"They did a really good job and they stand behind their work. The prices are competitive and they take pride in their work. I had a really old front door that was not insulated and they put in a new one with plenty of insulation. They also put in a new storm door and a garage side door that meant making a new doorway that's sealed properly. They answered all my questions and were respectful of the property"

"All of the work on my garage was done in a very professional manner and left me very pleased with the end result. Throughout my experience with Swartz Builders they were very honest and straightforward with me about their availability, the cost of different options, and how long they would need to do the job right. Probably the thing that I liked most about Swartz was that they were very honest with me up front when I called for a quote on my job. I worked directly with the president of the company (who did a great job checking up with me throughout the job and making sure I was happy) and he told me right up front that they were too busy to give me a quote at the time with the reality that they were swamped with work already and would not be able to do the work for me for 6 months or more. I appreciated that they told me the truth rather than trying to cram my job in with all the others and not give me the attention I would need. The president even gave me names of other contractors that he believed could complete the work for me in a timely fashion based on my project description. I was not diligent enough in pursuing these other contractors, but it was nice that he tried to help me out even though it wouldn't make him any richer for his effort. It just happened to work out that I was not in a rush to get the job done and I called them back some months later to see when they could fit me in. At this point they had some free time coming up and they told me they would get my job started first thing when the weather warmed up in the spring (I live in Michigan and an outdoor project like mine is no fun in the winter). They came out with snow still on the ground to look over the garage and give me a quote. They gave me plenty of options to obtain the desired result that I wanted with more or less cost involved and I agreed to have them come out and perform the work. I was assigned a very nice job manager which I became well acquainted with throughout the time the project was ongoing. He always called me or spoke with me in person every day that work was being carried out and he made sure to contact me immediately if any unforeseen circumstances came up that delayed any work. Another observation I made is that the job manager had no trouble with me sticking around and viewing their work which says a lot about their practices and pride in what they were doing. He also took time to explain different improvements to me, why some work had to be done a certain way per code or best practice, and he worked through different design decisions with me that needed to be made on the spot. Every day of the project the job manager and any other employees helping him out would show up in a timely fashion, would work hard to get the job done (as long as the weather allowed it), and cleaned up after themselves at the end of the day. The end result looks great and I had no problem paying for their work. The individuals I worked with were great to deal with on a professional and personal level and I had no qualms about leaving them on their own to complete my garage project. I would highly recommend this company for any type of general construction or re-modelling project you may have!

"Renaissance Restorations did a great job. They were on time, performed the work as agreed and even added some details and features beyond what we agreed. When performing the installation, they felt a more detailed and complicated build would look better so they made the changes at no charge. I would hire them again without reservation."

"Clark builders did a good job! Of course most of it was done during the pandemic when supplies were low or out of stock. We’ve been happy with the work they’ve done and would recommend them to anyone looking to build new home!"

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

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.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.
