"My elderly mom's 40+year old kitchen was in desperate need of repairs and a new look. The issue came to a head when the kitchen floor started to buckle, fortunately surfacing while I was visiting my mom. I live abroad so finding the right person who could both deal with the issues and guide my mom through the entire process was critical. After meeting Sobi, I felt much more comfortable leaving my mom with his careful and skilled hands in charge. Initially my mom agreed only to only repair the most needful but because Sobi made my mom feel so comfortable and was able to quickly gain her confidence (and mine) she decided it was time for the kitchen to be fully restored. Sobi helped in every aspect, from securing permits to going with my mom to make selections, to answering her repeat questions, all while also lifting her mood (despite all the disruptions that come with a full remodel)- he provided an end to end service par excellence. There was good transparency on all costs and communication was clear at every step. The kitchen looks beautiful and my mom is most satisfied. A needle in haystack experience : ) and shame I live abroad as I have a kitchen that could use his craftsmanship."

"I used HomeAdvisor to find a contractor for our outdoor kitchen and was blown away. I found a highly rated pro with tons of great reviews. The builder helped design everything—grill, sink, stonework, and lighting. Finished ahead of schedule and under budget. Couldn’t be happier!"

"Paul and Vicki with Cunningham Construction are miracle workers and true masters of their craft! We had previously used them for another renovation project in our East Bay home. The results were fantastic and we received countless compliments from real estate agents, neighbors and potential buyers when we put our home on the market. In fact, we actually sold our home much higher than even larger sized houses in our neighborhood. Throughout the renovation process, we were so impressed and spoiled with their expertise, professionalism, honesty, patience and amazing personalities, that we refused to work with any other contractor except Cunningham Construction for the renovation of our South Bay home. From ceiling to floor, Paul and Vicki fully constructed a new kitchen, living/dining room, bedroom and two bathrooms on the first floor of our house all from wood studs and a concrete foundation. Before our very eyes, the dark 1970's nightmare that used to be our bottom floor was transformed into a beautiful and efficient/functional space that will serve our guests and potential renters for years to come. At the end of each day (as customary for Paul/Vicki), we were provided a thorough update on everything completed that day as well as plans for the next day -- followed by a thorough clean-up of the area. We always felt completely informed throughout the entire process and, unlike other contractors, 100% of their time and attention was fully dedicated to us for the duration of our project. Paul/Vicki were able to address all of our questions and concerns and even help provide us many options to keep our costs as low as possible. Estimates were detailed and thorough, and every aspect of the job met and exceeded our specification demands. All work was performed to existing code and numerous permit inspections were performed throughout the job due to its size. Even the inspectors with the city commented on how flawless their work was, especially compared to most other jobs that they see. Therefore, we are extremely pleased and have full confidence and complete peace of mind in our final product. If you are looking to hire a contractor who you can trust to perform the BEST work possible for your biggest home/business investment(s), look no further. You absolutely won't regret hiring Cunningham Construction!"

"Heath Stairworks did a great job on our stairway. They added a beautiful hand rail and iron spindles. They listened to what we had in mind, made suggestions, and it turned out exactly how we wanted it. I would definitely use them again."

The design they came up with is amazing, The pergolas and the outdoor fireplace is our favorite part. We enjoy grilling outside and having family gatherings and parties more than ever now. Thanks to Bayside Builders- just what we were looking for!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.

Most landscape timbers are 8 feet long, but some are also available in 10-foot and 12-foot lengths. Choose the length that will allow you to install landscape timbers using the least amount of cutting to fit. Shorter timbers will allow you to more easily create angles and shorter plant bed sides.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.
