"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."

"I'm very happy with the work that I had done as well as the very fair price. David made sure to explain what was happening as he completed the project, and worked with me on the best way to address some issues that were uncovered as the old roof was removed. They showed up exactly when they said they would, and finished right on schedule."

"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."

"Absolutely fantastic! Jonathan did some furniture re-design and building for us. We could not be happier. Superior talent and customer service! Can recommend him highly. He really takes care of his customers. He also does upholstery (furniture and headboards) and we will have him back to do that."

"We hired Ace Restoration and Construction Inc to do our kitchen remodel. My kitchen was so outdated. I had an idea of what I wanted but was also unsure of some of the things needing to be done. They helped us through the whole process. It was so fun to design it together and then watch it all come to life! If you?re going to do work on your house I for sure would recommend Ace Restoration and Construction!"

"A friend of mine recommended Kyle Behm to me when I was looking to hire someone to do some work on my new house (painting the entire interior, replacing the front door, installing gutters, and a few general repairs both inside and outside the house). We got quotes from both Kyle and one other company. His pricing was competitive, and his quote reflected that he had listened to and understood our needs. While the work was being scheduled and done, Kyle and his team were professional, hardworking, responsive and did an excellent, detail-oriented job on everything (for example, the stucco that they repaired around our front door matches the existing stucco so well you would never know it had been cracked). Kyle was also very patient with our many first-time-homeowner questions, worked with our schedule and met our move-in deadline even though he was super busy, and flexible when we made a few changes to the scope of the work along the way. We originally were going to have Kyle and his team do a bathroom remodel as well, but decided to wait and make a few other purchases first. We will definitely hire him again once we're ready to do that, and for any other work we end up needing done. Thank you Kyle!"

"Mike was punctual and very professional on this project which took a little over two days to complete. His assistant was very skilled in the kind of carpentry required for building a deck and benches incorporated into the structure. The photo shows the triangular area repaired after a spa had been removed. The new redwood had not yet been stained to match the older part of the deck."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.

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.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.
