For most Americans, their home is their most valued--and valuable--possession. It stands to reason that great caution should be taken before entrusting a home to a contractor. Many reasons exist to make a change to a home: a growing family, outdated bathrooms, an inadequate kitchen, universal design changes to allow staying in one's home longer in life, increasing the value of a home, or just a change in lifestyle.
With changes, comes the need for careful decisions. In the past decade, state laws have helped clear the field of shady contractors. The latest Gallup Poll didn't list contractors in the top least trusted professionals, but there was a time when contractors were on that annual list. Thankfully, a lot has changed.

In this era of instant communication--email, instant messages, Facebook, Twitter, text messages--one form of communication that takes effort, thought and time, is the personal letter. While the final payment on a project keeps L&M Construction's business engine running, it's the letters of appreciation that fuels Jim's enthusiasm and love for his work.
Design/build is a process where an entire remodeling or new construction project--from the initial design concepts and budgets to permits, regulations and zoning laws to actual construction and final walk through--are organized and performed by a single entity, a single point of responsibility.
In past decades, the traditional approach for construction projects consists of the appointment of a designer on one side, and the appointment of a contractor on the other side, typically an architect and a general contractor.The design-build system changes the traditional sequence of work. So, why is this important to a homeowner?

Every cook loves a well-appointed kitchen. A great kitchen makes cooking fun and provides a welcoming space for family members to gather. But there is another reason to invest in upgrading your dated kitchen: The return on investment (ROI) for your home. The ROI will depend on how your spend your remomeling dollars and the strength of the housing market at the time of sale in your particular area.
A bathroom remodel is a very personal endeavor and is as much about comfort and pampering amenities as form or function. Along with a kitchen remodel, a bathroom remodel is by far one of the best investments a homeowner can make, and the return on investment (ROI) is an important consideration.

Adding space in the form of an addition is a popular remodel. Home additions come in two varieties: those that go up, and those that go out. When space, lot size, zoning restrictions, and cost are an issue, or when it's an aesthetic choice, a second or even a third story addition is just the ticket.

I would title this - You Get What You Pay For. I can't say enough good things about Rick & Jim of L&M. This was a fairly large project - they tore down our three-season porch and built a two-story addition. They were always incredibly respectful of the rest of our home, keeping it clean, minimizing disruption to our lives and even picking up the work site each day. They were meticulous from the planning stage to the excavation through the construction and right down to getting the putty colors right (4 different colors) in the sliding door threshold! The level of communication, detail and care

Due to unforseen circumstances, I had to turn a 2 car garage into an In law apartment. Seeing how I had used L and M a few years back when a tree completely demolished the deck I called and talked to Rick. From the very beginning of the planning board meeting to the last finishing touches I could not be happier. The itemized contract was right on point. Timelines were fantastic. All the sub contractors were as professional as Land M. I can't say enough about the guys. Their work is truly amazing !
