"Angel and his crew have completed 20+ projects for me on my rentals and flips. Best in the business when it comes to any flatwork. He has done my driveways, patios and sidewalks. Easy to work with and competitive pricing!"

"I bought a deal for $49 for a kitchen or bathroom design consultation but had them move forward with the kitchen and bathroom renovation.  They could've followed the schedule, and done a better job overall. We're still waiting for them to redo some work that was insufficient."

"Mike came out a couple of times and he really assessed my yard, including the water pooling problems I was having.  I wanted my patio extended, but because the existing patio was old, crumbling stamped concrete, he made multiple suggestions for how to make it look nice in the end.  He showed me how the end product would look and even agreed to incorporate some stone I had elsewhere in the yard to make it all look like it had always been there. He mapped it out and I was ecstatic about the vision he had. Unfortunately, to rip out my existing patio and truly do it the right way, it came in higher than I was comfortable with at this point in time.  However, I was very impressed with the amount of time Mike took with me and the different options and solutions he thought of to make it exactly what I wanted.  When I do have the budget for the project, I will definitely be calling Mike to come out and do the job. He was wonderful to work with.

"Premiere Painting took on my job that four other painters declined on due to the complexity of the job. I have a large master bedroom, bath and closet with extensive woodwork. Beau paid tremendous attention to detail in preparing the job. Words cannot describe the quality of work that was done! His focus on the minor details was quite impressive! The job turned out better than I expected and I couldn't be happier! If you are looking for a quality painter that is honest, has a strong work ethic, and takes pride in his work then you cannot go wrong with Premiere Painting!"

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.

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.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.
