"Nunez’s team did a fantastic job! We are super happy with everything! They are reasonable and the quote I received didn’t change. They also cleaned up when they finished the project (mopping and dusting). We have other projects and will definitely be hiring Nunez. I highly recommend. I highly recommend this contractor."

"LI & A Construction completed two projects for us. The first was last summer. Mr. Hetnarien and his team eliminated a section of the houseâ s back deck. This year LI & A Construction updated a section of a small bathroom in our house. On both projects, Mr. Hetnarien and his crew did an outstanding job. My research for a general contractor led me to LI & A Contraction Corp. My first requirement was that the business have the necessary license and insurance in good standing and Mr. Hetnarien â s business did. On communication and responsiveness, they get high marks. Mr. Hetnarien always got back to me within 48 hours. He is both accessible and approachable. Both jobs were carried out promptly. If they anticipated a delay because of bad weather (and there was), this was made known to me ahead of time. He and his team are knowledgeable, professional, and respectful. I would not hesitate to hire Mr. Hetnarien again."

"Anthony, Allison and Luis were a a refreshing group of people to work with on a contracting job. We had a bathroom repair that went horribly with another contractor, so we needed someone and come in to fix the prior job before things got worse. Luis and Anthony put together a proposal and got right to it. We had to have our new shower floor ripped out, the drain and piping replaced, a new custom shower pan installed, new shut-off valves, repair the shower head, replace wall tiles and remove and replace all of the grout. They showed up every day within their half-hour window and worked a full day. They were very respectful of our home and our space. The work they did to replace the previous shoddy work was spectacular. We no longer have to worry about leaking pipes and damaged fixtures. Luis was on site most days to oversee how things were going. And if he wasn't there in person, he was always available by phone to answer questions. Since we had potential subrogation claims against the previous contractor, we needed to document EVERYTHING as we went along. They were very patient with us and letting us take multiple photos and clearly explaining everything they were doing. Luis was also incredibly knowledgeable and was informing us of potential problems before they happened. We went to get the grout that we were told by the previous contractor to use. With one look and feel THROUGH THE PLASTIC BAG Luis was able to tell us that it was the wrong grout which was what led to many of our problems with the walls. We simply returned it for the unsanded grout which was the industry standard for wall tile. We further had Anthony and his team rip out the drywall in an overhang outside and install lights, an outlet, insulation and then repair damaged drywall from the original plumbing job. Everything was perfect. Very clean and professional job. We would highly recommend Anthony and his team again. They are very professional, knowledgeable and do great work!"

"I hired this company to do a few projects around my condo - dry wall, painting, electrical work, installing hardware and shelving. The team members who worked on the projects were professional, prompt, skilled, and have an attention to detail. The work they did was superior and affordable. I highly recommend this company as they went above and beyond to make my place look great."

"Best contractors we have ever worked with. We will definitely use them for anything we need in the future. Every single day, they showed up, ON TIME like clockwork, and worked hard. I can’t say that for other companies we have worked with. Now I realize how bad the other companies were! Finished on schedule (3-4 weeks). Very friendly crew, easy to work with. Everything was “no problem.” :) Gave my husband and I piece of mind. They know what they’re doing, and even though we kept piling on projects after the initial work was started, they still finished within the original time alotted. Really, really good guys."

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.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off.
