Grit & Grain Renovations

I don’t need to sell you on my work.

The people I’ve worked for already have.

Here’s what customers are saying:

“Every cut is clean, every post is perfectly set, and the finished result looks as good as it functions… built solid, level, and made to last.”

“Polite, professional, upfront with cost, and very affordable.”

“Top notch work quality… from remodeling to fencing, shelving, and a front porch. I’ll use Grit & Grain again.”

That’s the standard I hold on every job:
No shortcuts. No guesswork. Just solid, dependable work done right.

Finished up Stage 1 on a set of horse stalls and I’m proud of how this one turned out.

This wasn’t just about putting boards together — this was about building something solid, level, and built to last in a working barn environment. Every post set right, every cut clean, everything aligned the way it should be.

In this kind of setting, durability and safety matter. Animals don’t care about shortcuts — and neither do I.

Clear communication, showing up on time, and doing the job right the first time — that’s the standard I hold myself to on every project.

We’ll be moving into Stage 2 soon to finish these out with screened-in windows and final touches.

If you need quality carpentry done right, feel free to reach out.

On behalf of contractors everywhere:

Please take the time to think through your project—and your budget—before reaching out to a contractor.

If you have something in mind, do a little research first. Understand the general cost range so you know what you’re stepping into.

Time, travel, and estimates all cost money. In many cases, even receiving a lead costs the contractor money before they ever meet you.

To give some perspective:
A large deck (around 50x50) can cost roughly $75,000+ with pressure-treated materials and $200,000+ with composite, depending on design and features.

If that’s not within your budget, that’s completely okay—but it’s better to know that upfront before scheduling estimates.

Respecting that process helps both you and the contractor avoid wasted time and unnecessary costs.

Clear expectations lead to better results for everyone.

New Construction Attic Ladder Installation

Estimate/Cost: $400

Job Description:
After acquiring all necessary materials, I carefully identified and marked the optimal location in the ceiling for the attic ladder installation.

Without direct visibility into the attic space, I began by cutting a small inspection opening to accurately locate the rafters and ensure proper placement.

Once confirmed, I measured and positioned the attic ladder between the rafters, then cut the sheetrock to create a precise opening. The ladder was properly fitted into the ceiling and prepared for installation.

I installed temporary support braces and added additional framing as needed to securely support the unit. The attic ladder was set into place, leveled, and anchored using bolts, with shims applied to ensure a tight and stable fit.

After removing the support braces, I verified smooth operation of the ladder, adjusted and cut the legs for proper ground contact, and installed the protective feet.

To complete the project, I installed trim around the attic opening to provide a clean, finished appearance.

The installation was completed with full functionality, structural integrity, and attention to detail.

The client was highly satisfied with the final result and overall quality of the work.
