My name is Gary Tallman, and I am a semi-retired General Construction Remodeling Contractor of 35 years to Eastern Iowa. We are the home of the perfect install. A few years ago I decided to slow down a little and to simplify things a bit. We did this by narrowing our business advertising focus to primarily market for the repair and replacement of residential and commercial doors, windows, and skylights. It's been a perfect match for me because it takes a full skill set to do this work, and it helps to keep me off the taller ladders..and that makes me a happy craftsman :) I'd like to mention that we chose to honor the community by offering senior and military discounts. D.B.A Cedar Rapids Entry & Window.

"I’ve used this service for three years and my lawn looks worse than it ever has. I wouldn’t leave this review, but unfortunately after being threatened to be taken to small claims court over $68 I feel the need to share my story. I received a letter last fall saying they were switching over to ACH, in order to continue service you had to update your account with ACH info. I thought, great! I don’t want to continue because my lawn looks terrible after 3 years of using them so I won’t update to ACH. Fast forward to spring 2022, someone comes and does first round and leaves an invoice. I email and say I was surprised to see the invoice (since I hadn’t updated to ACH payments) and honestly my lawn is awful and I don’t want the service. They say I had to provide 30 day written notice to cancel. Invoice is still due. I asked someone to come look at my lawn, no one comes. I call them a couple months later because my lawn looks EVEN WORSE if possible.. (huge thistles, weeds of every variety) I tell them I do not feel that I should have to pay this invoice for a service I didn’t expect to receive on top of the fact that 3 years of service has clearly not been effective. I showed pictures since no one would come out.. literally all I get in response is a threat to take me to small claims court if the invoice isn’t paid. Like after all the money I had already paid wasn’t enough, they really want to fight a customer over $68 rather than trying to mend a situation. All in all, they don’t care about you or the service they provide."

The best type of foundation for a house depends on factors like climate, soil conditions, budget, and your home's specific needs. In marshy areas, deep piles driven into bedrock provide stability, whereas in arid climates with high water tables, a slab-on-grade is suitable. Monolithic slab foundations are the most cost-effective, costing $5 to $16 per square foot, as they require less material and labor. Basements work well in areas with low water tables and provide additional living space. Consult with a professional to determine the best foundation type for your project.
When choosing a foundation contractor, it's important to get several estimates, ask for references, and find the best fit for your project. Review each estimate carefully to ensure there are no hidden expenses. The best contractors are communicative and transparent from the start, helping you understand every step of the process. Additionally, verify that the contractor is licensed, insured, and experienced in the type of foundation work you require. Checking online reviews and asking for recommendations from friends or family can also help you make an informed decision.
A well-built concrete foundation can last 80 to 100 years or even longer. The longevity of a foundation depends on several factors, such as soil and weather conditions, quality of construction materials, and proper installation. Signs of foundation damage include sloping floors, bowing walls, doors and windows that don't operate properly, wall cracks, and gaps between walls and ceilings. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs can extend the life of your foundation.
Foundation depth depends mostly on climate, foundation type, and the soil type you’re building on, and can range from almost-surface level to dozens of feet deep. Your pro should know and follow all local and state building requirements. Still, it’s always best to check local requirements yourself to confirm foundation depth requirements.
Most concrete slab foundations are 4 to 6 inches thick. However, heavier homes might require thicker slabs, especially if the slab will support a garage holding several large vehicles and/or machinery. Your needs, budget, and local building codes will impact your slab’s thickness. Be sure to discuss these and other factors with your pro.
