"We recently had Cactus Nectar LLC build a retaining wall and install a new wrought iron fence in our backyard, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome! The quality of work is absolutely fantastic! Not only is the fence beautifully crafted, but the retaining wall has also transformed our space, enhancing the view of the Catalina Mountains. It’s incredible how much more usable space we have now. The team was friendly, professional, efficient, and really listened to our needs. We highly recommend their services to anyone looking to make similar improvements to their property. A job well done!"

"Thank you Jay Morales and his assistant, from Improvement LLC, a family-owned business. Both were friendly, courteous and respectful of us and our property. Before starting any work Jay took the time to explain the process and answer any questions. We needed painting of our badly peeling fascia boards/eaves and storage shed. Jay and Roxanne are dedicated professionals and worked hard to get the job done. They paid attention to detail and kept us apprised of their progress. At the beginning we had to make a schedule change and Improvement LLC went above and beyond to accommodate us to meet deadline. Improvement LLC offers varying services. We will call on them for future service. We highly recommend Improvement LLC and its team."

Customers say: Quality work

"Neil is extremely professional, competent, and thorough. He installed a floating wall unit in our Master. Some electrical and wall repair in addition to a complicated assembly of the unit was required. He showed up on time, finished as promised and was meticulous, cleaning up and removing all debris. Reasonable quote and even followed up to make sure the cable company had no problems with the TV hook up he provided. We are very impressed with his work ethic and will hire him in the future as well as recommend him to our friends."

I plan on hiring Terrell developed for my next project. Would highly recommend Bill for any home remodeling projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.
