"We are very happy with the results and would like to give 4.5 stars if we could. They're a great company to work with and the job was fairly priced and done well. We would definitely work with CVB again. In addition to the kitchen remodel, they also did work on another house project and we were thoroughly satisfied. Our only suggestion is for the crew to be better prepared when getting to the job site. Additional time was spent collecting/buying tools and material after arriving."

We have been in the construction industry for over 10 years. From building ADUs, high-end kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels and home extensions, we have done just about everything under general construction. Our company prioritizes safety, quality and transparency.

"Me and my wife decided recently to get our kitchen remolded. After some time searching for the right guys to do the job we settled on RG Construction. Richard, who is the owner, is a great guy and super informative. He never left any question unanswered or left us uncertain about anything. His crew works quick, and they pay attention to the tiniest detail. They absolutely are worth every dollar and I would recommend RG Construction to any homeowner, and I for sure will be giving them a call back for any work I need done in the future. Me and my wife are absolutely in love with our remodel."

At I Construction, we believe that any construction and repair project, regardless of its size or budget, should be executed with the same standards of quality and workmanship. We also believe that the people who entrust us with the safety of their home or property should receive not only the results we promise but also the care and service they deserve. Giving high-quality service and results should be simple, starting from answering the call of a potential customer and making sure he feels understood. After all, help is what he is asking, whether he wants to build his dream house or needs a minor damage repair. We keep that in mind from the start and throughout the project. We have the expertise and the competence to make his dream a reality or his property retain its value, but we are also helping and caring for someone who came to us with a specific need. And he simply expects nothing less than a job well done. So, we deliver what we said we can do for him.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.
