"Excellent! He trimmed up the easement so the grass wasn't so bothersome. But most importantly, Joseph put a new switch in the kitchen for the overhead light, then a whole new light because it was more than the switch that was faulty. I trust Joseph explicitly; my home is 89 years old and these were bound to need to be replaced."

"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!"

"Talk about perfection! Lisa was exceptionally prompt in responding to my request for a quote and Jay and his partner far exceeded my expectations. It was several jobs in one: they panted a difficult cathedral ceiling and walls, a bedroom ceiling and exterior painting on eves, the underside of a carport, a shed and window frames. I couldn't be happier with their fabulous work."

"Josh responded to an unusual metal coordinated fence idea I had. Josh and Riley figured it out and built it. Very pleased with their work. I have already hired him for a future job. They were prompt, respectful, and conscientious. I highly recommend country strong fabrication!"

"SavOn/Ivan came out immediately and tested the area in question. I had mold in my dining room ceiling, not airborne thank God; but mold none the less needing remediation. SavOn completed the remediation in about 4 days and were very thorough, professional and attentive. Taylor in the office and Ivan in the field provided excellent service. SavOn was a little pricey but not as astronomical as the other companies. My project is not yet completed due to a lack of funds on my part but the cosmetic repairs will be completed soon and I'll keep you posted on the progress. Angel A"

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."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

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. 

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.
