"I hired El Dorado Construction after we had water damage in an upstairs bathroom and decided to upgrade while we were at it. They tiled the bathroom floor and under the washer and dryer. They also put in new wood flooring in the two upstairs bedrooms, library and the stairs along with new baseboards. They were professional neat and clean and a pleasure to work with. Antonio Martinez is wonderful, and he also worked with the insurance company on the water damage claim. He has a great crew. Can't thank them enough!"

"He has done a very good job with it, very professional, It is a rental property ha had basically installed slinging doors and also did patchwork on my drywall, baseboards, exteriors doors, and outside moldings, he actually installed things faster than I expected. His price was reasonable, clean, courteous, the tenants were very happy with the contractor, the contractor did his best to avoid dust and noise to annoy the tenants and did a professional job. No complaints all. He took photos on the work to make sure that the work was okay already and asked a few feedbacks from the tenants as well and they were very happy and has positive feedback."

Customers say: Quick response

"Randy has great attention to detail and does not cut corners. Whenever issues came up, he dealt with them expeditiously. As this was for an out-of-town property, Randy was in constant communication throughout the project. There is nothing about the project we regret doing and plan on using Randy in the future. Highly recommend Castro Construction."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.
