"We've had lots of contractors over the years, and none has been as responsive, punctual, and responsible as this crew. Gustavo took the time to explain the entire process, kept us updated on progress, and explained clearly that the previous deck support was not to code - and fixed that for what we're pretty sure was a lot less than others might have asked for in that situation. He also repurposed the old deck lumber to build us a nifty grill deck! This crew is a professional group and were a pleasure to have around our home. Extra credit for dealing with our pack of rescue dogs!"

"I never contacted the provider or used this service in anyway. I have to
write this review so that the request to write this review stops
popping up.
The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit.

"Once I sent her all the measurements, it took her a little while to get the options back to me.  Overall, they're good designs.  However, they're very simplistic and give general ideas for space planning.  I was hoping to have a better idea for sizes of furniture for the space and some variations on staging.  
Jill was very responsive when I did have a question.  I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a virtual design done.  If we lived in similar cities, I'd probably use her again for help with additional designs.

"Work was done on schedule. The salesman was not pushy. Down to earth. The guy who took the measurements very knowledgeable and polite. The 2 installers did a really good job. They were very Respectful and followed my requests. They cleaned up fairly good. My Windows look good and all work properly. One complaint is that no one from the company followed up after installation."

"Carpenters Complete Inc installed a new bathroom in my home at a great cost. Matt (owner) quickly responded to my estimate inquiries and was prompt to come out and give a free estimate. He had alot of ideas that were inexpensive and was wonderful to work with. Matt was available to answer any questions or concerns i had throughout the whole process. He was patient and personable and i loved my experience with this company. He also gave me a great deal on storm shutters as he installs those as well."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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. 

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.
