Chimneys
Having a fireplace installed can be simple if you choose a gas insert, or more complex for a traditional wood-burning option. For a traditional fireplace, a professional mason builds the chimney and hearth, including the chimney foundation and stack. Then fireplace installers put in the firebox and liner. Maintaining the fireplace includes cleaning the firebox of ash and buildup, yearly professional chimney cleaning, and repair of any broken or damaged masonry. For gas fireplace installation, the contractor can cut out the area for the insert, run electric and gas lines, and build a vent. Then the insert can be installed. Maintaining a gas fireplace involves cleaning the glass front and trim, checking for damage around the fireplace or vent, and having a professional repair it if needed.

Retaining Walls
Retaining walls can be helpful for preventing soil erosion, improving drainage, and adding interest to landscaping. The type of wall depends on your goals, the type of soil, and what will be above and below the wall. Retaining walls can be made of stones, bricks, steel, or treated wood.
Finishing
Choosing attractive wall finishing helps add interest and style to your home. There are multiple types of finishing, including a textured wall finish, wallpaper, 3D designs, cladding such as shiplap or stone veneers, or even mirrors. Finishing is a great way to create an accent wall or express your unique style throughout your home.
Masonry
Masonry involves using bricks or stones and mortar to build walls, chimneys, and more. Over time the materials may break down, and you'll need to hire a professional to repair the structure. Masonry repair consists of filling cracks in the wall, repairing leaning walls, and replacing protruding bricks. It's important to address any masonry issues right away so they don't compromise the structure of your home.
Concrete
Concrete walks and patios provide an easy-to-use, non-slip surface for guests on your property. Concrete needs less maintenace than other materials and is extremely durable, and stamped concrete can boost curb appeal by imitating the appearance of other materials. With a concrete patio you can avoid the frequent staining and sealing that wood decks need, and installation is quick and affordable.
Decks
An outdoor deck adds function and value to your home. There are many styles of decks, including attached, wrap-around, detached, multi-tier, and a swimming pool or hot tub deck. Decking can be made of wood, composite materials, or PVC. Deck building can be complex depending on the materials and style, so it's a good idea to hire a professional.
Handyman
Some contractors offer handyman services, giving you the confidence that a professional is taking care of your home repair needs, such as drywall repair, painting, gutter cleaning, installation of doors or accessibility aids, and more. Before you have a handyman do specialized work, like handling water damage, structural repair, or electrical, be sure they are properly qualified and insured.
Carpenty
There are multiple types of home carpentry, which involves using wood to build everything from framing to cabinets to small decorative details. A carpenter can help you with custom woodworking, finish carpentry, cabinetry, new wall construction, and more.
Additions
Home additions can add significant livable space to your property, but they are not DIY projects. Professionals can help you with bedroom or sun room additions, adding a floor to your home, or indoor patio additions. Be sure you choose an experienced contractor with appropriate licensing and insurance to get the job done right.
New Construction
New construction can be a great way to get the exact home layout and materials you want, and it's also a good way to add to your livable property by building an addition. Single-family home construction allows you to work directly with professionals to pick out every detail of your new property, and remodeling uses new construction to improve or add to your home.
