    Does Your House Need a House Lift? & DARE TO CHOOSE: Goodfellas vs. The Godfather

    Does Your House Need a House Lift? & DARE TO CHOOSE: Goodfellas vs. The Godfather

    Welcome back to the Fusing Topics With The Mikulka Group Podcast with hosts Pete Mikulka and Johnny Mikulka! You can WATCH this episode on our YouTube Channel!

    On today’s episode, we’re talking about House Lifts!

    Ever heard of a House Lift? Chances are, if you live within a mile of the shore, you probably have.

    Back in 2012, Superstorm Sandy brought awareness to the importance of lifting houses out of the floodplain. If you have a house near the beach, this may be something to consider.

    How house lifting works:


    We get a crane
    We put iron bars under the house
    We cut the house off from the foundation
    We hoist the house up with the crane
    We put cribbing underneath the house
    We sit the house on the cribbing
    We build the new, elevated foundation around the cribbing
    We lift the house up again
    We set the house down onto the new foundation

    It’s a complex and fascinating process!

    If you’re considering a house lift, make sure to give Mikulka Contracting a call at 855-MIKULKA!

    At The Mikulka Group, our Contracting businesses focuses on the following for both commercial and residential spaces:


    Additions

    We are all encompassing when it comes to construction contracting!

    No matter what your home renovation goals are, The Mikulka Group and Mikulka Contracting are here to help! We’ve got the tools, team and resources to make your house dreams come to life!

    Switching over to Johnny’s Music and Movie Corner, Johnny is forced to participate in his own game of DARE. TO. CHOOSE! But this time… He has to choose between Goodfellas vs. The Godfather. Johnny’s worst nightmare scenario!

    Which do YOU choose? Do you agree with Johnny? What other suggestions do you have for future DARE TO CHOOSE? Let us know down below in the comments or by giving us a call at 855-MIKULKA!

    Oh yeah, and if you need electrical or construction contracting work done anywhere in Central Jersey, we can do that too.

    How Much Will A Home Renovation Cost? & DARE TO CHOOSE: Apocalypse Now vs. Full Metal Jacket

    How Much Will A Home Renovation Cost? & DARE TO CHOOSE: Apocalypse Now vs. Full Metal Jacket

    Welcome back to the Fusing Topics With The Mikulka Group Podcast with hosts Pete Mikulka and Johnny Mikulka! You can WATCH this episode on our YouTube Channel!

    On today’s episode, we’re talking about residential renovations, and how it might cost YOU!

    At The Mikulka Group, our Contracting businesses focuses on the following for both commercial and residential spaces:


    Additions
    Interior renovations
    Exterior renovations
    Building new houses
    & MORE!

    We are all encompassing when it comes to construction contracting!

    Two services our contracting team can help you with are:


    Interior Renovations: Where the footprint of your home stays the same
    Additions: Where we extend or change the footprint of your home

    What’s the difference though? And maybe more importantly, which is more expensive?

    To put it simply, Pete explains that doing an interior renovation, where the footprint of your home stays the same, is not only much easier - it’s cheaper as well. Once you go outside the footprint, you’re starting to look at zoning permits, flood elevations and other steps/paperwork that make the process a bit more difficult.

    But if you DO have to go outside the footprint - No problem. We can help take care of all the steps and processes you’ll need to undergo for an addition to be properly added to your property.

    No matter what your home renovation goals are, The Mikulka Group and Mikulka Contracting are here to help! We’ve got the tools, team and resources to make your house dreams come to life!

    Switching over to Johnny’s Music and Movie Corner, Johnny and Pete are starting a new segment… DARE. TO. CHOOSE!

    The rules of the game are simple: 2 obviously good movies, songs or bands will be given. Players (mainly Johnny) can only choose ONE!

    In today’s episode, Johnny is forced to choose between the movies “Apocalypse Now” and “Full Metal Jacket.”

    Which do YOU choose? Do you agree with Johnny? What other suggestions do you have for future DARE TO CHOOSE? Let us know down below in the comments or by giving us a call at 855-MIKULKA!

    Oh yeah, and if you need electrical or construction contracting work done anywhere in Central Jersey, we can do that too.

    Whether you’re in need of a Commercial Electrician, a Residential Electrician or Construction Contractors, we’re here for you. We service Monmouth County, Ocean County and all of Central Jersey. Give us a call today at 855-MIKULKA or stop by the office at 275 Route 79, Morganville, NJ.

    How Much Does a Bathroom Renovation Cost? & A Review of Dexter: New Blood

    How Much Does a Bathroom Renovation Cost? & A Review of Dexter: New Blood

    Welcome back to the Fusing Topics With The Mikulka Group Podcast with hosts Pete Mikulka and Johnny Mikulka! You can WATCH this episode on our YouTube Channel!

    On today’s episode, we’re talking about bathroom renovations, and how much a bathroom renovation might cost YOU!

    At The Mikulka Group, our Contracting businesses focuses on the following for both commercial and residential spaces:


    Additions
    Interior renovations
    Exterior renovations
    Building new houses
    & MORE!

    We are all encompassing when it comes to construction contracting!

    One specific service our contracting team can help you with is a complete bathroom renovation.

    …But how much is that going to cost?

    While we’ll need to take all your personal needs and wants into consideration, Pete says there’s one major decision that will drive the final cost:

    Are we rearranging the plumbing fixtures, such as the toilet, shower and sink?

    If we’re doing a simple sprucing up of your bathroom, but leaving the fixtures in their original places, you’re looking at a renovation cost of about $10,000. If we’re moving where the toilet, shower, sink and entrance to the bathroom is, the price will significantly increase.

    Other factors that will determine the cost of your bathroom renovation include: Flooring, type of shower you want, type of tub you want, etc.

    No matter what your bathroom goals are, The Mikulka Group and Mikulka Contracting are here to help! We’ve got the tools, team and resources to make your bathroom dreams come to life!

    Switching over to Johnny’s Music and Movie Corner, Pete and Johnny are reviewing the new Dexter series, Dexter: New Blood!

    Pete being a long time fan of Dexter… Is not impressed. Johnny, on the other hand, is here to give the new series a try!

    Are you a Dexter fan? What do you think of the new series? Let us know down below in the comments or by giving us a call at 855-MIKULKA!

    Why Do I Need A Home Generator Service Plan? & Iconic Pioneers of Old School Country Music

    Why Do I Need A Home Generator Service Plan? & Iconic Pioneers of Old School Country Music

    Interested in winning CASH prizes or a BRAND NEW Home Generator? Make sure to read about our CASH CALL contest with 106 THUNDER below!

    THIS WEEK’S EPISODE:

    Welcome back to the Fusing Topics With The Mikulka Group Podcast with hosts Pete Mikulka and Johnny Mikulka! You can WATCH this episode on our YouTube Channel!

    On this week's episode, Pete answers the question, “Should I have a service agreement for my generator?” And the answer…. Is YES!

    Pete compares a home generator to a car, as it’s an internal combustion engine that runs on natural gas.

    If you didn’t drive your car for a year, you’d most likely have troubles starting it up once you go to use it again. The same applies for a generator, which is why it’s important to invest in a service and maintenance plan.

    Another reminder from Pete: Make sure to have a professional, such as someone from The Mikulka Group, come and service your generator (versus doing it yourself)!

    It’s important to make sure your generator is working properly, so you never get left in the dark! Make sure to call us at 855-MIKULKA so our team can service and monitor your generator!

    In the spirit of our CASH CALL contest with country music station 106 THUNDER, Johnny and Pete discuss iconic pioneers of country music, including:


    Conway Twitty
    Patsy Cline
    Hank Williams
    & Others!

    What other Old School Country artists did we miss? Let us know by giving us a call at 855-MIKULKA!

    Oh yeah, and if you need electrical work done anywhere in Central Jersey, we can do that too.

    Whether you’re in need of a Commercial Electrician, a Residential Electrician or Construction Contractors, we’re here for you. We service Monmouth County, Ocean County and all of Central Jersey. Give us a call today at 855-MIKULKA or stop by the office at 275 Route 79, Morganville, NJ.
