"I found consistently positive reviews and high ratings for Wilber's Painting. So, when I hired this company I had very very high expectations. They not only met those expectations, but they far exceeded them. Everyone from Danny (estimator/manger), to Melvin (project/team manager), to the hard working painting crew (consisting of Yimi, Donaldo and Victor) was courteous, professional and conscientious. The painting crew worked tirelessly (even through uncomfortably high temperatures). They meticulously, respectfully and quietly, prepped and painted the house and garage. They performed the highest quality and cleanest prepping, cutting and painting that I have witnessed. They protected the siding, windows, roofing, gutters and surrounding property, surfaces, plants and AC equipment. They thoroughly cleaned up at the end of each day and at the end of the project. AND... Wilber's Painting quoted, and honored one of the most competitively priced estimates (with no additional cost overruns). I will definitely hire these hardworking professionals in the future. I rarely write reviews like this. However, I rarely find a contractor as good as Wilber's Painting!"

"We hired Built-Well to install new doors in our house. This involved work in nearly every room in the house, but Grant and his team moved quickly, working around our schedule, and kept everything spotless as they worked. We are so happy with the finished project and will absolutely hire Built-Well for future projects. We have worked with several contractors in the past, but none have come close to the professionalism and quality of their work! We can not recommend them enough!!"

"My parents and I live in a old brick apartment building in Hoboken that is from the 1880s. The bathroom in our apartment had not been updated since the 1940s. We needed help ASAP. We checked out Cesar s page and wanted to hire him immediately. The reviews speak for themselves. When he came into our apartment to give us a quote we knew that this was contractor we needed to get the job done. Cesar is affordable, friendly, and very accommodating to any issues or concerns you have before starting the project. Two massive issues with our project were that my dad has spinal & walking issues, so we needed the floors clear of all tools and materials at the end of the each day so that father could walk efficiently through the apartment. The other big issue was that we only have 1 bathroom, so Cesar agreed to work with us on pulling the toilet off and on as every day finished so that we did not have to leave our building to use the toilet. Him and his crew are the best and take pride in their work so that owner is happy with the final result. We brought the bathroom down to the bare bones and rebuilt it back up. I worked with him every step of the way to make sure that he needed all materials to get the job done in the time we needed. This project was an intense remodel with some of the hardest demo and substrate materials that an old bathroom can have. He didn t think anything of it. He has veteran experience in the field and this remodel only took 3 weeks. We are very impressed with Cesar s craftsmanship and professionalism and we will be hiring him again for any future interior projects."

"We hired Ernest and Sons to construct our patio tiles. We purchased 2' X 2' Tiles and I have to say they did a gorgeous job. I was so pleased with the way they showed up when they said they would. The men that laid out on my job worked so hard. The labor was very strenuous but they never took a break. They were the most conscientious and polite workers I've ever dealt with. They worked neatly, cleaned up totally afterward, and just had a great deal of respect for our property. They really did a beautiful job and Ernest, the owner is a real gentleman also. Love this company!"

"The bench mark for any contractor is to ask the customer if they had another project would they use the same contractor again. My answer in regard to DDP Construction would be, in a word, "ABSOLUTELY". The finish work was impeccable. Darek is very personable, knowledgeable, reliable and also got good deals on appliances and counter tops, but most importantly, he is accessible. He did a complete renovation on my kitchen. He was on the job every day, not all day long, but available if I had questions. Are there hidden problems and surprise costs when they open your walls, ceiling and floor? Of course there are, but they were handled professionally the very next day. Is your wife going to be completely satisfied? Of course she's not, but she was happy with the finish results. She wanted a flush mounted stove and refrigerator, didn't happen in a 10' by 10' room, but that's wasn't Darek's fault. She thinks the cabinets could have been a little wider and deeper but we both like the soft close doors and drawers, and the construction is excellent. Over the past few years I've had occasion to use about 4 or 5 different contractors for different projects such as roofing, siding, walkways and entry doors. Would I use any of them again? In four words, "not even at gunpoint". Generally you see the general contractor once or twice to sign the contract and to pick up the money and that's it. Like I said, Darek worked with us thru every step of the project and personally saw to any modifications we requested. I would highly recommend DDP Construction and will most likely use them again when I re-do my deck, when I find that bucket of money."

"They are close-by and they do a lot of construction work around here. They did really well. They are local. The job done by them was absolutely perfect. They handled the whole thing including handling the historic sections in Jersey City. They had to actually go to the historic department to get anything done. They also handled the permit. I spent about $12000, which is about $2000 more than the least quoted, but I liked them. The least quoted was $10000. I have a four-story brownstone and they created a cornice on the top based on photos from a long, long time ago. It was a pretty big project. They are friendly and fast. They do quality work. They are 10% more expensive than the others, but you really get good work. Their responsiveness was good. They did a really good job on the roof too. We would definitely use their services in the future too."

"Gene and his son and crew are the consummate professionals! We had the best experience from start to finish. Gene is the most communicative contractor I’ve ever worked with. He was always responsive and clear with his schedule so we knew exactly when his crew would be working on the construction. Gene has a very approachable friendly personality and his team were great to have around the house. They were very clean and made sure they were as unobtrusive as possible. We had a full basement renovation and a deck with screened in porch. The finished result is incredible! Gene also knows the towns well so he has good relationships with the permit people. Gene follows code so you know what you are getting is not just beautiful but safe. He doesn’t cut corners. He also works with professional experienced third party contractors so you can rest assured the work is done right from top to bottom. We are very happy with the end result and will enjoy our house for many years to come! I highly recommend Gene and Your Way Contractors. They are worth the premium they charge. I almost wish we had more projects we need done…."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

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.

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.
