We recently purchased a 2nd home on Lake James with an exterior that is 100% cedar.  The exterior was in serious need of cleaning and re-staining.  It had not been maintained; and, had a significant amount of mold staining and several areas of the trim had the original finish peeling off.

We contracted with Mike and Crystal to prep and re-stain the exterior of our home.  Throughout the process, Mike demonstrated thoroughness, competency and responsibility.  Mike and Crystal took personal responsibility to ensure they delivered a quality product.  Mike kept his commitments and did not compromise his work product even when faced with the stripping process taking more time than he expected.  He completed the project per the schedule he committed.

Mike demonstrated a high attention to detail in the finishing process and ensured the project was completed to my satisfaction.  The home looks beautiful...we could not be happier.

I solicited bids from several paint contractors and evaluated several before selecting Mike.  His pricing was very competitive versus several other contractors; but, I never observed where Mike cut corners.

I would definitely recommend MIke's Painting and will plan to use Mike again when we have painting needs.

"We unfortunately experienced a number of problems and communications issues throughout the process with Granite Transformations, and as a result the job experienced several delays.  It seemed like a situation where if something could go wrong, it did in more cases than not.   However in the end, it means a lot that the owners of GT recognized the issues, stood behind their business, and worked hard to earn our satisfaction. GT requests payments at time of signing the contract, and then at points during the process (e.g. cabinets installed, templates drawn, etc).  All who we spoke with at GT on the phone and those who performed work in our home were professional. The end result is a quality product, but the journey to get there was not expected.
Here is a chronology of events:
- Fri August 16th: a GT salesman came to our home with vanity cabinet and surface samples, outlined how the process worked, and we signed a contract to replace Master Bath Vanity Cabinet and Double-sink Top, and reface Half Bath Vanity Cabinet front as well as replace its Single-sink Top. Three new faucets were also included. GT to handle all plumbing hookups.  GT gave us access to an electrical contractor. The saleman explained that work would not begin until all materials were ready to go. At that point GT would install the new Master Bath cabinet, reface the Half Bath cabinet front, and do a template for both tops.  2-3 days after that, the tops and sinks would be installed, then the faucets hooked up.
- Fri October 4th: GT had called end of Sept to let us know all materials were in.  Upon the installers arriving at our house, GT let us know there was a mixup and the Master Bath cabinet had not yet come in.  So GT refaced the Half Bath cabinet.  However upon completion it was resurfaced in a White color rather than the Cherry color we had selected.
- Mon October 21st: GT removed the existing Master Bath cabinet, capped the plumbing, and installed the new cabinet. The Half-bath cabinet was refaced with the correct Cherry color.  Templates were drawn up to make the tops.
- Fri October 25th: GT was to install the Vanity Tops in both baths, however called the evening of Thurs Oct 24th to inform us that workers had dropped and broke the Master Bath top so it would need to be remade.  The composite used for the top was out of stock locally, so would have to be ordered.  With the Master Bath vanity out of commission since the plumbing was capped, we decided to leave the half-bath as is and have GT install the top in the half-bath when the Master Bath top was ready.
- Mon October 28th: The Electrical contractor completed the electrical work scheduled for the Master Bath.  His work was excellent, and price was very reasonable.
- Fri November 8th:  GT installed the Master Bath Vanity Top, Sinks, and Faucets.  This was about Three Weeks after GT had installed the new cabinet there and capped the plumbing.  GT installed the Half Bath Vanity Top, Sink, and Faucet. GT requested full remaining payment at this point, however since both of us were not available to inspect the work, we asked to pay the next day at their store which GT said was acceptable.
- Sat November 9th:  Upon waking up, we were greeted with water on the Master Bath floor, leaking from one of the sinks. Also, upon comparing both Master and Half Bath vanity tops to the samples we had in our possession, we discovered neither top matched its respective sample.  We had travel plans for the weekend, however due to the leak one of us stayed home. we called the plumber (Mr Water Heater, who we found out is owned by the local GT company) and learned they only work Mon-Fri 8-5ish and do not have emergency service.  Upon calling the GT store after it opened, I was told I may need to wait until Monday to have the plumbing issue looked at.  Given the various issues experienced, and the new leak, I asked to have the GT owner call me to discuss the issues.  Jonathan Lamb, GT co-owner called me, and as a result agreed to have a plumber resolve the leak over the weekend (which was done), and then work with us the following week on the other issues.
- Fri November 15th:  Mel Lamb, GT co-owner, came out to our house to inspect the sink top matches to the samples, and the overall experience we had.  He agreed they did not match what we were shown when we signed the contract. We decided to leave the Master Bath alone at this point since the colors worked fine, but Mel offered to replace the Vanity top in the Half Bath at no cost to us, and we accepted as the combination in there did not look right.  We also discussed the other issues.  Mel was not aware of the leak in the Master Bath the previous Saturday, but reassured us that he was aware things on this project did not go right, and that he was there to make things right. Mel made a trip back to the store to get new samples, and we selected from those for the new half bath top. He also offered a final discount on our remaining payment.
- Mon November 25th: Half bath top and sink were reinstalled, and faucet hooked up.  Final payment made in full.
So in summary, the jobs were completed about 15 weeks after the contract was signed, and about 7 weeks after work was started. During the course of our work, we dealt with about a dozen different people including office staff, installers, plumbers, salesman, co-owners, etc. and generally had to bridge communications among them... in our view it would have helped had a single project focal point been assigned.  We were surprised that after signing the contract with our salesman, that we never heard from him again during the project or as part of completing the project.  We also experienced that on several occasions work was not completed correctly on the first attempt which led to reschedules, delays, canceled plans, adhock needs, etc which was inefficient to both GT and the customer.  The local GT seems to be growing, and perhaps these are growing pains as a result of expanding their business.  Hopefully our experience will help bring some changes to the GT process and communications that will help other customers, and help us, should we do business again with GT further down the road.

"Last year I had a tankless gas water heater installed and the vent through the roof had developed a leak.  The $49 advertized price was said to include sealing of roof vents yet when the contractor came out he quoted an additional $100 price to reseal one vent.  I questioned him on what was included in the advertized price and he claimed this sealing was not.  I reluctantly agreed based on the fact that it would cost at least $100 to have another contractor come out and do the job. 

UPDATE: At the Contractor's request and to make sure I had said nothing wrong I re-reviewed the coupon.  It says

Here's the Deal:
    - $49 for inspection of your roof by a roofing specialist and a $100 repair credit
    - Minor roof repairs that can cause water infiltration
    - Caulking exposed nail heads on flashing
    - Maintenance of RESEALING AROUND ANY UNSEALED PIPE COLLARS, EXHAUST FANS/VENTS AND CHIMNEY FLASHING - UP TO FOUR PENETRATIONS
    - Photos taken of any additional areas in need of maintenance and a plan of action presented

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

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.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.
