Let’s talk about your projects and making your renovation dreams come true! I’m a highly specialized engineer by day, and have fallen in love with construction projects and real estate; giving homeowners the opportunity to live in a home they truly love and adore. I have years of experience in residential construction from personally owned properties and investments to building custom structures like recording studios. Although I’m not a licensed builder, I’m extremely familiar with codes across labor and skilled trades. Services offered, but not limited to: - Layout and Design for Remodeling - Finished Carpentry (custom woodwork, moulding profiles, entertainment centers, accent walls, etc) - Rough Carpentry and Demolition (new walls, removing/striking walls, framing, etc.) - Electrical (new outlets, switches, light fixtures, ceiling fans, etc.) - Plumbing (sinks, drains, water lines, sump pumps, etc.) - Flooring (LVP, tile, hardwood, and repair, etc.)

"I hired Yianni through a mutual friend, he built me a large laundry room in my basement. The job required creative plumbing, new electrical, and sink drain pumps to push the water up towards my main drain. He was constantly in communication with me about moving forward on the project, the scope, and what to expect as we progressed. He truly cared so much about all the details, and the project was completed successfully. Definitely will hire again!! Thank you, Yianni!"

I've been working in home renovation, repair, and construction on and off since I was 15 years old! I'm very passionate about making a home a more enjoyable and comfortable place to live. I have an obsessive attention to detail and have the ability to come up with creative and unique solutions to make your home a more beautiful place to live. Check out my instagram for recent work I've completed: @lucianowoodworks

"Carlo was very professional and handled things in a timely manner. He built me a large bookshelf and since i don’t have an eye for these things, we worked together on the design until i loved it! He is very patient and knowledgeable so if youre not sure exactly what you need, he’d be the perfect person to help you figure it out. Reasonably priced. Ill be having him come back to put laminate floors down too"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

A bow window costs up to $15,000 to install in total. Materials cost anywhere from $1,200 to more than $14,000, and labor is an additional $300 to $1,900. Bow window costs vary based on the size of the window and the frame material. You’ll spend more for custom features or energy-efficient upgrades, too. For comparison, bay window installation costs about $1,000 to $7,000. 

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.
