"Bill from Tropicana was amazing. His company offers what every home owner desires in the contractor they hire. Knowledgeable and experienced, prompt and courteous, Bill was meticulous in every aspect of my project. From planning, installation and clean up, every detail was handled with care. I always felt comfortable leaving him alone in my house. He was even good with my dogs! Last but not least he made my project affordable. I received a BEAUTIFUL tiled shower for "pennies" more than one of those prefabricated inserts. I am lucky to have hired him, and would give a verbal recommendation to anyone considering his services."

"I could not ask for a better contractor than Norm Bloxham and his team. In fact, I was so happy with the service they provide that I not only used them to build a large custom home for my husband and I twelve years ago, I used them again to work on this very complicated custom buildout of our new condo. Norm Bloxham and my Foreman, Jesse Cueto, went above and beyond on this very difficult project. The level of professionalism Norm and his team bring to the table is excellent from start to finish. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top notch contractor."

"

I had a supply line break in my guest bathroom which flooded my entire home.  Drimaxx was there that evening (very quickly) and immediately started the work to get the water out.  They took care of everything. I just watched.  After getting the water out they removed all damaged flooring and wall boards.  They set up fans and dehumidifiers.  Brian and his employees made an unbearable situation a lot less stressful.  The team was always professional, polite and made me feel comfortable that I was in good hands. The work took several days and I was secure with them being in my home while I was not there. I would use this company again if I needed to and would refer them to others.

"This was a long process, and long project for them. We started in October 2009, and went to January or February of 2010. It was a long process, that had a lot of work. They did a good job. The house was built in 1974, and had dropped ceiling. I mean at that time I didn't get prices, so I didn't have anything to compare with. As far as the work they did. They had subcontractors that did work that I couldn't tell you who the were, that was on his end. He had gotten them to do it, and the concrete done. I had the driveway widen four foot. I had some concrete they re-poured over that the contractor didn't do, the sub person didn't do a very good job. They skimped on material and stuff. I cant hold it against them really."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.
