"Fabulous experience with this highly qualified contractor. He is the fix all go-to person. We are real estate agents who handle many properties. This job was replacing large tiles on floor, painting, carpentry work and minor interior repairs. All done professionally in a quick timely manner."

"Following 2018s Hurricane Michael, Florida Intracoastal Builders restored a bedroom, part of a lg. porch and replaced the roof including repairing trusses. The work was Excellent and finished with good timing. The inspector was impressed and I was very pleased. Following Jan. 2024s tornado, I contracted with them a 2nd time for more extensive work. The AMAZING team rebuilt the garage including trusses, Master Bdrm., 3 closets and 2 bathrooms and more. They replaced electricals, plumbing, flooring, A/C unit, HWH, well house extension and water softening equipment. Also, windows, updated hardiplank siding, multiple doors, insulation, the roof, gutters, painted (inside and outside) and provided extras I requested.....ALL WITH EXCELLENT QUALITY. The team worked consistently until complete. They kept the property, inside and outside, clean and free of nails and clutter. I am 100 % Satisfied. Each inspection passed with praise. They receive my highest recommendation. M.K H."

"Southern Rust Woodworks has the best custom built products around. I have several pieces he has made for me, and I get asked all the time who did them and how to contact him. He can make anything you want! Or if you donâ t have an idea, he has great ideas himself. My house is basically a Southern Rust Woodworks showcase. Love all my pieces and they are excellent quality. Love all his products!!!"

Customers say: Quality work

"John did an amazing job removing an old aluminum frame shower door and installing a new beautiful frameless glass door. Several contractors had said the job was almost impossible and that it would involve tearing out the shower walls. Well, i took a chance on John, who came to look at it and spent a lot of time determining what was needed. He removed the old frame and door with no damage at all to existing shower walls. We chose a door and John ordered it, picked it up and brought it to my condo to install. It was a difficult job but John figured everything out and the new door fits perfectly and adds a modern look to my bathroom. He had to find new screws to work with the shower walls and spent a lot of time making sure everything was perfect. I will be hiring John again to now add tiles inside the shower because I trust him to treat me right pricewise and do a fantastic professional job. I would hire John for any type work. I will be showing off my new door to my neighbors and recommending John for any work. John truly cares about the quality of his work and always wants to make sure the customer is happy. I am a very happy and satisfied customer."

Small jobs welcome

"I had an excellent experience with Building Legacies Handyman Services! Jeremy came out to install my stove and dishwasher, and he was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and respectful from start to finish. He took his time to make sure everything was installed correctly, tested everything before leaving, and made sure the area was clean when the job was finished. Jeremy was friendly, dependable, and clearly takes pride in the quality of his work. It is hard to find someone who is both skilled and genuinely cares about doing the job right, but he definitely delivered. I would highly recommend Building Legacies Handyman Services to anyone needing work done in their home. I will absolutely be calling them again for future projects. Five-star service all the way!"

Customers say: Terrific value

We are a small family business with a big family heart! I have 6 children and an amazing wife that I live for! I have been in the residential construction line of work for 12 years. I love what I do! Making someones home change for the better, and working with the client through-out the process is my kind of challange. I love showing the final product and seeing the look on the clients face when we finish! At the end of each job, I can say to myself ( we upgraded not just their home, but their lives).

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

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.

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.
