"Walter and his son James were a formidable team: courteous, fastidious, and neat! I know how difficult it can be to find trustworthy contractors for any project in the home. We have worked a lot with contractors, in NY (3 Properties) Connecticut, and Florida Walter Montero provided us with our best contractor/builder experience. I endorse him enthusiastically and intend to work with him in the future for several projects. Anybody looking for a carpenter familiar with Trex decking would be well advised to reach out to Walter Best wishes to achieving a job well done!"

"Marcelo and Henry from GM Carpentry were awesome!! We originally hired him to replace some siding on our house, which then turned into a bigger job of needing to replace some of our roof (it's always something with home ownership...sigh!). But, Marcelo and his team were SO fast, responsive and reliable. Showed up when they said they would and finished the job (including all the extra stuff) in four days. 10000% hire him for anything carpentry and you won't be disappointed!"

"We originally contacted Brian to measure, source and install window treatments on some skylights and windows, and when we found out he's a renaissance man, we asked him to do many other jobs for us as well--carpentry, electric, plumbing, labor & assembly, you name it. He's a consummate professional, easy to communicate with, and a pleasure to work with. He's such a nice guy I even invited him to stay for dinner one evening after he finished working. I'm not sure at this point what Brian can't do, but I'd trust him to tell me if something I asked for was beyond his wide ranging capabilities. We will absolutely hire Brian again and again and continue to refer him to friends in the future. The only challenge is that his schedule books up since he's highly in demand, so contact him sooner rather than later.
Some of Brian's work for us has included:
  • - Full-service window treatments for skylights and windows--we love them, and Brian's advice was helpful
- Repair of a slatted blind that Brian told us didn't really need replacing after all
- Selection and installation of a new blind to match others next to it--looks great
- Installation and assembly of 2 ceiling light fixtures. We didn't have the right part for hanging one from a vaulted ceiling, and Brian made sure to get one for us that fit the aesthetic perfectly. No corner cutting.
- Hanging pictures and heavy shelves
- Plumbing help with 2 leaky refrigerators
- Disassembly, strongman labor, and reassembly of a large piece of exercise equipment in another room in the house
- Window replacement
- Installation of a cat door through a sheetrock wall
- Installation of a track for a pocket door
- Installation of dimmer switches
- Assembly and installation of a large closet system
...etc. We've been happy with the results of all these projects--and all the rest that I can't remember at the moment.

"We wanted to repair our old wood deck where I was hoping to replace the boards and the railings. I got a few quotes, some were > 10k some were about 5K. Mr Iglis quoted a price that was very reasonable but then he also explained the pros and cons of repair vs replace with vinyl and his price was again very reasonable. He did remove everything and replaced with a new Trex boards all for price which was reasonable. The quality of work was excellent including how he waterproofed the structural frame. He kept me informed on progress and any hiccups. Overall, I will highly recommend Hasa Home Improvement."

"I wanted an estimate in advance, and I told Edie I was not ready to get my deck fixed yet. Despite that, he gave me a thoughtful and detailed analysis of what he could do with my deck and emailed me a formal estimate. He answered many questions about materials and what would be the best options. He contacted me very soon after I submitted my interest and came to my home at short notice. I was impressed by the photos of his work, his knowledge, and excellent attitude."

"We recently hired Joe to paint my mother’s entire house and two-story garage, and the results were beautiful. He was responsive, quick, and truly listened to what we wanted. He worked closely with us throughout the project, was easy to communicate with, and handled every change request professionally and without hesitation. What stood out most was his care and attention to detail. He took pride in his work, and it showed in the finished product. The whole property looks refreshed and absolutely beautiful. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled, reliable, and professional painter."

"What an incredible experience. Contacted them for siding consult, Chris from sales was very knowledgeable and easy to talk with. Gave us great recommendations for the design. We signed up and wow the siding was here in less than 10 days. The installers, Led by Daniel were incredible. They were courteous, friendly, neat and they were fast! You could see pride of work as they were doing the project. They were also on time each day, were there when they said they would be. AJ our project manager was awesome as well..Communicated frequently so we always knew what to expect. We are thrilled with our new home, siding is beautiful, this team is stellar! If we could give a 100 rating we would!"

"Agile Construction was very professional. They asked what needed to get done and then came in and executed it flawlessly. They were able to answer my questions and explained the work and their methodology. They came to repair my window sill. And it looks way better than before."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.
