We pride ourselves on the quality of our work as well as our commitment to outstanding results. We look forward to building lasting relationships and guarantee your satisfaction!

"Overall, they did a good job. They did concrete steps, bathroom remodel, drywall repair, painting, floors replacement and steps refinishing and room closet. For most of the work that they did, the job was ok. I felt as if they were more expensive than the level of service they provided. Also, they are not flooring experts. My floors were incorrectly installed and bubbled in multiple places after only a few weeks. When they came out to evaluate the issue and develop a solution, they appeared clueless and never responded to my text messages and phone calls. I had to hire a flooring contractor to redo their work. Ultimately, they performed adequately on everything except the floors. And they took way too long to complete the work."

No one denies the value of experience, but when it is 40 years of loving labor of paint and brush, and when it comes from Europe, it has got to be special! Anthony Clavelli started painting at an early age when still living with his family in Italy. Ever since then, there has always been a feel of the European touch of perfection in all his works: faux and regular painting, Venetian plaster, wallpaper, decorative color design, stenciling and furniture painting. Meeting Anthony is unlike any regular appointment with a professional painter: he always wants to hear your ideas, talk about your special vision for the project, and pick out fabrics, decor, carpet, and furniture that will make you home a space of perfection. He can easily help with suggestions on all of the final color choices.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

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.

Depending on your carport's configuration, foundation or slab condition, and location in relation to the house, turning a carport into a garage has a lot in common with adding an addition to your home. However, you can skip some of the necessities of adding living space to your home, such as fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall or HVAC. It might be possible to DIY the conversion, but it’s complicated and potentially dangerous work, so it’s best left to the professionals.

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.
