"Thanksgiving of 2019, I had a house fire and we hired Steve Walden as the contractor to do a complete renovation. At the beginning of the process, we should have immediately fired him. He was not truthful and his employees told us but we did not listen. Our floors are buckling, the temporary electrical pole is still in our yard, the top part of the electrical box is exposed, the french doors were not installed properly and they used different screws to mount the doors. One of our AC units stopped working. We called Mainline Heating and Air only to find out that they were stealing power from the unit to use for a plug they installed. Now the plug does not work. A part of my roof is leaking. The tub they installed is leaking at the bottom, Sheetwork work is horrible. So many issues from calk to paint. I am using all platforms so people can be cautious before hiring this company. They had trash in my yard and the employees act in the house and left food on the floor. I even had to complain because an employee used the bathroom and left stains on my new toilet. I wish I could upload pictures to show the final work. My complaints will not stop here, but I am using every platform so consumers can be aware of this company. His crew finally left my property around Sept 2020 and the work is still incomplete. Update 6-9-2021 ----Walden Home Improvements came back and corrected all the issues I was having!"

"Jose came out promptly to look at our disintegrating retaining wall and spent alot of time looking and measuring and answering questions. He gave us an estimate and began working right away. The work was excellent and he was always available to answer any questions during the process. We will definitely call him again the next time we have any work to be done."

"Mr Webb's work is very good and my wife and I are very pleased with his work, cost and work time.  We have used Complete Home Repair for several small repairs this year and have always been very pleased.  He shows up when he says he will and gets the job done.  So when we planned this latest project, we did not hesitate to call them and in fact did not even think about any one else.
We have in mind some other projects around here and will certainly call them first.  We found Complete Home Repair on Angie's list and have even found others for HVAC etc.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

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.
