"The place sparkled! The cabinets...out and especially inside...looked like new! All they wanted to know from me was whether there was anything more they could do, anything they had overlooked. What could I say? I'm a perfectionist but their work was beyond perfect. In fact, my general contractor, who oversaw the multi-day work, was so impressed with the cleaning company and the owner that he is going to regularly use them on projects he does. When one professional like the work of another one that much, that is a terrific recommendation."

"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."

"The project went better than expected. Dave was punctual, and very helpful with both my refrigerator install and connecting waterlines. I felt comfortable with him in my home. Dave was refreshingly honest and referred me to a dependable source to work on a project that was outside his expertise. I appreciate his willingness to accommodate me on a weekend."

"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"

"Coastal Design Remodeling renovated our entire home, 4 baths, a kitchen, floors and tearing down walls. We absolutely felt that we were in good hands with CDR all along the way. My husband and I still talk about how grateful we are that we decided on Shawn and his team! Communication Shawn was an excellent communicator through the entire process, and kept us apprised on next steps throughout the entire process. He was available almost any time we needed to reach him over phone or text. It felt good knowing he was only a text away should problems arise. Cleanliness This was our first remodel, and we were told renovations were both stressful and very, very messy. So we prepared ourselves as we lived with our children amongst the demolition up to final reveal. The team did an excellent job mitigating and sequestering our family from the dust and debris by sectioning off their work areas and cleaning up/ vacuuming every day before they left. Quality of work The quality of the work is fantastic. Any issues we had with quality were handled promptly and appropriately, and there were very few if any surprises . We absolutely love the finished product and enjoy hosting people in our home again! Honesty The team of workers were very trustworthy and we felt comfortable going about our daily routine of work and kids while they were around. Shawn was an upright guy and collected fair payments along the way. There was no fear of him abandoning us, something I truly worried about when scouting contractors. I honestly couldn t imagine having gone with any other contractor for our remodel. This project couldn t have gone any smoother than it did and I am so grateful that we hired Shawn and his team for our entire house remodel!"

"Juan and his team were absolutely fantastic! From the start, he took the time to provide a thorough and honest estimate. He carefully inspected every part of the project to identify any issues before quoting—unlike other contractors I spoke with who were rushed, unprofessional, and gave me overpriced, unreasonable quotes without even taking a proper look. I was working with both a budget and a tight timeline, and Juan not only respected both—he finished the job three days early and delivered outstanding results! Juan is incredibly kind, respectful, dependable, and hardworking. He was transparent throughout the entire process, keeping me informed about his progress and any updates. I initially hired him for a bathroom remodel and a patio repair, but his work impressed me so much that I had him take care of several additional handyman tasks afterward. I’m truly impressed with the quality and care he puts into his work and will absolutely be hiring him again for future home projects."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

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.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
