"Gaby helped us remodel our kitchen. We wanted to keep our existing custom cabinets but modernize the appearance. Gaby transformed the look from a country style kitchen to a more modern, crisp design by: -extending the cabinets about 10” to the ceiling, and adding molding and trim work -replacing faux legs in our island and cooking area with clean edges -building custom decorative panels for the island and columns -removing a cabinet to make room for a beverage center -countless repairs and fixes Gaby also coordinated painting - both the cabinets and the ceiling/walls, and painted over 50 cabinet doors/drawers himself. The painting turned out absolutely beautiful and professional - as if the cabinets were white from the beginning. He also coordinated many of the other jobs, including recommending an electrician for us who was also very reliable and professional. In many ways, he acted like a GC for us in addition to a carpenter. Can’t say enough about Gaby. He is an outstanding, meticulous carpenter. He knows his stuff in and out. He is reliable, prompt, efficient, reasonable, and goes above and beyond to deliver amazing results. Would absolutely recommend him to anyone and already planning other carpentry projects with him in mind. A+, 10/10, fabulous to work with. Thank you Gaby!"

"Moises and his team did an outstanding job repairing our back porch. He was quick to respond to our call and gave a fair estimate. We were happy with the work he did in a short time framework. If we need any type of carpentry or masonry done in the future, we will definitely use his services again."

"Osmin and his team did a great job replacing our triple-decker back porch. He worked with an architect, that he found, to make sure there were no variances required. This made the permitting process quicker. It was a tricky job because building codes have changed since the porch was first built."

"Our experience in selecting Pontes Painting is as follows: four paint contractors visited and surveyed the two story- shingled, sixteen window house to survey the project . I had prepared questions and took notes on each survey, sent an email to each contractor to confirm my notes of their survey, and requested a return confirmation and detailed quotation from each, via email. . Only Pontes Painting replied with an email detailed quotation, with each line item clearly explained. including paint type, manufacturer, color and number of paint coats, surface preparation, number of painters in the crew, schedule and detailed pricing breakdowns, , time to complete the project, warranty and payment terms, along with copies of the 13 house photos taken during R Pontess survey. One of the other contractors visited again in person to review his prepared hand written proposal. *** Pontes Painting was selected., pricing was competitive *** Sept 19, 2023, two, Pontes Painting and vans arrived promptly at 8:00 AM, with a total crew of four including a supervisor who remained on site ( and also painted) the entire day. The crew also included a skilled carpenter/painter. The carpenter completely rebuilt the basement door door frame. The crew was respectful, polite, clean cut, cooperative in every way, complied with several special requests. Safety first for the customer and crew, meaning that the crew took the time at the end of the day to take down the ladders, stack them and place off to the side of the yard walking area at the end of each day Also, they picked up trash & cleaned up each day, never asked for anything or to use our facilities, Email and phone communications with R Pontes was continuously expedient, he gave very good advice to us on what to do and what not to do on color combinations. We are very glad that we took his advice. They re-installed all of our shutters on sixteen windows. The project was completed in two days. We surveyed the project on ( sunny) Thursday(( 9/21) AM, found several spots that needed touch- up. The supervisor returned on that same Thursday afternoon, completed each touch- up to our satisfaction. I had to TIP them. I highly recommend Pontes Painting."

"Rudy and his team from RUDY’S CARPENTRY AND PAINTING were great to work with, he did a thorough walk through to ensure he knew exactly what repairs we needed done, and then was quick to send over an accurate estimate. The work was timely, on budget, with no issues. I appreciated their flexibility and crews' ability in carpentry work. They removed the old rotten wooden posts on our deck and replaced them with new ones from pressure treated wood. I would highly recommend using RUDY’S CARPENTRY AND PAINTING for all kinds of jobs inside and outside of house as this is a very professional and hard working team."

"I hired Bob to fix an exterior door frame that had some rot in it. He was friendly, punctual, and honest about what I did and didn't need done. He came back himself to do the job within a week or so and also explained to me how to maintain the parts that didn't need his help right now. I would hire him again."

"James had to remove some sections of rotten wood at the front entrance first and replace with new material before he could remove an old storm door and replace it with a new full view storm door with new hardware. The front entrance looks great and works great. I will call James for any work I have in and around my house as he does excellent work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

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.
