Much of my first floor is either carpeted, tiled or covered in a laminated wood floor. Want it all pulled out and replaced with a solid oak wood floor.

My lawn has become brown and muddy from all the snow and water. I need a professional lawn service company to make the grass green again. Any advice, recommendations or rates about TruGreen lawn service or Scotts Lawn service and some organic alternatives?

I need to find someone who knows how to remodel a bathroom. I've never done it before. My current bathroom has a large whirlpool tub, a vanity, a toilet and a shower. Would like something with a cleaner, more modern look.

The new roof needs to withstand the cold and snow of New England winters and mesh with our Mediterranean Villa inspired home. Our hip roof has quite a few dormers and a couple of mostly decorative sections.

Two of the bedrooms will be two-color (two walls one color, two another) and one will be a single color. I'll need the flat-textured ceilings painted white in each room as well.

Water leakage from ice dams has caused mold in my home. Need a company for mold remediation in Massachusetts. Someone who has experience in mold and remediation, especially with toxic black mold! I have heard that it should be done by expert mold removers who have experience in mold abatement.
