"Great experience with this contractor. I had a couple areas on the front of my home where the soffit had pulled away from the fascia and they fixed this plus a couple other areas they found. Right on time, very professional work, looks like brand new. Highly recommended."

"First let it be known that I have waited a period of time after completion as I wanted this to be a honest not a plain and acirc;??P***** Offand acirc;?? review. Details: my start date was set for the contractor to be out first thing on 5/28/14. I took the week off from work to be sure that anything that was needed to be done by me could be handled immediately. When the sub-contractor (not verified subs but they kept taking phone calls for what sounded like non-Siding Repair Systems jobs) on my time. They did not arrive and I called a bit frustrated that no one showed and Cory the and acirc;??Bossand acirc;?? said the current job they were on they ran into a mold problem. I told them that they could come out the next day then and was told they would be there. I believe I should have at least received a phone call explaining they could not make it and to ask for a re-schedule. That did not happen on day 2 or day 3. I was asked if they could pay the installer double time and if I could be there on Sunday. I was OK with that and they did not show at the arranged time of 9-10 oand acirc;??clock. So I called Cory yet again (about 5 times now making this same call) and he did not have much to say but he would call them. Finally they showed for the first time walked around the house a bit and left saying they were to get the materials that should have been on their truck before they showed up 3 hours late. When they got back and started removing the old siding they left the house open to the elements and it rained heavily that night. Next day (Monday) they did not show ti Mid-afternoon again and that was the way the whole thing was. They did a couple hours and left. However my wife works a big box hardware store and she Note that the siding they were putting up did not look like the James Hardie siding we were paying for. I challenged them on that and when they looked they realized that they made a mistake. Now I thought to myself if it would not have been for the observation of my wife they would have completely sided the house with the wrong material and charged us for the Hardie siding and if we were normal consumers we would have never known. Makes one wonder if that is a new and acirc;??bait and switch and acirc;?? tactic? Then they had to go get the Hardie Siding and the boss Cory calls now that they were caught with the wrong stuff 50% on the walls and asks if I would be willing to take the lesser siding at a lesser price. I said no as I and acirc;??trusted themand acirc;?? to do the right thing. Finally after 3 more days of being late and 3 strong rain storms the job was done. It does look good BTW canand acirc;??t fault that I guess. To end the story I have to make 2 more calls for them to get the trash completely removed and that was only after I threaten them by having American Express withhold payment. I would not recommend this outfit to anyone. I lost 24 hours of vacation due to them not showing up as promised, the trash left around my house, and the and acirc;??presumedand acirc;?? mistake of the wrong siding. I read all the previous reviews on Angieand acirc;??s List and based on my experience I tend to believe they are forgeries. BEWARE is my only warning!!!!!"

"We love our cabinets! They look fantastic while remaining affordable. The friendly staff at AWD helped us from start to finish. They are very knowledgeable and gave us advice and tips when needed. They were receptive and patient with our ever-changing needs. Once we finalized our purchase, we received our cabinets within two weeks! The cabinets are very sturdy and the color is beautiful. The hinges and hardware are high quality. We are extremely pleased with AWD and would recommend them to any friends or family looking for good cabinets at a fair price."

"Amanda and Homemade design are a fantastic option if you are looking to hire an interior designer for help with a specific room, but have a tight budget. You do have to be willing to work with her online and via telephone, which was no problem for me. Amanda recommended the furniture company for my custom couches, and they are fantastic. I can't to get the custom pillows soon. Only downside is that depending on what you purchase, there is a wait time for items to get to your home, but that is the case with anything that is custom made. I would definitely continue to use them in the future.

"They could make sure that their contractors are more responsive. Sometimes, I have called and left a message with their contractor and they never got back to me. I have to call again and get someone else. Their price is kind of in there with other people. When they say they would come, they show up."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

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.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

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.
