"We couldn’t have asked for a better experience than working with RCD to remodel our kitchen! Tim won us over from the start - great communication, listened to all our Pinterest inspired ideas and pulled every string he could to keep us within budget. Then he introduced us the dream team of contractors. MVP goes to Art, the incredibly talented contractor. He and Daniel transformed our kitchen in a few short weeks and brought such great attitudes to the job. The kitchen is absolutely stunning and we’ve gotten so many compliments. We couldn’t be happier and can’t wait to do more work with this team."

Dave finished on time, on budget, and the work looks great. I will definitely call Dave next time I need a contractor or handyman."

"It took us time to find a contractor. We got over Six quotes only two contractors actually sent us a bid. Ben was very responsive. He sent us the quote within a week from the visit. We were very satisfied with the process. We were always in the know. We have done renovations In the past with contractors and we were always not pleased with not knowing the schedule. We finally found someone we can trust and will definitely be using him again. Thank you again Ben it was a pleasure meeting you and working with you."

"First and foremost, I apologize for the late review. Mark is a great communicator. As most of the work was done while I was at work and my dog was at daycare, I truly appreciated all of his communications via text. He would send me photos too to show me the progress. I did appreciate that. 
He was always available to me via phone call or text. That also put my mind at ease.
Mark met with me to review the project and give me an estimate. I met with 2 other contractors and Mark seemed to have a good vibe, so I chose his company. He has also done other jobs in the area and I liked that too.
Bathroom remodel- Completely gutted it. Very small bathroom, and partially remodeled before, so I wanted it to be a nice, complete upgrade. All new fixtures, vanity, small cabinet, medicine cabinet, bathtub- mostly purchased from Lowes. Mark picked up the bathtub that I purchased at Home Depot and brought it to my house for installation. ( When I was shopping for items and I had questions, I would text him with photos and he would respond to my texts so I could make timely decisions). Subway tile in the bath/ shower area, with a small window shelf on the back wall. Marble penny tile on the floor. Textured walls to match the rest of the house. Painted walls, rehinged door to open the opposite way, repainted door, baseboards.
Kitchen lights- such a difference with LED lights in the kitchen. I can see.
Kitchen door- he fixed the hinge so that the door closes snugly and even.
Baseboards/Crown molding- These make such a difference in the appearance of my house. There are a few gaps in the connected pieces, but overall it looks nice. Minor paint spills on the floor, but nothing major. I love them.
Ceiling crack repair/painted walls and ceilings- The ceilings look awesome. I had cracks that extended from one end to another in the living room and master bedroom, that was just an eyesore. They flushed it out and repainted both ceilings afterwards and it looks like new. Yippee.
Drywall repair- I had a huge piece of a closet wall missing from an electrical upgrade done to my panel on the exterior wall of my closet. That was several years ago. So I asked Mark if they could repair it. He did, they repainted the inside of the closet too. It's like new. 
I can't express how happy I am with the process of this remodel and other projects when working with Mark Halpert construction. His team was nice, clean and prompt. Again, I chose them since the reviews were good and he was reasonably priced. I have had really bad experiences with other contractors, and Mark and his team were easy to work with. I would definitely hire them again for future projects.

Customers say: Quick response

"First project: I am very pleased with Repairs & Remodels On Demand (RROD). I was in the process of selling a property that was about 75 years old. The buyer's mortgage company had sent an inspector who noted several issues. Obviously I was under time pressure. RROD responded very quickly. I needed a hearth built in front of an existing fireplace. RROD advised me on what the current code requirements were. I selected material and the hearth was installed the next day. The inspector also reported six electrical issues, four plumbing issues in the kitchen and four in the bathroom. RROD repaired them all in two days. RROD sent a three man team. The timeline for the project was: Day 1, evaluate job and create estimate; Day 2, install hearth, correct electrical issues and begin plumbing work; Day 3, complete plumbing. On the fourth day I notified the buyer's agent to schedule the re-inspection; the inspection passed with no problems. Sale completed. Second project: In a rental property I own, a tenant wanted a laundry area. I had had the area plumbed but the walls had been opened to accomplish the plumbing. I needed the walls closed up, a short wall built, and the appliances installed. First day, evaluate job and create estimate. Two days later start and complete the job in two additional days. On the day after the completion, the tenant reported a problem with a door that had been installed. I went over and checked and she was correct. It was in mid-afternoon and I called RROD and reported the problem. They immediately scheduled an appointment for 8:00 AM the next morning (and repaired it on that visit). It was a small job with a small problem. The work looked very professional and the paint for the new areas matched the existing room colors. The point is, they do high quality work and they really do stand behind their work. I shall certainly use them again. I am very satisfied with their responsiveness and the high quality of work. They are easy people to work with. They came through for me. Dan"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

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.

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects.
