"Karol was a very professional and organized contractor. He was patient and listened to what I needed. He made sure to keep our house clean and protected during the construction. I refered him to a neighbor and my neighbor has given him many projects. I would hire Herman construction again for all my work."

"It's difficult to trust contractors these days. We had a bad experience in the past with another contractor and we were very hesitant to use one again. However, we decided to give Tech Line Construction a chance because our friend recommended them. We are so glad that we did! They painted the exterior of our house and handled a bigger project for our property. I admire how Luis always kept us in the loop and he was always available to answer our questions. We'll pass the word to our friends and family about this company. They're the real deal!"

"Tool Time Home Improvement was exactly what we were looking for. Other contractors wouldn't even consider the job because it was too small, but Tool Time responded to my inquiry within a few hours, came out to check out the space a few days later, got me a quote for the work the same day, and started work the same week. We are so thankful for the good, quick work Tool Time Home Improvement provided. The workers were always prompt, communicative, tidy, and they checked everything twice to make sure it was done right. I would definitely recommend these guys, and I will be calling them again should the need arise."

"Bay Remodeling Kitchen & Bath I just completed a kitchen and bathroom remodel, and I love the outcome! The staff was exceedingly professional, diligent, and courteous. They were meticulous in every way, and the result is magnificent. Every money spent on the service was well worth it, and everything went smoothly from beginning to end. Bay renovation is the company to choose if you're searching for a trustworthy renovation contractor. Extremely happy!"

"We are very happy with this company. They have done some work at our townhouse and we are definitely hiring them for any other future renovations. It is so difficult to find a contractor you can trust and when we met Ofer, we are very pleased. He is easy to talk to and he listened to what we want to get done and worked with our budget."

Small jobs welcome

"Having purchased this second home out of state and literally knowing nothing about the area and what was needed to set up the reconstruction, he was highly recommended by our real estate agent and had great references from other homeowners in the area. Eric helped us find a local architect/designer, worked with the building planning district, water district, etc. etc. so he's much more than just a General Contractor.  We simply could not have completed the work without him. As with all remodels, it's stressful and he was the calm, steady person needed to keep everyone in check.  He had great sub-contractors and every portion of the work was completed as guaranteed per the contract.  When there were hiccups, he fixed it.  He did all the hard work, just coordinated with us to be sure we got what we expected from each phase.  The results exceeded all our expectations.  No hesitation with recommending him for any job, large or small.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces.
