Kitchen Remodeling
Ames kitchen remodeling is design-build: custom cabinetry, layout, and the electrical that makes the new counters and lighting actually work. We keep one licensed crew from the drawing through finish so you are not hiring a cabinet installer and a separate electrician. North Ames and South Ames kitchens get that same plan, with a realistic timeline written before demolition.

Bathroom Remodeling
Bathroom remodeling in Ames is full-service wet-room work — finish, fan, GFCI, lighting — not a fixture swap that leaves the rest of the room to you. Older baths and tight Campus Town layouts both need a scope that fits the space you have. We confirm that scope in writing so added tile or a relocated fan is a change order, not a fight at the end.

Electrical Repair & Installation
Electrical repair in Ames is diagnosis first: flickering lights, dead outlets, tripped breakers, switches that have failed. Installation is the planned half — ceiling and vent fans, dimmers, three-way and smart switches, GFCI and USB upgrades. Gilbert and Nevada addresses use the same licensed crew as a house closer to Campus Town.

Emergency Electrical Service
Emergency electrical for Ames is 24/7 because an outage or a burning smell does not wait on the drive from Des Moines to be real. We name the hazard — exposed wiring, a panel that will not reset, damaged wiring — then we come for the fix. If the problem is not electrical, we say so rather than invent work on the visit.

Commercial Electrical Services
Commercial electrical in Ames is restaurants, warehouses, offices, retail, and schools, matching the work we already do across the metro. A shop or office here gets panel, lighting, and device work with an itemized estimate, not a residential punch list stretched to fit. Online estimates apply; the site visit is still what makes a larger panel job honest.

Deck Building & Repair
Deck building and repair in Ames follows the same freeze-thaw beating as the rest of central Iowa. We build custom decks with premium materials and repair the structure, not just the top boards. South Ames and Gilbert lots that live outside in summer need a deck that is framed for that, not a weekend kit that moves underfoot the second season.

Concrete Patios & Walkways
Concrete patios, walks, and garage slabs in Ames crack and scale like every other freeze-thaw town in this territory. We pour and repair after we see access, drainage across the yard, and what the slab has to carry. A number without a site look is how patio jobs miss thickness and joints; we would rather measure than guess.

Siding Installation & Repair
Siding installation and repair in North Ames and South Ames is about keeping water out at the laps, corners, and trim. We install new siding and repair what is still sound, often alongside other exterior work when the written scope says so. Wind and ice do the same damage here as they do closer to Des Moines; the wall details still have to be right.
