"Having purchased this second home out of state and literally knowing nothing about the area and what was needed to set up the reconstruction, he was highly recommended by our real estate agent and had great references from other homeowners in the area. Eric helped us find a local architect/designer, worked with the building planning district, water district, etc. etc. so he's much more than just a General Contractor.  We simply could not have completed the work without him. As with all remodels, it's stressful and he was the calm, steady person needed to keep everyone in check.  He had great sub-contractors and every portion of the work was completed as guaranteed per the contract.  When there were hiccups, he fixed it.  He did all the hard work, just coordinated with us to be sure we got what we expected from each phase.  The results exceeded all our expectations.  No hesitation with recommending him for any job, large or small.

"We worked with Ali (sales manager) and Tony (project manager), who took the time to design a project that made sense for our property and our budget, made a number of suggestions and recommendations and were never pushy or tried to "sell" us on something. The crew really went above and beyond to provide top quality workmanship and overall we were in very good hands. Highly recommended!"

"I purchased a 4-hr handyman deal through Angie's List for That Contractor Guy. I scheduled a day and time to have a someone come out and complete a 3 item work list. One person arrived and I provided him with the three items. He took care of the first two items within an hour and a half, but was unable to complete the third item(shelf install). Because the first two items took less than 2 hrs to complete, once Muno(owner) arrived he had assured me that he would come back out and handle another small job (replace an exterior light) to essentially cover the original purchase once I purchased the material. During the initial visit, I had also made him aware that I was looking to work with a contractor for some larger jobs(built-ins, update a fireplace and replace some trim). However, after contacting Muno twice to complete the original job, he never responded. Although he and his employee did good work and were obviously competent, the lack of professionalism prohibited me from using or referring That Contractor Guy to anyone else. Since he did not keep his original word to complete such a small job there is no way I could trust him for a larger job. End result is that I found another contractor to perform the 15k in improvements that I had planned to use That Contractor Guy to complete. I only purchased the 4hr deal to help me locate a trustworthy contractor to employ. Unfortunately, this was not a good match for me.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.
