"Excellent. Used Shamus' business several times during the process of self building a house. He always arrived prepared with the tools needed and an obvious thought out plan regarding the work to be performed . He was both knowledgeable and efficient and performed top quality workmanship including metal siding install, window install, basic plumbing, stair railing in home, deck building, tongue and groove wood ceiling, and outdoor railing at end of deck. His work was worth every penny paid. Alan Frederick Franklin, NC"

"After receiving the report from a structural engineer, I began interviewing contractors to do the recommended repairs. The more contractors I interviewed the more questions and confusion I had. Who understood the core issues, could explain them to me, could push back against the structural engineer for clarifying data? Who could I trust? I turned to a trusted contractor who'd worked on a neighbor's house. He volunteered to review the proposals I'd received. (The repairs I needed were not in his line of work.) None of the proposals had the detail he'd expect. He recommended Andrew Roby Contractors. <br /> <br />My first call was a day or two before Christmas and I got a prompt response. Although away for the holiday, the representative worked with my deadline (and I with his vacation) and we scheduled an appointment for later that week. Throughout the project, I worked with with project manager Drew Devine. New in his career, Drew was professional, polite, articulate, motivated, attentive, thorough and persevering. He honored my many questions and sought answers. Still learning, he asked if he could bring a construction veteran to look at the house and consult. Ron joined him on a visit. His experience and unhurried ease put me at ease. Ron explained what could be explained and acknowledged what couldn't. With a careful choice of words he confirmed my concerns about the structural engineer's work. Ron's professionalism in acknowledging seemingly unprofessional behavior told me I was dealing with someone ethical. That spoke volumes. <br /> <br />The icing on the cake came a day or so later. At Drew's recommendation I called a different structural engineer, Marcel Papineau, to talk about having his company create working drawings. Marcel asked who had come to the house and what the issues were. I told him I was working with Drew Devine and he'd brought a seasoned construction guy named Ron to look over his shoulder. Marcel sounded puzzled, paused, then explained, "Joan, do you know who Ron is? He's president of the company." I like that neither Drew nor Ron traded on Ron's status but rather focused on his experience, which was what was needed. I like that Ron supported Drew as the lead in the contracting relationship. That's leadership. <br /> <br />Looking back, I realize how taxing I must have been with my ongoing questions and time-consuming interest in details. Yet Drew and his colleagues were unfailingly respectful and patient. Andrew Roby Co. is not inexpensive. The way I see it, I paid extra for fine construction results and pro-active communication in the process. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />"

"This is a vacation home and we were not able to be there during the construction. Contractor provided excellent communication with pictures as we proceeded through the work. We were able to make decisions effectively regarding required scope modifications without being on site.   <br> <br>Project went very well. High quality work with very tight finishes with absolutely no homeowner supervision. Complete and thorough clean up. Very professional job.  <br> <br>For someone like us living 350 miles from our mountain home, a relationship with a quality contractor that you trust is a very important service and Home Services has clearly earned our respect. "

"We built a new home with CHI Construction. The experience was wonderful from the beginning of discussions to the finished product. The staff was very professional and timely. Calvin provided creative ideas that we would not have thought of like stamped concrete, a sealed crawlspace and others We have received so many compliments on our home and I still feel that Calvin is a phone call away if I have r questions or concerns. Would highly recommend CHI and all of their staff! <br /> We will definitely call them back for any improvements or other construction needs in the future! <br /> <br />"

"Rainman Gutters came out and provided an estimate for removing the existing Gutter Guard gutter system from my house including downspouts. They also provided me with a quote to install new gutter covers. The quote for new 5"gutters, downspouts and covers was fantastic. The two gentlemen that came out to do the removal and install were on-time, polite, professional and detailed oriented.The gutters and covers were properly installed and sloped correctly using a level. Fascia damage from gutter guard system was repaired and flashed properly prior to installing new gutters. All scrap and trash was cleaned up immediately after installation. This was a fantastic company to do business with!"

FAQs for major home repair (general contractor) projects in Highlands, NC

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.
