"Solarshield has been an excellent company to work with-from
the sales representitive, who gave a careful explanation of the work to be
done, the office manager, Renee, who was always there to answer any questions
and to keep us up to date as to where we were in the queue, the owner, Frank
McKinney, who patiently answered our questions and checked the work as it was
being done and, especially the crews working on the roof, who, often, worked
long hours to fiinish a task. We were able to receive a redution on our
homeowners insurance and our electric bill. Oh yes, and the roof-excellent.

"After I signed the contract and gave my deposit, I had a hard time getting responses on details, i.e. when they were coming to measure, etc.  Calls would go unreturned.  A couple of times, workers showed up unannounced to measure.  This was very odd.  Ultimately, they did a good job installing the garage door and the shutters for the front door, and their price was good.

"We hired Martinez to restore our floors and staircase. They are professional and extremely knowledgeable when it comes to wood floors. Honest man and will charge you what he needs to do a good job. I have been on the construction industry for a few a years now, I know what to look for in a company when I am doing a remodeling. I can tell you that Mr. Martinez answered every single one of the questions I threw at him with concrete answers, demonstrating his knowledge and experience. He was on time to provide the estimate and took his time to go over the floors in detail. Fellow homeowners need to pay attention to this, if a contractor takes the time to explain you things and review the job with you, it's a good sign. I also have to say that this was the third company we asked an estimate from. The first company wanted to replaced the whole floor, which I knew it was a rip off. The second one gave us an insane price like if money was grown on trees. However, Martinez was very reasonable in price and what we like was that since the first time he saw the project, he told us that the floor will look like new with a hard sanding. We moved everything out of the house, my suggestion is to hire a moving company, that way you make sure your furniture and belongings are well take care of. The crew is also very nice and respectful, will pay attention to detail, and will clean after they finish. The sanding is the worst part, but it's not something you can't tolerate; they have machines that make little dust, trust me, we stayed in the house and my wife is allergic to everything. When that part is done, everything else is a breeze. At the beginning, we were going to leave it natural, but my wife decided she wanted to stain the floor. So we chose and Ebony color, very gorgeous. We really like it a lot. The job took around 7 days to be completed and the floor really look amazing. We are very content with our new-looking hardwood flooring and we really appreciate everything Martinez floor did to make it happen. We'll be referring them to friend and family for sure."

"Tim was very responsive from day one.  The job was on a cabin about 3 hours from where I live and he updated me regularly on the progress of the work. With the rain we have had this summer, the job turned into much more than he had bargained for (or quoted for)...but he stuck with it until the job was completed.  The work he did for me turned out great and I would highly recommend him to anybody looking for a hard working and honest contractor who does excellent work.

"I had beyond a great experience with Contractors on Demand! It started on the first contact with Felipe, which was very clear about the work I was getting done at my house, step by step. Their work got me speechless and I already referred them to many friends and family, as we are always looking for the best to get any work done."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects.
