"It went very well. The crew was efficient, hard working, skilled and personable. The owners answered my questions, were available by phone, responded promptly and did a nice cleanup job and checked in with me about the work before leaving. I’m pleased with the work and will contact them again if I need any other work done."

"I would recommend Sunnyside Masonary to anyone looking to have any Masonary work done. They know what they are doing and very clean and polite. They are hard workers and aim to please. The work we had done before from a different contractor was a disaster. Thank you Sunnyside Masonary for coming to our rescue. Very reasonable prices too. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"Hector and his crew were wonderful! They did everything from demo to the full remodel. Very communicative and willing to add on smaller projects (new front & side doors and steps)while still completing the interior. Will be using again for future projects."

"I could not recommend Harold's Enterprises more highly. I reached out to Harold based on his listing on Angie's List before I bought my home--free of charge, he took a look at the roof on a property I was considering buying--giving me an estimate and advice. His help led me to find that the sellers were dishonest about the condition of and work done on their roof, and I purchased a different property in Hudson, NY. My home is a 1927 Craftsman that needed quite a bit of work. I hired Harold based on his honesty and responsiveness in helping me evaluate the first property. True to form, his estimate and ultimate cost to repaint the entire interior, repair and sheetrock floors and ceilings, refinish and replace hardwood floors, completely remodel a bathroom, rewire and install light fixtures, match original woodworking, install cabinetry, windows, and appliances, and even assist with installing new furniture, were more than reasonable. Better yet, the quality of his work was of the highest caliber. He has restored and improved a lovely home, and I am so thankful! I have to say that most of all, I am so happy with Harold's professionalism and diligence. Not every contractor is known for staying on the job and completing it on time. Especially in my situation, where I am a single woman trying to restore a second home when I live out of state--I assumed I would have difficulty in getting any contractor to be present and complete the job on time. However, this was never a problem. Harold was always there, was immediately responsive, and never slacked off when I wasn't there. I plan to work with Harold as much as possible in the future as I continue to improve my Hudson home. I recommend him very highly."

"They are very personable. They care very much about how your job will turn out. When I asked for an estimete, they gave about half the price of one from the compitition, which they knew nothing of. I have since hired them again and plan to call them soon for more jobs. They also kept in close contact with me for scheduling and were on the job when agreed. They do a great job!."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

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.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.
