"We were very excited to hire them, however they lied to us since day ONE. We were told they would be 3 men working instead we ended up with HALF a man. We were getting charge constantly for things that we already paid for and when we questioned Wendy she would get upset and try to offer us way for them to keep our money. They were very unprofessional, leaving spits bottle all over my house. DO NOT let the pictures you see online fool you, Casey is an amateur he would sit and watch how to do things on YouTube. Letâ s not forget they are very indolent we were told they work 9-3 they NEVER work a full day, they donâ t respect timeline they were hired to work 4 months in our house they worked MAYBE 5 full weeks out of the 4 months. We love our kitchen but thatâ s because 99% of the work were done by other people(our cabinets and granite) If you are able to record every conversation you have with them please do, because THEY ARE LIARS they would tell you one thing and do the complete opposite. The quality of work they do DOES NOT worth the amount of money they will charge you. If you are looking for sloppy work, work that is falling apart while theyâ re still on site, unfinished work look no further"

I'm just a guy looking to help other people, with reasonable rates and several trades under my belt, I am willing to help with anything from general handy work to construction, or even landscaping. There really isn't much I am not willing to do.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

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.
