"I cannot begin to say enough about Don's craftsmanship. When my wife and I encountered an emergency remodel that was necessary to complete on a short turnaround in our son's nursery, Don answered the call. His quote to install a bay window seat with built in cubby holes for our son's books matched his exact quote, work was completed on time, the work met our expectations to the letter, and Don was excellent on communicating the entire time. I highly his services recommend."

"The Prime Contractor was amenable to making contractual changes before the project began; this was greatly beneficial to assuaging customer concerns. The majority of sub-contractors performed assigned tasks without incident, all without any accidents—and all were insured. The final product resulted in a detached garage with framing, roofing, gutters, doors, windows, electrical and plumbing that are worthy or show-casing first-rate craftsmanship. I am extremely pleased with the final result and would readily work with this company again on future projects."

"I should start by saying that I was on a very tight budget which really did not match with my dreams.  I had many disappointments with contractors in the past - lost my historic home in Fort Lauderdale and $90,000.00 because of unscrupulous contractors.  Long story.  Anyway, I had understandable fears as I embarked on the venture of updating my tiny home in Ocala.
Dan Spaulding was my first contact.  We spent quite some time on the planning part of the work - MANY emails back and forth exchanging ideas.   He was always patient with me.  Took me shopping for tile and flooring and granite.  Eased my panic attacks, made excellent suggestions, and made many trips to the house during the time the work was done.
Tom Steppen and his assistant were the hands-on guys.  You've heard the expression "jack of all trades, master of none" ?  
Well Tom is a MASTER of all trades, in my opinion.  The quality of his work was excellent.  He and his assistant, Jay, were perfectionists through all phases of the work.  They had subcontractors come in for some plumbing and electrical work.
The only downside was really caused by me.  I made several changes as we went along and drove Tom crazy, which created friction between us.  It's really hard to anticipate certain things until the work is in progress and then you get ideas.  Too many visits to Houzz kept my mind whirling.  So try to have everything nailed down before work starts - and then stay off of HGTV and Houzz until the work is completed.
I am exceedingly pleased with the outcome and highly recommend  Steppen and Spaulding.

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

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.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.
