"Good communication. Excellent work. They rebuilt a patio cover that was deteriorating and then painted it. They arrived on time and cleaned up the area at the end of arch day. Very happy with their work."

"Excellent. David and his team worked with me throughout the entire process. A received a prompt call from David after my initial inquiry. He answered all my questions and worked with me through the entire process (even when I had changes.) He was prompt and on-time every day and was even ahead of schedule with my specific time-frame for a big deck. He's a hard worker with attention to detail and exceeded my expectations. From my experience and interactions, he has a lot of integrity. David was accommodating through some of my changes mid-stream and was a pleasure to work with. After reading reviews from others, I can say that I was not disappointed. I would not hesitate to hire Fiber-Coat Deck Co. again for my next project and would recommend them to my friends. Thank you, David. A job well done. The deck looks awesome Work done: remove asphalt shingles, clean up and secure existing nails, lay down and screw in T&G plywood, install multi-layer deck coating (metal lathe, concrete overlay, fiberglass coating, fiberglass sheets, resin, texture, final deck coating/color)."

"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."

"I’m so glad I found Axis Team. Mack provided outstanding service. He completed chandelier installations, installed dimmer switches throughout the home, replaced broken the doorbell, fixed a leak, replaced a sliding door handle & lock and replaced broken locks on windows. On time, very responsive to texts, professional, pleasant, cleans up after himself, works very fast and has experience in all things you’d want in a handyman. Highly recommend!"

"I hired this company to repair structural damage to the frame of a loveseat and they did excellent work from the pickup all the way through the delivery. The experience is everything that someone should want and expect from a high quality firm. It was a pleasurable experience."

"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 My kitchen was so outdated.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!"

"They did a great job. Very professional & courteous team lead by Mike Mohsini. He was the only contractor to give me a detailed written estimate, which was also lower than the two other verbal estimates I received. Mike also included some needed structural upgrades & other current building code requirements. The final inspection by San Francisco building department is scheduled for Monday, 6/13/22. I would definitely recommend Northgate Development to anyone in Bay Area needing deck repairs and/or replacement. Thanks for your recommendation. ~Stephen Teeple"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

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.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

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.
