"Carlos is an amazing carpenter! He has completed multiple large projects in our home. Specifically: (i) stabilizing old wood floors; (ii) constructing custom made bookshelves & desk; and (iii) creating an absolutely gorgeous hand rail for our staircase. His prices are reasonable and his professionalism is exceptional! We highly recommend Carlos for all your home project needs."

"This was an expert job from start to finish. The workmen arrived when they said they would, they cleaned up at the end of the day and made sure I was ok with the items they were leaving and where they were placed for the evening. During the workday, they never seemed to stop. They arrived prepared and ready to work. These guys clearly know what they are doing and care about doing a professional job with a good attitude and fair prices. I can't speak highly enough about this team. B.C.G. Building Solutions will be my first call when I need anything done to keep my house in good shape. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars because they deserve it. I am so pleased with the finished room from top to bottom."

"Professionalism every step of the way; from the initial estimate, to installation and follow up. Marvin Padilla explained every possible layout and option and really took the time to listen to our design. No high-pressure sales tactics, just quality, friendly proposal. We hired them to do a front garden retaining wall and a patio in the back. Day of installation the crew of 6 show up and hit the ground running; took them 1 1/2 days to complete both jobs and we couldn't be happier with the results. We've already gotten lots of compliments from neighbors who are now interested in their work. If I'm ever in need again of stonework or landscaping services, I'm not looking anywhere else!"

"This review is late in coming and that is on me. My home looks fabulous, Mike and his crew did replacement windows, sided whole house and gave me 2 new porches. Looks like a whole new house. Does top notch work and great to work with. Very professional, and treated my house like his own, had a lot of great suggestions. Mike was on the job everyday and his guys were great, and you didn't even know they were there when they left, cleaned up great. Could not beat his prices for the quality of work. I highly recommend Mike to do any job you need on your home. Will definitely be using him again."

"Alexandr did excellent work, he asked questions, clarified what needed to done, and did it all in one day. I had previously contacted another company that does deck repairs. They gave me an estimate and Iâ ve been waiting for two months to get scheduled. I recently purchased the house and the deck needed work. I had boards and hand rails replace and it was stained and sealed. I would highly recommend Leon Pro Services."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.

Tipping contractors, builders, or general contractors is not customary or expected. Unlike many service professions where tipping is built into the payment structure, construction professionals typically charge a full rate for their services. However, you may choose to tip a worker for exceptional service, such as if they go above and beyond, stay late to meet a deadline, or work on a holiday weekend. Before offering a tip, it's a good idea to ask about the company's policy, as some prohibit their employees from accepting gratuities. If you want to show your appreciation for a job well done without giving a cash tip, consider writing a positive online review or offering to serve as a reference for potential new customers.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Balusters provide vertical support to make sure your stair railing and/or deck is as sturdy and safe as possible. These spindles help hold up the railing so people walking up or down stairs have something strong to hold onto. They can also act as a unique design element if they’re custom-made to suit a specific style or size requirement.

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.
