"Junior Lopez and his team at JR Carpentry did a great job building a ramp for our new shed, repairing our fence and creating a landscaping border. They showed up early, worked hard and paid close attention to every detail. I will definitely hire them again. If you’re looking for a reliable, hardworking handyman, Junior is your guy!"

"Phil, Pat, and Trevor worked at our home repairing siding, trim, and framing for 7 weeks. Phil is nothing less than the Sherlock Holmes of home repair. He Is able to see things most others wouldn't and repair everything until it looks brand new. He is highly intelligent, passionate, and meticulous in his work. Phil sent us pictures and video of problem spots and explained everything to us as he went. His work ethic is impeccable and we were so happy with everything that was done. His team was amazing. Pat was an incredibly hard worker and so respectful of us and our property. Pat did an amazing job. Trevor worked along with them and we were very impressed with how hard he worked. He also did an amazing job. Clearly both Pat and Trevor make a great additions to Phil's team. There were many mistakes that the original builder made and although seemingly small they caused a huge amount of damage over the years. When Phil left we told him it was as good as new, though actually it is better than new. We were so happy to have them at our home and when all was said and done, they left our home much, much better than they found it. It was a pleasure doing business with them and we would highly recommend them to anyone that needs their services."

"I’m very pleased with the way the paint job came out, and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire them again. The only thing I can suggest for improvement is related to communication. I did not get a response from a text I sent with a question, and I was unable to reach them by phone."
Painting - Exterior Project
All the cabinet doors are brought to our shop to be completely refinished in an environment where the paint can properly cure.
This 1940s home looks brand new, after a complete refinishing of the siding and trim, a flat finish for the siding, satin finish for the trim, and newly constructed trellises integrated into the corner boards.

"We hired 603 Construction during Covid to build an addition on our home, and the result completely transformed how we live in the space, especially our kitchen, which has become the heart of our home and an incredible gathering place for family and friends. Like any major project (especially during Covid), there were challenges along the way, but Mike and team handled them and delivered a final product that has created lasting memories for my family and friends. Great group of guys that work hard to deliver! Highly recommend!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.
