"The job went extremely well. Ani & crew fit us in over a weekend so floor could be put in before it was too cold. Very professional, hard working, agreeable crew. Left the basement spotless. The new floor looks great."

"Farzad was recommended by a good friend when we purchased our house last August. Right away we knew we had found the right person to help us with the many projects we had ahead of us - both big and small. Since then he has become an important and very positive part of our life. Farzad is very talented. He prides himself on doing good work, he makes good suggestions and he listens to what you want. In January we decided to do a kitchen remodel. Farzad suggested certain cabinets and he came up with a design that totally utilized the space we were working with. Once he began work in March the project progressed quickly. I’ve attached before and after pictures of the remodel. We love it! I cannot say enough on how lucky we feel to have Farzad in our life. His talent, reliability and attention to detail make him the perfect choice for whatever job you need. On top of that his rates are fair and reasonable. I highly recommend Farzad for any project you need completed. He’s the best!"

"Devin is a very pleasant and polite guy who does quality work. He helped us salvage a poorly built front porch (another contractors work) and after he put his finishing touches on it for us, it is now looking much better. He took it to the next level with some custom built pieces and even added some built-in lighting. Would highly recommend him for any project. If he doesnâ  t know how to do something himself he will admit it and do what he can to get in touch with someone who can help you."

"Steve is very knowable of every aspect of the construction process (design, excavation, foundations & framing). When a crew is needed Steve is the conductor and the crew is very skilled at providing quality performance. When the going gets tough he keeps going by accepting the challenge and works it through to the end. Only complaint, coordinating his work schedule with me. I do not always know when I will see him again. However, if I call he always answers. I plan on using him again on my next project."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

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.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

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.
