"Marco is amazing! He went above and beyond to make our home look amazing. He's a genuine guy and fixed things in my home that he noticed needed repairs. He didn't have to, but he did it out of the generosity of his heart. I would highly recommend Marco and will hire him every time I need a repair!"
"I hired Juan to build my garage. He did an excellent job with the framing and overall putting the garage together. Iâ d highly recommend to use him for any carpenter/ handy man work. Juan is very punctual, communicative, and provides a fantastic service."
"I was most impressed with his desire to keep me informed and doing what he said he was going to do when he said he said he was going to do it. He finshed the job in time frame he said he would and the quality was very good and at the price he quoted. I would recommend to anyone."

"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"
"Chad showed up on time. He gave me a fair price. He followed through on what he said he would do, and my deck looks brand new. Honest, fair, hard working, and dependable. I will hire them again."
"Allwyn was super responsive and collaborative. He worked with us to design the final solution (a unique shaped concrete pad with stamp design) which ended up being much less expensive and much more beautiful and functional than the original plan (a wood deck). He went beyond what was asked to make sure he and we would be proud of the result. Allwyn asked great questions, attended to detail, and offered creative changes. We had some challenges with an electrician Allwyn subcontracted. The electrician missed some appointments. Ultimately, the work was completed and the quality was excellent. I look forward to working with Allwyn again."
"Joe with JV Constuction is reliable, honest and hard working. He is very professional and has taken a very difficult job and made it look easy. I am so happy with the quality of his work and I will definitely ask him to do more work on my house!!!"
If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.
If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.
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.
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.
