"I had an outdoor playground set. Adrian was professional and hard-working. Great communication and he brought all the required tools and equipment. He showed up first thing in the morning on a short notice and it was all done before the end of the day. The assembly looks great and I know the kids will love it!"

"Javier is wonderful to work with. Over the last 5 years, he did many projects for my elderly grandparents in Salinas. When I contact him, he is prompt in every way: He responds to my texts, does the needed work without delay, and bills quickly. He is a nice person, honest, has broad knowledge, does quality work, and is a clear communicator. Javier has made my construction projects feel easy. All my experiences with him feel very positive, leave me with a good feeling, and a good finished project."

"Elvis and his professional staff came to the property and gave their quote for the jobs that needed to be done. The quote was more than fair without any fudging involved-an honest wage for an honest days work. Elvis prepared a detailed estimate for what he was going to do and the materials needed to handle the job. There was no added % for the materials needed as some contractors tend to do. The job of building the garage including the demolition and dump hauls was completed in a respectable timely fashion and not only that but Elvis answered my calls immediately and answered any and all concerns with a professional attitude. He was respectable to me and my wife by addressing us by 'sir' and 'mam' but he did not have to do that. I trust Elvis and while we were away from our home he was more than welcome to come in to use the electrical plug ins or for any other needs he may have had. His work along with his employees is excellent and done with pride and craftsmanship. No short cuts and if it was not done to his or our liking he is the type of person who would start all over again if necessary. I would not hesitate to hire Elvis Mendez for contractor work of any kind and since I am a real estate agent locally I will recommend his services for clients that may be in need of upgrading/remodeling their homes prior to placing on the market. I would love very much for him to be hired to build a home as hi;s dedication and commitment to his client would be exemplary in my opinion. Thank you very much Elvis to you and your co-workers."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Miguel on several home improvement projects, and I cannot speak highly enough of his skills, professionalism, and dedication. Miguel undertook a range of tasks, including plumbing under the house, replacing the water heater, fencing, a bathroom remodel, and various bathroom repairs. From the outset, Miguel demonstrated exceptional knowledge and expertise in plumbing. The work under the house and the water heater replacement were executed flawlessly, with great attention to detail and a focus on quality. Miguel provided us with peace of mind and a reliable plumbing system. The fencing project was another testament to Miguel's versatility and craftsmanship. He meticulously planned and constructed a sturdy, aesthetically pleasing fence that not only enhances the security of our property but also adds to its overall curb appeal. Miguel’s eye for detail and commitment to excellence were evident throughout the project. Additionally, Miguel took care of various bathroom repairs with the same level of expertise and dedication. No job was too small for him, and he ensured that every detail was addressed, leaving us with a bathroom that is in excellent working order. Throughout all these projects, Miguel's professionalism, punctuality, and excellent communication stood out. He consistently went above and beyond to ensure that we were satisfied with the work, and his friendly demeanor made the entire experience pleasant. I highly recommend Miguel for any home improvement projects. His work is of the highest quality, and his commitment to customer satisfaction is unparalleled. Thank you, Miguel, for your outstanding work and for making our home a better place!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

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.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
