"The job went well, Wilson from Build N Bolt Construction was professional, he brought samples of different crown molding and he explained in detail about the installation of the molding. On day of the job he and his worker arrived on time with all material need. They were neat, clean and they clean up after themselves. I was very please with the work and I would use them again"

"I am happy to recommend ReupholsteryNYC. I dealt with Eli and it was a pleasure. I sent him pictures of my chair and he quoted me a fair price. I supplied my own fabric and arranged with him to have the chair and fabric picked up from my apt. If you need a COI, he will provide that, too. Eli said the chair would be ready for delivery in three weeks and it was! I am very pleased with the work that ReupholsteryNYC did. They were very professional with sending me the invoice. I am now looking for fabric for reupholstering 10 dining room chairs and as soon as I have it I will be sending my chairs to Eli at ReupholsteryNYC to continue their good work. Thank you Eli and staff!"

"Mack Rubio does fantastic woodwork. He and Juri responded within minutes of my request for new porch stairs and railings, as well as replacement of rotted fascia and siding. His work is solid, fast, and precise. Excellent skill and craftsmanship. His estimates are affordable and his team are always punctual and professional. This is my first home purchase and it is a fixer-upper, so I will definitely be calling Mack again for assistance with all of our home improvement projects. I highly recommend Handy Mack for all home repairs and renovations!"

Small jobs welcome

"AMAZING WORK - Skimcoat & Primer throughout my apartment. Hugo himself fixed my apartment. My apartment had old walls FULL of issues, cracks, moisture issues, everything in the book And he himself gave me a great quote for exceptional work. I trusted him with my home and he practically gave me a new home. At the end of the process he gave me time to review any imperfections or anything I dislike and he patiently went over every single thing to give me absolute perfection. I can’t complain. Amazing value for amazing work."

"Duraglass was quick to respond to my request for services, and schedule visit to my home - I had 4 panes of glass in wood frames that were needed to be replaced, and a double glass window that also needed to be replaced. DuraGlass arrived on schedule, determined what was needed for repairs; maintained great housekeeping in the execution of the work. cleaned up after the job, kept me informed on progress and status on arrival, and provided consultation on an additional window that needs repairs. The pricing was competitive, and overall, I was very happy with their efforts and would hire Duraglass again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.
