"We have used a good amount of companies before, and continued to get the same result; no communication, always above budget, and never within the time frame discussed. Trevor and his team were the exact opposite of this. We never had any issues with communication, price, or time. We also have three small children and our project was fairly large. Trevor and his team took great care to make sure our children were comfortable, and most importantly, safe. 10 out of 10 will absolutely hire again."

"After purchasing an Angie's List Deal, I received the measuring kit in the mail promptly. The template and instructions provided to draw my split table top and each of the leaves were easy to use and understand. I mailed the completed materials and received the table pads very quickly. The table splits in the middle to allow insertion of up to 3 additional leaves. The table also has 2 drop leaves. That's 7 pads. All fit perfectly. I have used them on the table for family parties (not every day) and they're durable and built to last. I keep them in the box they arrived in to protect them when not in use. These are a worthwhile investment."

"Highly recommend!! I researched several construction contractors for 2 months prior to relocating into our home, and I am truly grateful I made the decision to hire A+ Custom Remodeling, LLC, to manage the various and multiple tasks I knew I wanted completed. A+ Custom Remodeling, LLC. did not disappoint as a general, multi-tasking contractor. If Mr. Roman Mcbrayer (owner and founder) could not complete a task himself, he knew exactly who to contact to get the job done in a timely manner. I hired A+ Custom Remodeling, LLC. for the following: * Repaint the interior walls of my home. * Install a backyard fence. * Install electrical work, to include additional outlets in & out of the home. * Install a utility sink in our laundry room. * Install an elevated, extended concrete driveway with building pad. * Instrumental in delegating an A/C repairman to service our air conditioner. * And our biggest project - Convert an open wooden deck into a large 2-tier, enclosed porch with covered grill station. Not only was Mr. Mcbrayer knowledgeable and professional, but his crew was just as professional, respectful and very hard-working, possessing the abilities and knowledge to complete any task successfully with excellent communication skills as a team. Their strength and stamina to endure peak-summer heat temperatures with every project they were asked to execute was phenomenal. More importantly, Mr. Mcbrayer (A+ Custom Remodeling, LLC.) can keep track of everything going on and sets priorities to get things done very efficiently and effectively. A reliable and skilled business owner who ensures completed projects quickly with great results."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project.
