We look forward to working with you!
"Honeycomb helped save our house. As they were replacing our deck, they discovered rot and quickly removed and replaced all the bad material. They also discovered that we had a termite infestation. The issue was in the structure of the house. They assured us everything would be fine and efficiently dispatched all the rot and talked us through next steps with detailed recommendations, involving other contractors. The additional charge to remove the rot was minimal and I would have gladly paid 10x for the security of having a safe house. And just look at how beautifully it turned out. The photos really don't do it justice, when you get to sit out there enjoying a coffee in the morning or actually having a family gathering. It is such a game changer meeting space. Also, and it might seem like a little thing, but its the details that matter. It was really hard for me to get on my deck as a physically handicapped person. Taylor made it easy for me to go outside alone. I love you guys 11/10"

"Responsive. Respectful. Reliable. MRC Construction did an outstanding job with my new siding and gutters! This was my first big home improvement project. I set a budget, began the research and ultimately requested bids from four suppliers. MRC was the most competitive, offered the product selection and warranty I was looking for and their schedule fit mine. Rodrigo is professional and patient and answered all of my questions. Marco managed the onsite work flawlessly. From the first phone call to the last walk through, MRC Construction is FIVE stars.

Russels Contracting is committed to excellence in every aspect of our business. We uphold a standard of integrity bound by fairness, honesty, and personal responsibility. Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.
"Once again and with the highest confidence, we hired Russell's Contracting to convert our back entrance into a more open, useful mudroom. As promised, they arrived on time on the expected date and started by sealing off the back entrance for dust. The demolition of the closet was first done, and then the rehab began. I was amazed at the level of detail necessary to make the new mudroom perfect. From fixing the ceiling to installing new walls, taping and sanding, painting, new baseboards, and moving the overhead light, it was fun to watch. Colby was professional, exacting, efficient, clean, and asked all the right questions to ensure we were happy with the result. The new mudroom is exactly what we wanted. In addition, we asked Russell's to help us figure out how to make our open staircase to the second floor safer. Keith, Colby, and Max designed and installed a custom-built, stair-to-ceiling railing system that looks great and provides the necessary safety we were looking for. They also made it removable to accommodate large objects up and down stairs. The amount of time they spent was crazy, and the amount of math they did to ensure it was plumb and solid was above and beyond our expectations. My house was built in 1933, and this railing system looks like it could have been original to the house. It is a masterpiece. Everyone at Russell's Contracting we have met and who has worked on our house has been exceptional. You can stop scrolling for contractors; call Russell's."

Major home repairs (general contractor) FAQs
Yes, you can find out if your house is retrofitted by checking for clear signs of secure foundation anchoring. Your home is retrofitted if foundation plates are fastened to structural wood with visible bolts and connectors. Additionally, a qualified home inspector or checking with your local building department can confirm that seismic updates have been completed, ensuring your property meets necessary safety standards.
Your house's ability to withstand an earthquake depends on its structural design and seismic upgrades. Strong construction methods and proper retrofitting help your home resist higher magnitude forces. Factors like your home's age, quality of materials, and secure foundation connections contribute to its overall resilience. A professional structural evaluation is essential to confirm the level of protection built into your home.
You can't completely earthquake-proof your home, but you can significantly improve its resilience against seismic events. Reinforcing your structure by upgrading your foundation, securely bolting the house, and fastening heavy items in place can dramatically reduce potential damage. Professional seismic retrofitting and regular maintenance by certified experts enhance safety and protect your property during an earthquake.
Homeowners’ insurance does not always cover earthquake damage. Standard policies protect against disasters such as fires and hurricanes but can exclude damage caused by earthquakes and flooding. In regions with seismic activity, purchasing dedicated earthquake insurance at an average annual cost of $800 to $1,300 is essential to cover structural repairs and unforeseen expenses. Consult your insurance provider to fully understand your coverage options and ensure adequate protection.
No, earthquake insurance does not cover all damage incurred during a seismic event. It is designed to cover certain repair costs—such as structural damage from ground shifting—but excludes damage from secondary effects like flooding or long-term degradation. Review your policy carefully and consult with your insurance agent to confirm the full scope of coverage, and explore additional relief programs if necessary.
