"Considering the age of the home (over 100 years), where many unknowns were expected and encountered, the job went well. The quality demanded by the contractor was exceptional. Areas that needed updating were not neglected, instead improved using high-quality materials and workmanship. The new edition blends well into the original structure."

"I am genuinely impressed with the quality of the job of this company, from the first conversation to the final walkthrough it was clear for me that they knew exactly what they were doing, they paid attention to details that other companies probably ignore, they work clean, combine skills, honesty and reliability at the highest level, If you don?t want a contractor that overpromise and underdeliver, hire them!."

From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to every detail. They listened to our ideas, offered helpful suggestions, and delivered exactly what they promised. The quality of the workmanship is outstanding, and the project was completed with clear communication throughout the entire process. Our new kitchen is beautiful. We highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled, and professional remodeling team."

"They did a beautiful job and are all are top notch guys. They are nice people and are easy to get a hold of. They took out a partial wall, put in new cabinets, counter tops, lighting and re-textured the walls and the ceiling. In the bathroom they replaced everything including the flooring. I used to be an insurance adjuster and I have seen a lot of work done in my previous years. This company is one of the best. I would highly recommend them and I would definitely hire them again."

"Highly recommend! Juan and Joel were very good to work with! They did a fabulous job and went above and beyond. They searched for soft close hardware to fit our cabinets and drove an hour each way to pick up the proper hinges. They show up on time and finished in record time! Would highly recommend Juan and Joel at Classy Restoration!"

"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

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

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.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.
