"I recently had the pleasure of working with Jose Pajares and his team at Home Care and Repair for custom built-in cabinets in our family room, as well as repairs and replacements after fire damage in our kitchen. I cannot speak highly enough of their professionalism and craftsmanship. From the very beginning, Jose and his team impressed us with their punctuality and attention to detail. They arrived on time for each appointment, and their work ethic was exemplary. Throughout the project, they maintained a clean and organized workspace, ensuring minimal disruption to our daily routine. When it comes to their trade, Jose and his team are true artists. The custom built-in cabinets in our family room are a testament to their skill and creativity. They seamlessly integrated the cabinets into the existing design, matching it perfectly to our kitchen aesthetics. The attention to detail was astonishing, and the end result exceeded our expectations. Additionally, the repairs to our kitchen cabinets and the replacement of our granite countertops were executed flawlessly. Jose and his team handled the fire damage with utmost care, restoring our kitchen to its former glory. The new countertops fit seamlessly, and the quality of the workmanship is evident. Overall, I highly recommend Home Care and Repair. Their professionalism, timeliness, and attention to detail set them apart. If you're in need of custom cabinetry or repair work, you won't find a better team to work with. They truly are masters of their craft."

Professional, informed me of every step in work required and supplies needed for completion of projects as I needed to schedule around my elderly sister's medical problems. His craftsmanship and insight to detail are highly appreciated. Work areas were always left clean and tidy. Reasonable prices for all services provided; he is definitely my first choice for future projects. I highly recommend him to anyone needing a reliable, trustworthy handyman."

"We found McCormick home builders through Angie’s list. They were not one of our original contacts, but they contacted us and came out to give us a quote. Matteo was extremely helpful, informative, honest, and gave us reasonable realistic prices, and did not try to inflate the prices or pressure us in anyway. We felt very comfortable with him immediately. We felt like he was a member of the family that we could just talk to and ask questions he was very personable. He gave us his contact number in case we had other questions and he was always available when we needed him for any type of questions or concerns. Mateo‘s team did a beautiful job. They were fast. They were efficient. They cleaned up beautifully. They did a wonderful job. They were very considerate of our time our needs and our neighbors. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Matteo from McCormick home builders for any home building projects, and we will be calling him again in the future!"

"Our roof was in bad shape and we needed to have it replaced. I had gotten estimates and decided to go with Home Pro Remodeling. Emil and Brian were our contact people for the project. Emil was very professional and paid attention to our concerns. He worked with us through the entire project to our complete satisfaction. Brian is extremely courteous and helpful as well! The project went very smoothly, was completed before the initial project end date, and the results were beyond our expectations. The job turned our beautifully! Our new roof looks FANTASTIC! Our neighbors have commented to us how great it looks. We are very pleased with our experience with Home Pro Remodeling and would definitely recommend them."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

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.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.
