"Mr. Lorenzi was very helpful during the initial stage of the project, giving us valuable advice on where to buy the tile for both the shower and the floor. He mentioned that 2X2 tiles for the shower were less likely to cause slippage. He and his crew arrived on time on the scheduled start date and arrived at that same time for the rest of the project. The final product was perfect, with the shower including a niche and a small bench."

"Work was drawn out due to our vacation and several unexpected out-of-state funerals. Communication with CGC office staff was 2.5 (on 5 point scale). A payment schedule - when and how much - should have been explained in advance. The work: removed steel bathtub and tile surround, plumbing relocated, new cement board, fancy tile, new plumbing fixtures and glass shower doors installed. Wallpapered dining room walls had light plaster coat first applied to smooth out existing orange peel texture. Excellent attention to pattern matching. Paper waste was minimized."

"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.

"We had a great experience working with Gift Remodeling LLC! They renovated our entire kitchen (including floors) and also laid tile on our back porch and took care of some other projects around the house. They were very accommodating to any changes we requested, and they completed the project within the agreed time frame. Duniel (the owner) was quick to respond and very friendly. We'll absolutely be using them again for future projects. We recommend 100%"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

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.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.
