"Weâ  ve never dealt with a more professional, knowledgable, detailed oriented contractor than with Avram Remo & his sons. Excellent craftsman, he envisions the repair/build before he starts and explains the steps heâ  s working on and gets our approval before moving on. He was here every day, and worked a solid 8 hours . He does all the carpentry work himself to endure everything is done to code. Heâ  s licensed & bonded in California. The quote was reasonable and we would definitely use him again and highly recommend him. If we could give Remo Construction more than 5 Starsâ ¦we definitely would!"

"I'm very happy with the work that I had done as well as the very fair price. David made sure to explain what was happening as he completed the project, and worked with me on the best way to address some issues that were uncovered as the old roof was removed. They showed up exactly when they said they would, and finished right on schedule."

Absolutely amazing how quickly they worked. Abel knew we were on a time crunch because our lease was coming up & he and his team delivered. I would definitely recommend to family & friends"

"After 2 months that Joe and his sraff replaced 2 facia panels, the wooden panel showed signs of crackes. His staff came and replaced one of the panels, 6 feets, free of charge. They were very efficient and profeciaonal and they perfomrd good job in the second time. I recommend Joe and his staff for any wood frame work."

"Still in process, but so far they have been excellent. We have run into a snag with the job the flooring company (it was NOT done by JB Custom Finish .. Now I wish I had used them) and JB has, and is, doing everything they can to help us through this."

"An engineering friend recommended that I contact Farid to inquire about his carpentry skills, after seeing his work on a few projects. Farid personally came out, drafted a proposal after carefully inspecting the necessary repairs, and worked regularly and diligently to vastly improve the strength and appearance of my 17 year old backyard structure. It was a very pleasant experience overall, and Farid and his assistant Eddie did a beautiful job. Would hire again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

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.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.
