"We are so happy to have selected CCCM for this large project! Most other applicants were all about money up front, but not CCCM. This is a family business that takes pride in a job well done. Terry, Jodie and Brian are a pleasure to have in your home and worked very hard to make this project come alive. They helped us with the planning process, communication is excellent, and once started on the job they will work every day untill completed. I am a professional engineer and can be hard to please, but I was impressed with the quality of workmanship. attention to detail, and willingness to do all the plans submittal and permits required (important). Thanks to Terry, Jodie and Brian for the good work and low stress. I look forward to the next remodel project with CCCM Inc."

"I am so grateful to Grandview Construction for our beautiful, new kitchen and master shower! They also painted our entire first floor including the trim. Our experience with Jeremy and his wonderful crew was A+mazing! Their workmanship was excellent, and Jeremy was very communicative and responsive throughout the entire process. The crew was friendly, professional and clearly experts at what they do. One of them has almost 30 years of experience in the industry. Jeremy and his crew provided many helpful details about the project from start to finish and was quick to let us know if any issues arose. When they had to make any adjustments they explained the reasons and were very patient in answering all of our questions and since this was our very first kitchen remodel we had a lot of questions. The project was completed on time and stayed within the very fair competitive estimate he gave us in the beginning, and we could not be happier with the gorgeous finished product. We will work with them on any other project we might do on our home, and I would recommend Grandview Construction without any reservation to anyone who is looking for a dependable and honest general contractor to work on their house."

Customers say: Super punctual

"I first contacted Angelo In December due to his Special Deal. At that time he came over and gave me a sort of cursory in-home inspection, following it up with an offer to do everything I wanted (which at that point included replacing the floor but not the new corner) for $10K. I put his offer aside and collected more offers, all of which were much higher. In February I contacted him again and asked him about his offer; he replied that he would need to come back over because he could not remember the property well. This time--with the new corner and no floor, and with new appliances included--he quoted me 14K, still by far the lowest I had seen. I accepted.
Two weeks later, in March, he began. At the time, he said things would take about two weeks. They took six. To be fair, some of that delay is not altogether his fault: he had originally thought to replace the soffits, only to discover upon starting to remove them that they house vents. (I did wonder, though, why he had not checked that before ordering cabinets.) It took an extra ten days for new cabinets to be built, as Angelo's cabinets are all made to order.
When work was done, it was generally done well. He was entirely amenable to the selections we made for appliances, for the granite countertops, for the backsplash, for the faucet, etc., and his people did a good job installing them. I'd love to say the same about the installation of the cabinets themselves--and for the most part I can--but there were issues I don't quite understand: why some doors were not installed properly, why the two lazy susan cabinets were both filled with construction dust that I needed to clean up after the fact, etc. I also don't really understand why the twin patches on the soffit walls were never sanded down (and still are not, as I am going to need to throw a tarp over my entire kitchen to do so).
I am writing a lot of complaints, and I guess it sounds as if I am really unhappy when that is not actually the case. I am very happy with my new kitchen. Every time I go into it I smile. The cabinets are lovely, the granite is beautiful, the backsplash is perfect, the appliances are wonderful: it is exactly right (other than what I speak of here). But if you are going to use Angelo, you need to understand what you'll be getting.
He is a very nice man, and he does good work. But he has a few problems that are the reason I would not use him again. First and foremost is communication: the number of phone calls and emails that went unanswered became extremely frustrating. It did help a little that I made the discovery that Maria, who works in his office, is actually his daughter--she accidentally copied me on a family message--so I could bug her more personally than I otherwise would have to get after him, but still that should not have to happen. When he does respond, his English is very fractured and he composes messages on iPhone apparently using the voice to text command, so it's often an adventure making any meaning of what he writes.  This is one actual email:
we're at hour home, can't need be tomorrow or at 10:0 /11: am or next Saturday
Another problem, which is different but in some ways also a facet of communication, is the fact that he changes schedules without alerting us of the changes. Huge example: appliance delivery. He ordered the appliances from Abt and told us they would be delivered on a Thursday morning. His backsplash guys were working on the same day. When the appliance guys came, the backsplash guys were nearing a break but not there yet. The appliance guys asked if they could do another delivery in the area and come back afterwards; of course I said that was fine. It was about noon. The day wore on...and on...and on...and they did not come back. Eventually I called Abt, around 5:00, wondering where the heck they were. I was told they were scheduled for delivery on Friday, and they had never been scheduled for Thursday at all. Impossible! I told them. They were actually here already today! Abt told me they didn't know what to say and I should call my contractor, so I did. Angelo, when he got back to me, told me that he had canceled the delivery because he didn't think the backsplash would be dry enough.
That's just one example. He did things like that a lot: saying a thing would happen on a Wednesday so we'd wait for someone who never showed up. Sometimes it was Angelo himself we waited for who did not show up and did not call. AS I WRITE THIS I am still waiting for him to return to fix a hinge on a cabinet that he has told me several times he would be here to fix and has not shown up for. 
I like Angelo. I think he is a fair man who ultimately does good work. But my husband and I also found it very, very difficult to work with him at times, and if we had this to do again I think we would have made a different choice.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.
