwhelming. He framed the wall to make it a focal point without looking old. It is one of my favorite parts of the house. The lake cottage has been in our extended family for almost 50 years. It has been a great retreat for us, but it is now a proper home with personality and functionality to match. This project has literally transformed the house. We would highly recommend Bronson and Brawny Builders for any remodeling project. We were lucky to find them."

Family owned and operated since 1944, Wallside sells directly to the homeowner, manufacturing and installing its own products. With a factory/showroom located in Taylor, Mich., the vinyl window manufacturer services two thirds of the lower peninsula of Michigan and northwest portions of Ohio.

"Had a couple windows installed on Tues. June 20th. The screen on one was ripped, the installer said they would put a order in right away and have it out this week. There was no signoff's on work. Some of the caulk jobs around the windows are a little sub-par for my liking. Not the best quality work. Called the office for clarification on when my screen would be here this week. They had no knowledge of it, and it had to be ordered. Now it'll be July 8th before they can get out here. Had used their competitor (Hansons) for my last house. The comparison between the two is much different. Will probably go back to Hansons for the rest of the house here."

Wood stairs and railings repairs FAQs

Hiring a professional to refinish your wood stairs costs an average of 20% to 30% of the total project cost. While this adds to your budget, it's essential for preserving your staircase's integrity and safety. A certified expert can complete refinishing a 10-tread staircase in about two hours, providing a flawless finish that boosts your home's appeal and value.

The time it takes to refinish stairs depends on whether you do it yourself or hire a professional. A professional team can finish the core work in approximately two hours, while a DIY project may take up to a week due to careful sanding, drying, and sealing. Hiring a pro ensures the job is done efficiently and with high-quality results.
