"Richard was excellent when he came to review the work needed. The price was competitive with other contractors. However the final product was not so excellent. I would say my expectations were greater than the final product. Cleanup left a little to be desired"
"General Contractor of exceptional caliber. Thank you for your hard and remarkable work, dedication to delivering high-quality results, My husband and I loved the remodel of our living room and kitchen. It exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended."
"The Prime Contractor was amenable to making contractual changes before the project began; this was greatly beneficial to assuaging customer concerns. The majority of sub-contractors performed assigned tasks without incident, all without any accidents—and all were insured. The final product resulted in a detached garage with framing, roofing, gutters, doors, windows, electrical and plumbing that are worthy or show-casing first-rate craftsmanship. I am extremely pleased with the final result and would readily work with this company again on future projects."
"I should start by saying that I was on a very tight budget which really did not match with my dreams. I had many disappointments with contractors in the past - lost my historic home in Fort Lauderdale and $90,000.00 because of unscrupulous contractors. Long story. Anyway, I had understandable fears as I embarked on the venture of updating my tiny home in Ocala. Dan Spaulding was my first contact. We spent quite some time on the planning part of the work - MANY emails back and forth exchanging ideas. He was always patient with me. Took me shopping for tile and flooring and granite. Eased my panic attacks, made excellent suggestions, and made many trips to the house during the time the work was done. Tom Steppen and his assistant were the hands-on guys. You've heard the expression "jack of all trades, master of none" ? Well Tom is a MASTER of all trades, in my opinion. The quality of his work was excellent. He and his assistant, Jay, were perfectionists through all phases of the work. They had subcontractors come in for some plumbing and electrical work. The only downside was really caused by me. I made several changes as we went along and drove Tom crazy, which created friction between us. It's really hard to anticipate certain things until the work is in progress and then you get ideas. Too many visits to Houzz kept my mind whirling. So try to have everything nailed down before work starts - and then stay off of HGTV and Houzz until the work is completed. I am exceedingly pleased with the outcome and highly recommend Steppen and Spaulding. "
"Very good, on time arrival, completed job, good house keeping. Also fix front door as some settling happened. Overall very good job and would highly recommend this contractor"
"Excellent, amazing! They were on time ,actually ahead of schedule. They were professional, they cleaned up,no additional costs just a great company. The owner who is very nice was present for the entire job. Every time I called or E-mailed they responded immediately. By far the best experience I have ever had with a contractor or any company. The Roof has made a huge difference in our home air comfort and the electric costs are down 20-30%."

"Our toilet seat snapped off and needed to be replaced. We thought this might be something we could do ourselves (we do not consider ourselves to be 'handy'), but to be prepared, we researched a few contractors. We sent a message through Angie's List asking if they could install a toilet seat (soft close seat for a Toto Dual Flush toilet). We received a quick response from Frank Pellerito asking us to provide details in order for them to send us a price quote. We appreciate the promptness. However, after contacting Toto online, we received the information we needed to tackle the job ourselves. "

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.
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.
