James Finn, at Finn Builders, specializes in remodeling and home renovations. I run a company that allows you to impress your guests and enjoy the new style of a custom kitchen or bathroom. You will boast about your new space, even before we get finished. For over 25 years, Finn Builders has been the solution for many families upgrading their space into something spectacular and brand new.

"I have an extensive experience with Finn's builders (Chris, James, and Kenny) Over the last 3 years they have revamped my ranch style house with innovative ideas, and expert solutions: rebuilding walls and floors of a veranda, redesigning the interior stairs to the basement. They painted and re-organized the garage. They installed Anderson windows in 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms They repaired a walking shower, came up with a clever solution for an uncomfortable shower system. Likewise, they installed electrical outlets and lighting in the living rooms and painted 3 rooms with maximum efficiency and minimum fuss. I like their working style and their ingenuity. I rely on their team for keeping my house in shape and my mind at peace. I recommend them without reservation."

"Windows were replaced in a very timely and efficient manner. Cunha construction is professional, kind and has great prices. From measuring the windows, to picking them up from the warehouse and installing them, they made the process for me easy and stress free. I am extremely happy with their work and would not hesitate to call them again for any future house projects needed."

At Atlas-Coles Overhead Door Sales, we have been taking pride in our work, products, and customer service for over 65 years. Over the years, we’ve built a loyal clientele that have helped us shape our expertise in the garage door industry. Family-owned and operated since 1947. Toll-Free (877) 828-5279. Professional operation with new installations, service & repair at all times.

"The initial work was done in a day and it seemed to have gone smoothly, but then after a month the garage door seemed to not work properly. The garage door would hesitate when initially lifting up and the motor was not as quiet. I had them come out a couple of times to double check everything and they said everything was fine. After 6 months it just got worse and worse. I finally called another garage door company and they said that the motor was possibly defective. I called Altas again to have them determine if the motor was defective, but they never returned my calls or came our again. I had the second garage door company come out to look at it and they determined that the motor was not defective, but that it was installed incorrectly."

ALL work is done on a "TIME PLUS MATERIALS" basis. Although we may hazard a guess on the general BALLPARK your repairs may cost, it is impossible to know every detail of everything we run into in the kind of work we do. Therefore we do NOT give estimates. "With estimates someone always loses." With an estimate either you are paying to much, or your contractor is doing sloppy work to come in on price. It could also mean we end up working for free, and given the portion of what we charge that end up in our pockets, we couldn't afford that. We DO NOT pad our prices out to insure the safety of overcharging for each job; instead we charge a fair job for what we run into. We are sorry, but if you are not okay with us using the standard of "time plus materials" for handyperson work, you will have to look elsewhere. Our long term clients have come to know that sometimes the price is very low, and sometimes it can be higher, but that, in the long run, it averages out to be a great deal and it is always fair.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Generally completed within a couple of hours, depending on damage extent.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Not all wood that’s been softened by termites needs to be replaced. You may be able to salvage wood using a wood hardener instead of replacing beams. However, you’ll need to hire a structural engineer to assess the damage and the overall stability of the wood before making a replacement plan.

Yes, you can hammer a nail into a wall stud. But before you do, it’s important to confirm that you’re actually nailing into a stud—and not wiring, pipes, or ductwork. To check, find a few more studs in the wall, then measure to make sure they’re either 16 or 24 inches apart.
