"I cannot sing the praises of Jose and his team enough. I purchased a new home that had carpeting everywhere and hired J & J Elite Carpentry Inc to replace with wood floors. They did an AMAZING job as you can see from the pictures. J&J even took care of replacing a few closet doors. Jose and his team are very friendly, knowledgable, patient, responsive, on time and professional. They communicate and are transparent with you every step of the way and get the job done with such great detail and care. They also specialize in other areas so I plan to hire them for other home repair needs."

"I was refer to Maurice by a friend who said he is very neat and fairly priced. What a amazing job Maurice did on my entire condo. Maurice is very professional,friendly,detailed orientated,trust worthy. He is excellent at time management and goes further then just meeting expectations. I was so impressed by how reliable and accurate he is. Maurice certainly went above and beyond to make my place look brand new which included extensive prep work and repair of all walls/storage rooms, in addition to painting all the interior doors. I highly recommend Maurice on every level of craftsmanship and service, and I will refer him to anyone who is in need of a painter."

"As it happens, Wilber's Painting has skilled carpenters on staff who are competent, experienced, and committed to old world craftsmanship. Our good fortune was getting Maynor, a highly talented carpenter, who constructed and installed the door, which is quite attractive. The installation was tricky because the 90 year-old frame was not perfectly squared but he managed to get the right fit. Mahogany was used for the door frame and safety glass for the insert. I opted not to have a screen insert, so the glass is a permanent fixture."

"

Rich and Jared (father and son team) of R.A.P. Painting did an amazing job on our much-needed pressure washing of the house in addition to the cleaning/staining of our 2-level deck and the wood frame surrounding the hot tub.

I called Rich and he returned my call the same day.  He came out to the house and gave us a very fair price for all of the services we requested.  He and Jared completed the work in about 2 1/2 days - they were very professional in their application of the stain and clean-up.  They both notified us of any changes to their schedule and returned my calls promptly if we had any questions.

We are very pleased with the results and would highly recommend this company to anyone in need of deck staining, pressure washing or gutter cleaning.  We will definitely use them again.

"Renovo came quickly to look at the project, explained what needed to be done and gave me an estimate of the cost. Then he returned the next day to perform the work. It was a great experience. I would definitely recommend them for any siding/roofing repair."

"I hired this company to replace my roof dumpster was delivered one day before they started the job. Very hard-working guys, they remove all shingles on a 20 square roof within 2h. unfortunately the plywood was bad and need it to be replaced these guys did something that no company would do it they removed all plywood did framing repair installed 5/8 plywood and charged me only for the cost of plywood. I give them 5 stars for the job that they did and i will never deal with any other company besides HomeMaster."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

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.
