"Jason is the best - I couldn't have asked for a better experience. His tile guy Brian is amazing - a true professional and perfectionist. We also used his plumber David who didn't quit until he got everything working perfectly. Everyone showed up on time as scheduled and they all cared about their work which is pretty hard to find. My daughter just used a horrible contractor that she had to fire - I felt guilty telling her about our great experience!!"

"It took us time to find a contractor. We got over Six quotes only two contractors actually sent us a bid. Ben was very responsive. He sent us the quote within a week from the visit. We were very satisfied with the process. We were always in the know. We have done renovations In the past with contractors and we were always not pleased with not knowing the schedule. We finally found someone we can trust and will definitely be using him again. Thank you again Ben it was a pleasure meeting you and working with you."

"Work went very well. Vince (the person I worked with) gave me a very clear and competitive bid. During the project we stayed in touch by texting each other and when it was finished, Vince texted me pictures of the final project. The job was made more challenging because my mother-in-law has dementia and didn’t understand what was happening. Vince was understanding and handled the situation with care. I really appreciated his sensitivity to situation."

"Arroyo Brothers are experts in every phase of the construction process. They can act as general contractors or specialized craftsmen. We have enjoyed their expertise for 20+ years. They completed a major exterior remodel for us, including cedar shingle siding, construction of 2 new decks, a new roof, and a portico addition. They also completed major interior remodeling including a complete kitchen remodel, bathroom remodel, and bedroom addition. They have remodeled our yard, including the construction of a magnificent flagstone firepit. They have worked with our interior designer to ensure impeccable results. The quality of their work is extraordinary. They are dependable, conscientious and efficient. Once you hire Arroyo Brothers, you will never hire anyone else!"

"From the beginning Ryan was straight forward, honest, had a clear timeline and met all my expectations. As a contractor I'm always nervous when I hire someone else to do work for me. There is always the chance that their workmanship will be poor, they will excessively markup material, fall behind on schedule, disappear after receiving majority of payment and leave the project unfinished. All I have to say about Lovejoy construction is this, his workmanship was exceptional, his prices are fair, he completed our project on time, and had a fair and clear payment schedule. When I have another project I will be calling Lovejoy construction for work."

"Eric took over a partially completed remodeling job. The job
included framing a new floor where there had been a sunken conversation pit,
hanging doors, replacing the old baseboards and completing a wall with new drywall.
His bid was very reasonable and he completed the job quickly and efficiently. I
would use him again and I would definitely recommend him to others.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

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.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

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.
