"They did an amazing job. We have the most beautiful kitchen, family room and dining room. They were very conscientious about doing the job right. We had some serious structural issues from the last contractors but they corrected all the issues and we are very pleased with the outcome. They were always on time, very honest about everything we were dealing with and concerned that everything was done to our liking. From our experience this is a company of high standards and integrity."

"Everything is going great! I met with John, Stephen & Sabrina multiple times and their vision and understanding is always aligned with mine. They really make you their #1 priority which to me is really important. Ive hired other contractors that were extremely unprofessional and put other projects between and ahead of mine even though Id been under contract prior to them. I feel confident with Atlas James and excited to finally have found real professionals to get our projects done!"

"I contacted Jimmy for a roof estimate before closing on the house.
Jimmy sent me back the estimate in a timely manner which helped me get the proper credit.
After closing, I interviewed a few other contractors and decided to go with Jimmy because I felt comfortable 
with the way he communicated his recommendations and his promptness.
As with any job, there were a few things that came up during the renovation but I must say, the level of communication was 
everything I could ask for.  
I was especially glad I picked Jimmy because I reside in NYC (3 hours away) and couldn't be present all the time.  Needless to say,  good communication was very important.
Jimmy finished the job within the time frame promised.   I asked him to do a couple of other things after completion 
and he finished those in time for my new tenants move date.
Though I didn't gave Jimmy a specific budget.  He did meet my expectations with regard to the budget I set for myself.
Overall, I am very happy with the results and will most definitely contact him first for any future jobs."

"We were so pleased with the work that Dan and his crew did on the drainage around our house and electrical work. His price was fair, he was honest and he spent the extra time needed to "get the job right!". We highly recommend Dan and look forward to hiring him again for future projects. Dan's price never changed, even though the workload did! Dan and his team have a very busy schedule and it may take time to get the work done, but it is totally worth the wait and you really need to consider the quality of a contractor that may be available immediately! Call Dan and have him to your work!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

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.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.
