"First let me say, they were not the least expensive contractor I talked to. They were one of the three that called back after initial Angi's list contact. They are the ones I felt most comfortable with hiring. A few bumps and oopsies at the start, between getting materials and scheduling but nothing approaching deal breaking. In their defense, I am NAVY trained, and if you say start time is 8AM, I give you a 15 minute window either side of that to be ON STATION READY FOR CALL FOR FIRE. To early is disrespectful, and there is no such thing as "fashionably late" The work it self once started was fantastic. All of them did their best to keep noise and dust to a minimum, and came in did the job and left. I will speak directly about some of the crew that worked on my projects. The crew leader was a gentleman named Ivan. He has one man on his crew named Jose, who did all the inside work. EXTREMELY pleased with Jose's work. Either thru a miss understanding, or a realization of what looked professional, my stair rails are much better than originally planned, because he placed baluster shoes on both the top and bottom of each baluster instead of just the bottom as planned. This gentleman is meticulous in his work, and is also very proud of the work he does, and it SHOWS. If you contract with Requin, ask for Ivan and his crew for your job and then ask Ivan for Jose. (Ivan you need to give him a raise!) So today May 4, they will be over to hopefully finish a few small remaining items. If the rain holds off. I would definitely contract with REQUIN again, and am in fact already considering a couple future projects. Probably won't even worry about a bidding process."

"It went excellently smooth and well. The fence in the driveway was not standing 100% upright as it was wobbly and in its last leg to collapse. The fence is actually belonging to my next door neighbor, but since my car has a self remote parking stuff where it can move forward and a backwards by itself, so with the fence not being upright in the driveway for my car to identify via its sensors, it would often not move backwards or else for me at all. So, I gave in, and hired this nice and friendly gentleman off from on a Angi app. He was able to replace two posts in the next doors yard;s fence to get it back to upright 100%. My car now can finally go forward or in reverse by itself efficiently at last! Thanks! I give this pro a five stars!"

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. 

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
