"I purchased a 4-hr handyman deal through Angie's List for That Contractor Guy. I scheduled a day and time to have a someone come out and complete a 3 item work list. One person arrived and I provided him with the three items. He took care of the first two items within an hour and a half, but was unable to complete the third item(shelf install). Because the first two items took less than 2 hrs to complete, once Muno(owner) arrived he had assured me that he would come back out and handle another small job (replace an exterior light) to essentially cover the original purchase once I purchased the material. During the initial visit, I had also made him aware that I was looking to work with a contractor for some larger jobs(built-ins, update a fireplace and replace some trim). However, after contacting Muno twice to complete the original job, he never responded. Although he and his employee did good work and were obviously competent, the lack of professionalism prohibited me from using or referring That Contractor Guy to anyone else. Since he did not keep his original word to complete such a small job there is no way I could trust him for a larger job. End result is that I found another contractor to perform the 15k in improvements that I had planned to use That Contractor Guy to complete. I only purchased the 4hr deal to help me locate a trustworthy contractor to employ. Unfortunately, this was not a good match for me. "
"A&D stepped in to take on this project when we had to 'fire' the original contractor for a variety of reasons (long story). A&D did the demolition of the old cabinets and coordinated the electrical and plumbing updates, painting, backsplash installation and detail work such as installing a new pantry door. We were installing IKEA cabinets and used a company that does this work for IKEA around the country and the same for countertop fabrication and installation. We had used A&D for water mitigation problems previously and found the company to be reliable, responsive in an emergency, professional, friendly and easy to work with. This was consistently true with the kitchen renovation where there was added complexity with the number of service providers involved. We are starting our next project with A&D in early January with a master bath reno, laundry/utility room repair and installation of new hardwood floors - all being done due to a water leak that A&D handled. A&D has already been involved with this project, providing guidance through the insurance claim process which, through no fault of A&D's, was very frustrating and took months. It's really a relief to have a service provider you can trust."
John called on Friday week before to let me know they might be running behind just a bit and would know more on Monday. He stated that they would be there on Tuesday to get started and it would take a week. He was true to his word and worked hard to get me a beautiful bathroom in a week. He was very professional yet very kind and listened to what I wanted. He was not the cheapest contractor out there but he called and asked if I had made a decision. He follow thru made him the likely candidate to redo my home. I trust his word and his work is a refection of it. He will be doing my master bath in couple of weeks and then on to the kitchen.
"They price he quoted, $800, was less than the actual cost by several thousand dollars. Took when week to complete job. Mike and Phil had a lot of conversations about the color of the paint. Always punctual. Communication between contractor and customer was very poor. He would forget what we spoke about. I was talking more to the painters to get the job done."
Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts
Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces.
Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.
Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.
When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.
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.
