"Eric took over a partially completed remodeling job. The job
included framing a new floor where there had been a sunken conversation pit,
hanging doors, replacing the old baseboards and completing a wall with new drywall.
His bid was very reasonable and he completed the job quickly and efficiently. I
would use him again and I would definitely recommend him to others.

"Javier is wonderful to work with. Over the last 5 years, he did many projects for my elderly grandparents in Salinas. When I contact him, he is prompt in every way: He responds to my texts, does the needed work without delay, and bills quickly. He is a nice person, honest, has broad knowledge, does quality work, and is a clear communicator. Javier has made my construction projects feel easy. All my experiences with him feel very positive, leave me with a good feeling, and a good finished project."

"Mauricio did an excellent job of clearing my very dirty brick patio, front steps, paths and driveway. He was efficient and the result is amazing. The bricks on the patio were black with moss growing on them. Now they look like new."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Miguel on several home improvement projects, and I cannot speak highly enough of his skills, professionalism, and dedication. Miguel undertook a range of tasks, including plumbing under the house, replacing the water heater, fencing, a bathroom remodel, and various bathroom repairs. From the outset, Miguel demonstrated exceptional knowledge and expertise in plumbing. The work under the house and the water heater replacement were executed flawlessly, with great attention to detail and a focus on quality. Miguel provided us with peace of mind and a reliable plumbing system. The fencing project was another testament to Miguel's versatility and craftsmanship. He meticulously planned and constructed a sturdy, aesthetically pleasing fence that not only enhances the security of our property but also adds to its overall curb appeal. Miguel’s eye for detail and commitment to excellence were evident throughout the project. Additionally, Miguel took care of various bathroom repairs with the same level of expertise and dedication. No job was too small for him, and he ensured that every detail was addressed, leaving us with a bathroom that is in excellent working order. Throughout all these projects, Miguel's professionalism, punctuality, and excellent communication stood out. He consistently went above and beyond to ensure that we were satisfied with the work, and his friendly demeanor made the entire experience pleasant. I highly recommend Miguel for any home improvement projects. His work is of the highest quality, and his commitment to customer satisfaction is unparalleled. Thank you, Miguel, for your outstanding work and for making our home a better place!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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. 

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
