"Mendez Construction Company did an absolutely phenomenal job building our horizontal fence. It turned out stunning and completely exceeded our expectations. The work was done quickly, on time, and with great attention to detail. Santo was incredibly easy to work with, communicative throughout the entire process, and offered fair, transparent pricing. What truly stood out was their dedication. They worked through tough winter conditions to make sure the project was completed by the deadline, and that level of commitment is rare and greatly appreciated. Santo does so much more than fencing, and after this experience, I plan to use Mendez Construction for all of my future household projects. If you’re looking for quality craftsmanship, reliability, and a team that genuinely cares about their work, I highly recommend Mendez Construction Company."

"Arrived on time, went to the base of the chimney and identified hole on flashing in less than 10 minutes. Spent about 45 minutes making repairs. Opened small hole in second floor drywall next to chimney chase and identified water stain. Will leave open for a few weeks to test repair. Owner called to check on progress before carpenter left. He swept up in the room before leaving. I would not hesitate to use this service again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
