A Professional General Contractor Will Handle All of Your Construction Projects

Homeowners have many factors to consider before hiring a general contractor to manage their home improvement projects. You want a general contractor who has acquired the proper professional credentials, as well as presents an estimate that fits within your home improvement project. The general contractor overseeing your project should be a responsive communicator which means quickly returning emails, phone calls and text messages. A highly-rated general contractor such as Mares & Dow also meets every project deadline.

One factor that does not receive as much attention, but it should, refers to a general contractor’s versatility. In other words, you should search for a general contractor who has the skills and experience to complete different home improvement projects. Versatility saves you both money and time.

Mares & Dow specializes in completing four different types of home improvement projects.

Skylights

Installing skylights can immediately increase the value of your home for both aesthetic and functional reasons. A skylight contractor such as Marex & Dow installs skylights to lower your energy bills, which also reduces your home’s carbon footprint. More sunlight in a room highlights certain features such as plants and artwork. Natural light is known for improving the mood of anyone who steps into a room, as well as encouraging the circulation of fresh air when opened.

Retaining Wall

After enhancing the appearance of the interior of your house with skylights, the time has come to go outdoors for the completion of three home improvement projects. The first project is to build one or more retaining walls. The functional benefit of a retaining wall is to prevent soil erosion and stop heavy rain from entering the lower floor of your home. Aesthetically, one or more retaining walls create visual appeal by dividing sections of your property.

Siding

Mares & Dow also specializes in completing siding installation projects. Siding helps cover up defects on the exterior of your home, but the material is more of a preventive addition to your home. The highest quality of siding prevents moisture from degrading the exterior of your home. It also prevents pests from gaining access to small gaps in the areas where the side of your house meets the roof. Rugged siding absorbs the punishment delivered by hail and tree limbs to maintain the curb appeal of your home.

Outdoor Living Space

Homeowners who have run out of space inside their houses turn to outdoor living spaces to create more room for guests. Pergolas, gazebos, and pavilions represent three types of outdoor living spaces that increase the square footage of usable space for your home. An outdoor kitchen gives you more room to cook meals for a large number of guests. An investment in an outdoor living space can generate a return in home value that doubles, triples, or even quadruples the initial investment.

Benefit From the Versatility of Mares & Dow

Hiring a versatile general contractor like Mares & Dow can save you both time and money. You can save money by bundling home improvement services and you save time by contacting just one contractor.
