"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

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.
