"Perfect. They did excellent work. Very professional and very clean as well. I don't think another carpenter could have done what needed to be done as well as Carlos did. I am extremely pleased."

"I had the pleasure of working with Robert Gonzalez, the owner of DVG Property Management, and my experience exceeded all expectations. Robert is not just a general contractor; he is a consummate professional who brings a level of detail-oriented expertise that is truly commendable. One of the standout qualities of Robert is his unwavering professionalism. From the initial consultation to the completion of the project, he demonstrated a commitment to excellence that instilled confidence. His approach is systematic and thorough, ensuring that every aspect of the job is handled with precision. Detail-oriented doesnâ  t begin to cover Robertâ  s meticulous work. His attention to the finer points of the project was evident at every stage. Whether it was in the planning phase, execution of tasks, or the final touches, Robert consistently displayed a keen eye for detail. This level of precision undoubtedly contributes to the overall quality of his work. Communication is a key element in any successful collaboration, and Robert excels in this regard. He kept me informed throughout the project, providing regular updates on progress and addressing any concerns promptly. This transparent and open line of communication fostered a positive working relationship and added a layer of trust to the entire process. Trustworthiness is a trait that cannot be overstated when it comes to a general contractor, and Robert proved to be someone you can rely on. His honesty and integrity were evident from the beginning, creating a sense of trust that allowed me to confidently entrust my project to him. Knowing that he operates with transparency and integrity is invaluable in this industry. Honesty goes hand in hand with trust, and Robertâ  s straightforward and truthful approach was refreshing. He was upfront about timelines, costs, and any potential challenges that might arise during the project. This level of honesty not only demonstrates his integrity but also helps in making informed decisions throughout the construction process. Beyond his professional prowess, Robertâ  s pleasant demeanor made the entire experience enjoyable. Despite the inevitable challenges that arise in construction projects, his positive attitude remained unwavering. This not only created a positive working environment but also showcased his dedication to client satisfaction. In conclusion, my experience with Robert Gonzalez and DVG Property Management was exceptional. His professionalism, attention to detail, effective communication, trustworthiness, honesty, and pleasant demeanor make him a standout general contractor. I wholeheartedly recommend Robert to anyone seeking a reliable and skilled professional for their property management needs. Working with him was not just a construction project; it was a partnership built on trust, transparency, and a shared commitment to excellence."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

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.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.
