"Oh we can't say enough about Rueben and his crew.. the work was top notch and talk about craftsmanship, there is no comparison.. we were on a budget and they came through and made everything work. We had a sunroom and bath added to our h ome and we just love them. The crew of guys were always very polite and just a great group of young men doing the best job we could of imagined. Ruben was always on top of the job, making sure things were done right. He came every day to check on his crew and asked if we had any concerns. So on that note if you need any construction on your home or business give this company a call, you won't be sorry."

"The pictures do not really show how tedious this job was. These two men, associated with Ask Michael, gave me a quote to rehang a number of my kitchen cabinate doors. They had been badly done prior to my purchase of the house and were failing, to the point of falling off. They purchased the necessary hardware, came back the next day and did the installation. They were on time and worked until the job was finished. Their work quality and concern to get the work done correctly was top drawer. And they were honest, telling me the quote for materials was high, and revising their bill lower. Overall I was very happy and will use them again."

"Exploring home maintenance projects, I contacted Angi and interviewed 2 listed companies. Oreo Maintenance proved an excellent choice. The contractor contacted me promptly, followed with an onsite visit and same day estimate. I determined to consider options of pursuing the projects in 2024 or Spring of 2025 over 3 months, finally agreeing to complete in October of 2024. Once the contract was approved and signed the craftsman arrived for overview of the project and arranged to begin promptly advising me of an expected time frame for completion, considering weather and season of this year. Professionalism and integrity are earmarks of this agency. I received regular communication and approval as the work progressed. Project completed in a timely manner. Quality of the work excellent. Great Job. Brings to mind the generations of craftsman and businessman who perform by reputation. Always put your name of what you do. Highly Recommend these guys. Thanks"

"This was first experience with home remodeling. I recently purchased my first home, and the bathroom needed quite a bit of work. I was referred J & L Brothers Remodeling from a friend at work. I was very happy with every aspect of this process. They were very helpful with working within my budget, working around my schedule at work, helping me choose finishes, and completing the job on time and within budget."

"Axiom did a fantastic job on our kitchen remodel, which involved adding an extension on the small existing kitchen and adding a new pantry and a new bathroom downstairs. They remodeled our upstairs bathroom too. All well done. The new kitchen is gorgeous. (Those pics of the kitchen with navy blue cabinets, white counters, and bamboo floors-that's ours.) We love it. So does everyone who sees it. Still can't believe how great it turned out. We have an old home (built ca. 1910) that needs a ton of work. The old kitchen had to be completely gutted. Extension, additional structural supports, a door moved, new windows added. And a new floor right down to the joists. The whole thing. It was a huge, complicated job. I talked to several contractors as well as a designer and structural engineer so I knew a bit of what we were getting into. So I was looking for a company I could really work with and trust. Axiom came through. The owners really care about doing high quality work. The company eliminates many of the problems people often have with contractors (like never being to get an answer back or know what's going on with the job) because one partner handles the logistics / materials ordering, and the other manages the construction site. One or the other got back to me right away whenever I asked a question, and they kept me posted about what was going on. We ran into some unexpected (and expensive) problems-that's an old house for you! But they let me know what was going on immediately so I could make decisions about what needed to be done and keep an eye on my budget. The construction manager also has a great sense of design. He really helped me figure out how to make the space work. (Ended up using his ideas more than anything the designer had given me. Glad I did.) Their entire crew was great too. Helpful. Polite. Got the job done. And dealt with any problem that came up."

"We hired SAL to install new ceramic tile floors in our hall bath, master bath, & master hallway. They also put in new 3/4 cherry hardwood floors in my master bedroom. The craftsmanship was immaculate. He shows up on time, worked on my job everyday till it was done, cleaned up at the end of the day, & most importantly was very respectful to me & my family. I am so pleased with the work that I would recommend SAL to everyone!!!! Great work, great price, great guy!!!

"I contacted World Painting after CertaPro dropped out of sight.  We quickly got an appointment with them and they were ready to give us a bid that day.  The price was reasonable and it included power washing, caulking, and painting our porch floor along with the entire house.
They were able to start within the week and kept us updated through out the project, letting us know what was the next step and when it would be completed.  Customer service was excellent.  When I had a question they called me back within the hour. 
They did an amazing job and we have gotten tons of compliments on it.  We would definitely use them again.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
