"John was really great. He was very nice as well as reasonably priced. He worked on replacing one of our garage walls (Plywood, waterproofing & Stucco), repairing dry rot in the framing of one of our windows as well as trim work around the entire exterior of our home. He was efficient and his work was of high quality. He passed every inspection with flying colors. You can tell he takes pride in his work. I would absolutely recommend him!"

"Bay Remodeling Kitchen & Bath I just completed a kitchen and bathroom remodel, and I love the outcome! The staff was exceedingly professional, diligent, and courteous. They were meticulous in every way, and the result is magnificent. Every money spent on the service was well worth it, and everything went smoothly from beginning to end. Bay renovation is the company to choose if you're searching for a trustworthy renovation contractor. Extremely happy!"

"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."

"After I interviewed several recommended contractors on my bathroom remodel I decided to hire Sky Tech Builders because they gave me most realistic offer, most detailed answers and plan of the project. It was a right decision, they did excellent job, as I requested and also everything as they promised, within scheduled time and within my budget. The quality of work is second to none and my new bathroom looks amazing! I strongly recommend this contractor!"

Customers say: True professional

"Working with Kris & Aaron is a true pleasure, which is unusual when working with contractors. They are lovely men who are honest and trustworthy and who also take huge pride in doing things correctly. No cutting corners or cheap stuff for them. They have done things like replace my skylight, build fences, add electrical lights/outlets/etc. I would trust them with anything. Because they are also excellent landscapers, they actually know plants and landscaping and have done wonderful things with my gardens. Thank you Kris & Aaron!"

"We are very happy with this company. They have done some work at our townhouse and we are definitely hiring them for any other future renovations. It is so difficult to find a contractor you can trust and when we met Ofer, we are very pleased. He is easy to talk to and he listened to what we want to get done and worked with our budget."

Small jobs welcome

"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.

"Isaías and his crew are remarkable! I had a very absent contractor who was good in the beginning then didn’t show up for 3 weeks! Had I not been referred to Isaías, I would STILL be in an 8mo job that took 3 yrs to NOT finish! Jackie is Supportive and helpful Isaías checked it out, got his crew in and ~2 mos I was in! Isais came by the job regularly, didn’t pull his workers to another job, made sure all was going as planned. He didn’t ask for money every time he showed up, inspected the work being done, checked in with me and ensured I was getting what I wanted. The single most important quality for me is reliability. Reliability was demonstrated by Isaías regularly. Jackie was so responsive and helped me thru the filing process. Contractors don’t like coming into a build that someone else has started. Isaias was open and understood how long it has been for this relatively small ADU. Bottomline they got in, got to work, and finished it off! Thank you, Isaias and Jackie!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry.
