"Excellent. David and his team worked with me throughout the entire process. A received a prompt call from David after my initial inquiry. He answered all my questions and worked with me through the entire process (even when I had changes.) He was prompt and on-time every day and was even ahead of schedule with my specific time-frame for a big deck. He's a hard worker with attention to detail and exceeded my expectations. From my experience and interactions, he has a lot of integrity. David was accommodating through some of my changes mid-stream and was a pleasure to work with. After reading reviews from others, I can say that I was not disappointed. I would not hesitate to hire Fiber-Coat Deck Co. again for my next project and would recommend them to my friends. Thank you, David. A job well done. The deck looks awesome Work done: remove asphalt shingles, clean up and secure existing nails, lay down and screw in T&G plywood, install multi-layer deck coating (metal lathe, concrete overlay, fiberglass coating, fiberglass sheets, resin, texture, final deck coating/color)."

"We decided to replace the old original balcony off of one of our bedrooms. It was no longer safe and a definite eyesore on the front of our home! I put a request for quotes for our project onto Angi's. Almost immediately, I received a response from Ramos Construction. I set up an appointment with Avram to come and give us a quote. We intended to have at least three to four contractors give us a quote on the balcony rebuild. Avram and his son arrived on time, inspected the old balcony and explained his findings in detail. As we suspected, the old balcony was no longer safe. Avram gave us a couple options and his recommendations. We decided that the option that worked best for us was to demolish the old balcony and build a new balcony. Avram was so knowledgeable and so informative. He was able to show us pictures of other balconies that he had built so that we could understand more fully what he was recommending. It was quite apparent that he was an expert on balconies. He took the time to explain everything completely to us and answer all their questions. The quote he gave us was less than we were expecting and he gave a very reasonable time frame. We were so impressed with his knowledge and his professionalism, that we decided to go ahead and hire him. We saw no need to have any other contractors come give us a quote. Avram was able to start the demolition of the old balcony 2 weeks later. He explained that he does one project at a time and would never leave the current project to start work on another. We like that type of professionalism and we're confident that we would receive that same dedication to our project. We were amazed at how quickly he was able to demolish the old balcony and begin prep on the new one. Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate so there was one day he wasn't able to do much work due to rain. He used that day to pick up extra flooring supplies he would need, due to our asking that the balcony be extended. Even so, he and his sons were able to not only demolish and build a new balcony, but also do some other work for us, all in four days! Incredible!! Our new balcony is not only safe, it is beautiful and definitely adds curb appeal to our home. If you are interested in repairing or rebuilding a deck or balcony, I highly recommend Avram and his sons. They are friendly, informative, professional and fabulous contractors. Avram has been in the business for many years and truly knows what he is doing. He'll take the time to explain and listen to your concerns. Also, he has old fashioned work ethics that you don't always find in today's world."

"Home Care and Repair’s Jose Pajares did an excellent job in completing the design from a sketch and building my Custom Intertainment Cabinet. The Cabinet was exactly what I wanted and fit perfectly. His crew installed and stained the unit without any problems. I’m very happy with the completed job. I recommend using Home Care and Repair for any Cabinet projects."

"I hired this company to repair structural damage to the frame of a loveseat and they did excellent work from the pickup all the way through the delivery. The experience is everything that someone should want and expect from a high quality firm. It was a pleasurable experience."

"I was very happy with the assembly and the little jobs he did in my daughter in laws house. I live in Nevada and bought my son and daughter in law who live in California an organizing system for their garage. I wanted it put together for them and secured to the wall. Axis was so easy to hire and work with. He showed up on time, was reasonably priced. My kids were very happy! I am saving his contact number!"

"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

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off.
