"Excellent - could not have been better. Ralph Rohn was responsive to all our requests, is easy to work with and didn't mind all the crazy questions we asked. He is punctual and takes care of every detail in a timely manner. We got several estimates from contractors. Ralph gave us a good price and we felt we wouldn't be surprised by extra charges at the end. We give him our highest recommendation without reservation."

Customers say: Super punctual

"Wow. Norm is one of the most responsive contractors I have ever dealt with. He called back promptly; he talked through issues very clearly; his workers communicated well; someone was always available. Very responsive and very professional. Because I am busy and work out of town, I place a great value on getting my calls returned and on having all details settled quickly. Norm gets an A++++++ on all of these scores. Really impressive. And of course I liked the work he did."

"Geo and his team recently performed exterior repair work on my home to fix rotting wood along corners and gables. The work was extensive and very detailed. The work was thorough and of the highest quality. We were extremely happy and satisfied with the repairs Geo and his crew performed. The work wasn’t easy, the front of the house sits on a tall sloping hill where ladders need to go. His team handled this wonderfully and kept the landscaping intact. From the initial estimate until the final walk-through Geo was courteous and professional and gave meaningful suggestions about which materials to use and where the issues were. It felt more like a close collaboration than just some “contractors”. It was greatly appreciated. We will definitely be using Geo again for future projects."

"This remodel is the best remodel I’ve ever had done. The contractors were on time, they kept me informed about everything or changes, and they cleaned up immaculately when they left. I will definitely hire them for my next remodel."

"I originally hired Danzy to rebuild brickwork on my front entrance. I ultimately used him for multiple indoor and outdoor projects, INCLUDING overseeing other contractors who just were not as thorough or professional as he was. This guy can do anything!! My house is over 100 yrs old, and he has plenty of experience with older homes. Hire him first as your Project Manager, and he will get the work done!"

"The staff at Odyssey Contractors made the whole process so easy. They made sure I understood everything that would be replaced and they worked directly with my insurance company to ensure that I would not pay more than my deductible. Sean and Jeremy stayed on top of things the whole time right through the final quality check. I canâ t say enough great things for their outstanding customer service and quality work. I love how my new roof looks and would highly recommend them."

"Our experience with Mr Handyman was excellent. The cost was clearly described and the estimate/scheduling/billing were handled very professionally. Matt who gave the estimate and did the work was exceptional. Matt was always on time, worked very hard, was very meticulous and courteous. Matt was also very concerned that all the work was done to our satisfaction. We will definitely be using Mr Handyman again."

"These guys are top notch! So many positive things to say. We have hired Leon for multiple renovation projects in our 1960's midcentury modern home. We hired him after having a negative experience with another contractor who we had to fire in the middle of a remodeling project. We have said many times we wish we found Leon sooner. Chris Leon the owner is very responsive and gives reasonable prices for top quality work. These guys do it all- painting, flooring, electrical, plumbing, drywall and details, details, details. Chris is very trustworthy and even suggested ways for us to save money, instead of just encouraging us to spend as much as possible like many other contractors do. Even after being paid for all the work he came out to our house to make slight modifications at our request. His contractors are all very polite and hard-working. We felt very comfortable having the team around in our house with our family. People who see our house want to know where we had such great work done!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

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.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.
