"WOW!! I am still in AMAZEMENT at how BEAUTIFUL our kitchen makeover turned out. Aleks and his team (Mike and Justin) are the nicest and most honest contractors I've ever dealt with. From the very beginning to the very end, the work and communication was superb. Aleks guided me through the entire process of picking the best appliances, cabinets, countertops, backsplash, and materials needed to make this all come true within my budget. Aleks stayed in constant communication with the logistics of the project and made us feel very comfortable. Such an amazing team of workers - I could go on for days!! Thank You Aleks and AMV - Our Kitchen is now the Heart of Our Home. The Dupree's"

"I was once told by a master stair builder that if you want to evaluate a general contractors work, look in the dumpster at the job site for an excessive amount of used caulk tubes indicating that they are covering up mistakes. Recently we completed a very challenging project that required the excavation under our old seasonal home in conjunction with a significant 2-story addition. After interviewing three reputable and recommended contractors, we decided to work with Dave Nessel, owner of Unique Construction. Dave presented a clear concise estimate of the scope for the work proposed, the costs we should expect and a timeframe for completion; all proved to be very accurate. He and his team of true artisans obviously enjoyed their work. Laughter and music would usually overshadow the sound of the power tools that were working in synchrony. The exceptional fit and finish in a clean and neat environment were easily appreciated. Dave is truly a meticulous visionary. During the project, he was never shy about recommending esthetic modifications which deviated from the architects drawings. Whether these change orders originated from him or us, they were never with exorbitant fees, but were billed for time and materials used. The final result far exceeded our expectations. My wife and I would recommend Dave Nessel and Unique Construction without any reservation. Unique Construction….minimal caulk required"

"We renovated an old house we bought into a nice, modern, livable space. Working with Hershy was a breeze. Trust is not something that comes easy, especially with contractors, and Hershy proved himself time and time again with his honesty and integrity. From the estimate to completion, the price remained the same (and even decreased slightly). Hershy is extremely devoted throughout the entire job and beyond. 6 months after we moved in and fully paid up, Hershy came back for touchups. He's pleasant, always calm, yet fully on the ball and works extremely quickly. He stands behind his work and ensures everything is done to perfection. We recommended many customers and they're all equally satisfied with his excellent service and expertise. We will continue to recommend Hershy too all who're looking for professionalism combined with exceptional customer service. Thank you Hershy!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them.
