"Superior work from start to finish. I had very little idea on what I wanted for my kitchen remodel. I just knew I wanted it to be perfect. Nick took all the guesswork out of it for me. He drew up a design and gave me ideas based on what I described I was looking for. Nick even met me at the store to help me pick out my finishings! Every detail from the hinges, to handles, backsplash and granite Nick helped me pick out. Beautiful craftsmanship, I’ve never seen anything like it and he even threw in some extra surprises!! You do not get quality or service like this at a big box store or from other contractors. My kitchen is absolutely stunning and anyone that has ever seen it is amazed at the beauty. I’m looking forward to the future projects we have planned. Nick will be the only contractor that I ever hire going forward. I even fired my husband! I had an exterior door installed as well. What we previously had was an inswing door installed backwards so it swang out. Nick picked out a door based on what I was looking for, had it professionally painted the colors I chose and installed it in a day. He took care of any issues that came about from switching to an outswing. No more drafts or cold floor. Love my new door!!"

I am a home repair & services specialist. My usual answer to your repair problem will be, "I can fix that" or "I can do that" or "I can build that." I usually work alone, but have manpower available if we need it.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

If you’re considering buying a home with known termite damage, you can negotiate with the seller to lower the costs of the house. They might be able to make the damage repairs before handing over the keys or lower the asking price before the deal is agreed upon. It’s vital though that even if you’re winning the negotiation, a home inspection contingency might be a good idea in case of future issues.

Yes, a bowed wall can be straightened in several ways. If the bowing is minimal, it can often be straightened by installing anchors or straps. For more severe basement wall bowing, your contractor might need to excavate the soil outside the foundation and pull the wall back into its original position to straighten it.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

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.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.
