A typical residential foundation takes 1-3 days depending on size and weather. We need dry conditions and temperatures above 40 degrees for proper curing. We schedule pours in advance so you're not waiting weeks, and we coordinate inspections so your project keeps moving. Foundation work sets the timeline for everything else, so we don't rush it.

Yes. We pull permits for roofing, foundation work, and structural projects where required. It's part of the service because unpermitted work causes issues when you sell or file insurance claims. We know what Barron County inspectors look for and we build to code so inspections pass the first time.

We can get close, but concrete changes color as it ages, so perfect matching is tough. If your existing concrete is older, there will be some difference even with color additives. We recommend either doing the full surface or creating a clean edge so it looks intentional, not patched.

Most residential roofs run $6,000-$12,000 depending on size, pitch, and material. A simple ranch costs less than a two-story with valleys and chimneys. We give you a written estimate after measuring your roof, and that price includes tear-off, new shingles, and cleanup. No hidden costs for disposal or extra layers.

We require a deposit to schedule and start work, then progress payments as we complete phases. For larger projects like full remodels or new construction, we can break it into thirds: start, midpoint, and completion. We don't offer in-house financing, but we can work with your timeline if you're arranging your own loan or line of credit.

Hairline cracks are normal in concrete, but cracks wider than a quarter-inch, horizontal cracks, or cracks with separation need evaluation. If doors stick, floors slope, or you see water seeping in, that's foundation movement. We'll look at it and tell you if it's something to fix now or just monitor. Most people wait too long and end up paying more.

Stamped concrete costs less, installs faster, and doesn't have weeds growing between pieces. Pavers can settle unevenly and need occasional releveling, but they're easier to repair if one section gets damaged. For Wisconsin weather, stamped concrete holds up better as long as it's sealed every few years. We've done both and most people go with stamped for the value.
