"Quality of the work was excellent. Communication was timely and complete. Had complete trust in the contractor as the work was done in Florida while we were living in Ohio. The contractor provided excellent design and selection suggestions. The finish work was high caliber. There was no punch list of follow up work needed. I would highly recommend Epic Home Improvement without question for anyone’s remodeling needs!!!"

"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."

Last year, my husband and I bought a house in a Fort Myers gated golf & tennis community and we wanted to completely renovate the entire house including the kitchen, bathrooms, lanai kitchen and build a new laundry in the house. My husband and I are both very picky and knew that we needed a contractor who could work with us long distance and had good craftsmanship, communication skills and attention to detail. We also knew from renovating our home up North that you get what you pay for. We searched Angie's list, Houzz & the Better Business Bureau and found 2 contractors in the Fort Myers area that met our criteria. After talking to the owner of Luxury Home Solutions (LHS), Norm Bloxham, and Jesse Cueto, project manager, we knew we had found our contractor. We worked with Jesse on our vision, plan and materials. Jesse was absolutely fantastic to work with. He's very organized and he's got great design sense. He’s happy to give you his opinion, but he doesn’t force it. We knew our colors revolved around our Cambria countertop and he respected this. He helped us design our kitchen and new laundry room, and helped us pick out all our materials – flooring, cabinets, tile and paint. Jesse was also a great project manager and communicator. It took several revisions of the design and the contract and Jesse was on top of both. LHS uses a website program called "Basecamp" and during the project, Jesse put up photos so we could see how the work was progressing. Jesse also communicated via texting, phone calls and FaceTime. The subcontractors that LHS employs were very good. The workmanship was excellent and they used quality building materials. LHS didn’t consider the project complete until we were totally satisfied. The bottom line is that we are extremely happy with our home renovation and we would definitely hire LHS again.

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.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

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.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.
