"Review time! Are you sure you want me to review EG Construction? The answer is, of course! Time has passed a bit since Elias and crew completed the project for our home here in San Diego. I just did not have the time to sit down and focus on a review for this company, but I do have time now. The guys who showed up to do the work were great. Communications from the group was excellent, no issues at all while we worked from home. The engineered wood flooring looks amazing and I really appreciate the care they took to provide a high-quality job while completing it within our agreed time schedule. Elias had no issue working this project through the holidays (it was almost Christmas), but good thing it was completed prior to that! Kudos to the crew for working so diligently and at the same time keeping the level of quality in check. No one is perfect, could there be something that they could do to improve? Sure, letâ s just say we were glad that we were not in a rush to get this project done. E.G. Construction was a bit slow to get back with estimates and follow ups on material prices. Talk about the price, their estimates were in line with other bids we received. Yes, we did shop around and almost went to another contractor, however, my wife leaned towards giving E.G. Construction an opportunity. In any case, the job was done right and thatâ s the most important thing that mattered. This is a family company, so I understand not all process is perfect so I did not mind for some of the communication delays. Paola was straightforward and easy to work with when we got in touch, she also was able to get me an answer when I asked. Also, maybe our home project is really small compared to what they are usually chasing after. Elias seemed to always act responsible and I love his stylish fashion outfit (I like his fashionable glasses the day he showed up for a final follow up with me). Not only do I recommend E.G. Construction, but we do not believe we are done with their services. Labor in general is not cheap, but quality service is not an option and I believe E.G. Construction provides excellent quality. Since we have enough left-over material to replace other carpet areas, we hope E.G. Construction will be our partner in that future project."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Hiring a woodworker can be expensive, depending on the job, but it’s very often well worth the investment. Woodworkers are able to provide custom pieces of furniture and handmade construction to present a finished product that is exactly to your specifications. If you have a specific vision for a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture or home feature, the cost of hiring a professional woodworker is worthwhile. Plus, you’ll often get a higher quality product than what you could buy in stores for a fraction of the price.

Yes, many kinds of building permits exist for various projects in and outside your home. Each city sets the permit categories, but they typically cover new construction, alterations, and demolition. For example, you will need a different permit to finish a basement than you would tear down the patio.

Garages are often equipped with lighting, electrical boxes, and sometimes even heating and cooling, while carports rarely have utilities. A garage is an enclosed structure that can lock and usually has an automatic door. A carport is often wood or plastic and is designed only to protect a car from elements like rain, snow, and hail. Carports are commonly seen on property where an attached garage is unfeasible but can be a cost-effective solution for car protection for anyone without a completed garage. 

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.
