"Kevin and Chris did a great job on our front porch project! They rebuilt the casing around the three posts and installed black steel railing which is sturdy and looks sharp! They were able to rebuild the posts to look like the idea picture we shared prior to starting the project. They were on time, respectful, and communicated with us throughout the project, confirming details regarding design choices, and letting us know next steps. We would definitely work with this team again!"

"Handy Men & Mrs Helper made our dreams come true with a new master bathroom and master bedroom. They helped us design and build a new master suite. They built us a steam shower and installed a beautiful claw footed tub. Their team was professional and answered any questions we had during the process. They kept us updated on time frame throughout the process. We will continue to use them for projects at our house."

"My wife and I made the decision to remodel our kitchen but had no idea what we were doing and only a vague vision of what we wanted it to look like. Ed met with us at our house and brought numerous samples of cabinet doors, flooring and counter tops. He spoke with us at length about our vision for the home and helped us figure out a design. He was upfront and honest, assuring us his company would not be the lowest bid but the quality of their work was unmatched, which ultimately held true. He encouraged us to seek additional bids but after meeting with him we weren't interested in doing so. We hired them to redo our flooring for the majority of the second level of our home and completely remodel our kitchen. It took us a long time to pick our materials and I repeatedly bounced ideas off of Ed. Once we had everything picked out Ed ordered the materials and gave us a time frame for when the job would start. We rented a dumpster to do the demolition ourselves. The company ended up delayed on another job and the start date was pushed back a week. Without us asking, Ed contacted the dumpster company and paid for an extended rental so we wouldn't have to remove everything early. That meant a lot to us. When they started the job was primarily completed by Johnny and Frank. They were always on time, were polite, professional and always willing to address our concerns. They worked in our house when we weren't home and even when we were on vacation, we had no issues whatsoever. When the job was close to complete, Johnny went as far as to clean our upstairs and arrange the furniture to look nice for us. They really go above and beyond. We could not be happier with the work they did. Our kitchen is beautiful now, we are so glad we decided to work with Master Craft and Design. To anyone reading this review, hire this company. Do not waste your time dealing with anyone else."

"Outstanding service.  Installed on time as the order stated.  We used them several months ago to do our outdated reach in closets and they did a great job.  We decided to contact Rich the designer again to see what he could do with our basic shelving in our laundry room. He asked a few questions and emailed us the design that night.  No pressure sales and presented to us what he could build and we got to pick and chose what we wanted completed.  The day of the installation went really well.  Steve came out and installed the shelving.  He also did the install on the initial project we did for our closets.  Quality instal with absolutely no issues.  We would use them again, but we have ran out of closets and storages areas.  I would recommend them to my family and friends.

"Zach and Mike, the owners of Chicagoland Home Products are highly professional, and their products and installation are exceptional. Their team arrives when they say they are going to arrive, they work quietly and efficiently, and never leave a mess when they are finished. Not once was there an issue with the measurements or the install of any of the products - everything has fit like a glove and looks beautiful. I found Chicagoland Home Products three years ago when my house was being built and I was not happy with the closet shelving gentleman that was hired by the builder to do all the closet shelving. I searched and found Chicagoland Products and met with Zach to discuss what I wanted in the closet shelving design. Zach listened carefully and got the designs perfect. We spent several hours at the house going through all the closet spaces, pantry and storage areas. That evening Zach had emailed me the drawings for all the closets; we tweaked a couple things and the drawings were complete the next day. I was amazed at how quickly he had drawings for me. I am immensely pleased with the closets, and especially pleased that the pricing was better than the builder's contractor. The builder has been using Chicagoland Home Products ever since to install closet systems in his houses and condos. The slat board storage system in my garage was the best decision I have ever made - storage is a big problem living in the city and that system has solved that problem... it is wonderful. My window treatments are beautiful. And again, exactly like the closets and the garage, I had a design meeting with Zach at the house and he had drawings and pricing for me in a day. Call Zach, you will not be disappointed."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

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.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.
