"The team at Cabinet Refresh was terrific, from the original estimating process through the finished kitchen and family room cabinet painting project. This was a kitchen upgrade with all new, high-end appliances. I wanted to change the look and feel after 20 years and increase the home’s value. At all levels there was honesty, trust and great communication. Carol did the estimate and was welcoming in answering all my questions and providing suggestions when needed. She made me comfortable knowing that they could do all I was rfequesting, including making a custom panel for my new Sub Zero that matched my existing cabinetry. Armondo and Melvin were always on time, neat and with a can-do attitude when little things came up. It was a pleasure having them in my home. I would use that team again without question! And for the cabinetry work, there is nobody better than Julio. New door hinges installed to perfection, new pulls aligned the way they should be and a terrific mounting of the custom Sub Zero panels. Everyone loves the new look. For my next project Cabinet Refresh will be the only ones I call."

"Finding Kressa Design Build on Angi’s list was a godsend. We came across KDB on Angi’s list, sent an inquiry, got a quick response, set up a walkthrough, & 2 weeks later we were making some noise! After meeting Robert & Veronica we knew right away the job was theirs. They were approachable, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with from start to end. We never had any headaches with Robert or his team, they are all skilled and knowledgeable in their work. Shout out to Chris who was like Robert's right hand man. Communication was seamless throughout the entire project. Both Robert & Veronica were responsive, transparent, and never left us in the dark. Whenever setbacks with the city came up, Robert was always ready to keep the project moving forward with his expertise. He confidently turned any obstacle into a manageable step. If you’re looking for a team that is hardworking, professional, and will give you peace of mind with any project, look no further than Kressa Design Build!"

"It was such a pleasure to have Robert and his son Robert help me mount two huge televisions on the wall. They were not just great at their job, but they were amazing people overall. They were kind, friendly, respectful, and helpful. Things that I didn’t hire them to do, they offered to do it for me. Examples like cutting the TV box for us, cleaning the area, and so forth. Moreover, besides being professional and good at their job, they took their time to make sure that everything was perfect to my liking. I appreciate how they are willing to help me to the fullest. Such people like them are hard to come by nowadays. My family and I are glad to have met them through this project. We also learned that they do many other jobs as well. We will call for them again in the future if we need any other help. All in all, I highly recommend Robert and his son if you want great service. You won’t regret it."

I have been in the construction businesses for 20 plus years, and can do anything you want. I have worked in many areas of construction for example remodeling spaces, painting, building structures and so forth. I am independent owned.

"Easy communication. I needed a bathroom exhaust fan installed where there is no attic access. The project included wiring and ductwork to the exterior as well as drywall removal and repair, and then finishing everything beautifully. The two-man team of Vasquez did as instructed and also fixed some old shoddy work that was in the way of the new duct and wiring. They used good materials and did good work at a good price. They were also very respectful of my home, keeping the mess contained and cleaning up after. I would hire again."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Trex is not stronger than wood, but it lasts longer than wood and is heavier. Trex holds up well to the elements and is resistant to termites thanks to its resilient composition of plastic, reclaimed wood, and sawdust. Trex decking is rot and warp-resistant, making it especially useful in areas that experience a lot of snow and rain.

Construction typically takes 1-3 weeks, depending on the project’s scope and customization.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

A board foot is a volumetric unit and is primarily used for pricing and planning larger projects where volume is a factor. Pricing lumber by the board foot aids in understanding exactly how much wood you’re purchasing, as volume is a more accurate unit of measurement compared to square feet.
