"This job was a complicated simply because I had another contractor working in the house at the same time. SD Flooring, LLC worked diligently to get the job done. I also made changes to areas where the floor needed changes all throughout the job the attitude was always with a smile and willing to go out of their way to finish and return on occasions. . A five star is not enough. They are set aside from the rest. A 10 category would apply! Bravo! Danielle is a perfectionist and a magnificent person to deal with along with his staff Adrian who was very competent and caring. . I recommend SD Flooring, LLC highly."

"Josh, Jay, Tommy and their crew were all extremely professional, conscientious and very respectful. They honestly went above and beyond and when they said "the most important thing is that you are happy with the job" they meant it. Had to tweak a few things here and there and truly aimed to please. Can't say enough good things about the philosophy of this company and their employees...you won't be disappointed. They did a total renovation of the front yard and lanai landscaping..nothing but compliments from the neighbors.."

"This is one of the most impressive service companies we have ever worked with for any kind of work done on our house. We were leaving for a long time away and one of the storm shutters would not work. They understood the need to get it done and came within a few days of the call. Brandon came with another repair person and they were amazing. The job required replacement of the motor. They had the part and installed it and checked all the other shutters. The whole service from start to finish was first class and they arrived on time. We had called the large company to whom we had paid about $60,000 for the installation of the shutters, but they were weeks out and charged a fee just to set up the appointment. We are moving into a new home and Ft. Myers will definitely get our business for the installation of new shutters there."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

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.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.
