"I will start off by saying I think I might be the only person in history to say that the renovation went perfectly and I was happy with everything. Let me explain. Wanted a full kitchen and bathroom renovation. We met with Efren (the owner of Nunez Construction) and he had an energy that made us realize that he was experienced and also was open to some new and interesting ideas. He promised the project would be done in 5 weeks - it ended up being 5 weeks and 3 days - essentially on time. The work was flawless and beautiful. He added little flourishes like saddles made of quartz and shelves in an area where a cabinet would not fit. Additionally the measurements from the get go were perfect - the cabinets were the right ones from the beginning and everything fit perfectly in the space on the first try. There were a handful of additional costs - custom shower door, glass cabinets for a bar we built and the appliances (not included in the contract price). All in, Efren stuck to his price, time frame and promise of quality work. Everything from the craftsmanship to the painting were impeccable. What I also appreciated about him was that we stayed in communication with each other from the start. If there was an idea that we presented to him that wouldn’t work in the space, he would let us know and suggest a viable alternative. Great collaboration. Will definitely work with him and his crew again. Already recommended to friends and neighbors."

"Mack Rubio and his team are awesome. My front porch was beginning to sag on one corner and it was causing my vinyl siding to bow out. My home also needed to be pressure washed. Mack is very knowledgeable and he got his level out and showed me that the left side of my porch was two inches lower than the right side. I knew my left column was rotting but I was not sure about the wooden supports I could not see beneath the decking boards. Mack assessed the situation and advised pouring concrete footers and replacing only the columns and supports that needed to be replaced on the porch. His quote was very reasonable and I didn't hesitate to give Handymack Services the work. Mack and his team were on time, got right to work, and I was truly amazed at all that got accomplished while I was at work. When I got home, Mack took the time to explain what remained to be done and his schedule for finishing the project. Mack's work is quality and he stated more than once that he wanted to make sure I was happy. Honestly, I am way beyond happy because I have never contracted with anyone who has been as thorough, nor who worked as quickly as Mack. My porch looks great, my siding is no longer bowed out, and the pressure washing made my twelve year old siding look new. I was so impressed I immediately hired him to repair a door frame, stain my back deck, and replace warped deck boards. I will definitely be giving Handymack Services my business in the future because they value me as a customer and I value their honesty, promptness, and attention to detail."

"I spoke with Boris to explain the problem I was having with my exterior front doors. We were having a lot of problems opening and closing the door. The frame was offline and the door dragging on the ground. The doors were in good condition but the frame was causing a head ache. I thought I would have to replace the whole unit (doors and frame). Golden Touch Remodelers fixed the frame and adjusted the doors. We were relieved. The worker were curious and easy to work with. They made sure that we were satisfied with the work. I would use them again."

"This is a follow-up to a review submitted October 19, 2018 the of excellent work of Rahat owner Kazi Ismail and his crew performed on rebuilding our back steps, and other work in the back of our of property. We were so impressed we immediately contracted him to tackle a far greater challenge: our crumbling front patio and stairs, retaining walls, fencing, and front entrance. The before and after pictures shown here tell the story better and any words we can add. As we mentioned before, Kazi’s principal aim is to make your home the most envied on the block. Not the gaudiest or flashiest, but the most balanced, functional and tastefully balanced. His suggestions for all the materials - brick, iron, and granite - makes for a truly pleasing, harmonious overall impression. After succeeding beyond our highest expectations at this task, we decided to go the distance for a total exterior renovation and contracted Kazi this year to replace our siding and window framing. (When his started removing the old siding, we were amazed to find out there was no installation over the original wood of our 120-year-old house! Our heating bills will be much lower this Winter). We would strongly advise homeowners to give great weight to Kazi’s design suggestions. It is often hard to select the options for materials he presents you with because they all would work. For the cornice and the front door overhang, Kazi found just right pieces that give the house that historical look that prior owners covered up or removed. As mentioned before, Kazi’s crew is excellent, hard working in any weather, prompt and overall pleasant to have around. Most important, we have never felt his estimates were inflated beyond expectation and was never surprised by overruns or other ‘surprises’. He will re-do any work that he isn’t totally satisfied with. Finally, as a testament to our good judgment and trust in Rahat, when all the work was finished, we’ve have had dozens of people (neighbors and strangers) walk by the house, stop and tell us how beautiful it looks!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

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.

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.
