This was the third project we’ve done with Master Craft and Design and we couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. Not only did the work include our upstairs bathroom but also considerable work in three bedrooms and refinishing our wood floors.Ed and his crew do great work and I highly recommend them!

Johnsburg identifies structural changes and extensive plumbing or electrical work, and its broader list includes additions, HVAC alterations, decks, fireplaces, and other construction. The Village should review the exact project before work begins.
The Village currently asks for blueprints or drawings to be submitted electronically and provides a building-permit checklist and application. The required level of professional detail depends on the proposed changes.
