"If you are looking for the best contractor for the job, Bill Varney and Varney's Construction is the best possible solution; their prices came in at the best and I know the other bidders would have gone well over their bids. Bill and his team are thoughtful, hard-working, good to their word, and exceptional at getting the job done right. See pictures of how they transformed my kitchen below. My summary points of why I really liked them are below for review.
***1. Bill has a meticulous eye for detail and design. Even after my final payment to him, he was still making suggestions on things to run by me such as stainless steel switch plate covers (and considering what type of bar stool design I should think about buying). We completed the contract last week with all money paid and he is still coming out this week on his own (not by my request either) to fix something "that was bothering him and to do one more little touch-up." If that doesn't speak to being good to your word and loyal to perfection on your project, I don't know what does.
***2. He and his company are flexible with your preferences and adapt to your desires. He's great at taking a picture in your mind and actually making it happen.
***3. Open to your ideas but has the sense to tell you nicely when something might look bad. He saved me from a couple possible bad design choices.
***4. He has an excellent knowledge of structural options. I had to remove a load-bearing wall and he was the only 1 of 6 contractors that said he could actually recess it into the roof trusses so that it wouldn't be seen versus having a rafter/beam running through my kitchen (either the others didn’t know how it could be done or they didn’t want the hassle). Either way; he and his team aren’t afraid of hard work and they do it the right way the first time.
***5. His network of specialists (if needed) are inexpensive and do exceptional work (i.e. architects, engineers, etc.). They also show up fast to do the work (2-4 days of him calling them). I had to do a roof penetration for the kitchen which was outside of our arrangement and it only cost $450 (“Winter Park prices” come in at about $750+ to do this type of thing). He also had an engineer/architect sign off and do the plan for the structural changes (removal of the load-bearing wall, etc. for the permit) within a matter of days and it was half of what I found elsewhere for getting an architect/engineer approval on a structural change for City approval.
***6. He and his team work extremely well with the City of Winter Park on permitting. The City of Winter Park/Planning Division was really impressed with the quality of his work and commented on how he went above and beyond what was necessary for their inspections.
***7. He and his team passed all inspections the first time (electrical, mechanical, plumbing – I had the works including bringing in higher Amp line from outside to accommodate the greater electricity usage).
SUMMARY: Varney Construction was the best deal money-wise, had the highest quality work, and finished the job without any effort or hassle on my end. I cannot recommend enough!"

"Tony did a great job. I love my new wall and fireplace. He also did a few small jobs for me. Painting, hanging lights etc. couldn’t have asked for a nicer guy. Also he was there to work when he said he would be and did everything when he said he would. His crew were also very polite and respectful. I highly recommend MDZ Ultimate Builders"

"John is really a good business owner. The crew is neat and cleaning up the site after workday. My roof is steep and a lot of details needed to pay attention in order to finish it right. He did just that and more. He follows up with the job with happy smiles until my satisfaction. I wish that other contractors could be like him then life would be a lot better. Thanks John."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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.

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.

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.
