"I reached out to Fabian for an estimate to replace my old stand-up shower, and he got back to me right away. He really listened to what I wanted and worked within my budget. The final result was fantastic—he did a great job replacing the shower and fine-tuning all the detail work. During the project, he discovered moisture and mildew on the floor beneath the shower, he addressed it with me immediately and offered thoughtful options and ideas on how to move forward—without any pressure. I truly appreciated his honesty and professionalism throughout the process. I would highly recommend Fabian for any bathroom renovation or repair. He’s reliable, skilled, and genuinely cares about doing quality work. "

"I interviewed a few people before making my decision using Rok and Iâ m glad I did. I did a complete gut renovation and he basically made my revision come to fruition. Even with the delayed/problems with renovations he always kept me informed. U told me he would always have someone at my house working and that he did. Not like the contractors Iâ ve worked with in the past that say that but then once they get the job.. the â oh someone would be thereâ and no one comes. I had a leak issue and he made it to my house 10 pm to assure it was taken of. Roc is reliable and hard working."

We understand that the future of our business depends upon our reputation and that is why customer service is by far our highest priority. If you are looking for a professional you can trust, please call today to schedule a no-obligation estimate!

"I rarely write reviews, but I had to take a moment to share just how incredible Dino was. He was truly extraordinary from start to finish, and I genuinely felt lucky to have found someone this talented, reliable, and kind. From the moment he arrived, it was clear I was dealing with a true professional. He was punctual, friendly, and came fully prepared with all the tools he might need for the job. What impressed me most wasn’t just his skills (which was top-tier), but his attitude. He was respectful of my space, super easy to communicate with, and genuinely enthusiastic about the work. His attention to detail was impeccable. I had just moved in and had a long list of tasks—mounting TVs, hanging shelves and curtain rods, assembling furniture—and Dino tackled every single one with skill, speed, and a can-do attitude. Nothing phased him. He was incredibly precise when it came to mounting the TVs, especially taking care to position them at the perfect eye level for comfort. He explained what he was doing throughout and offered thoughtful suggestions where it made sense. He really understood what I needed and delivered it perfectly. My home looks and functions so much better now, thanks to Dino’s incredible work. If you're on the fence about hiring a handyman who’s reliable, skilled, and takes pride in delivering top-notch results, look no further. Dino is the real deal. I’ll definitely be calling him again soon—and I’ve already recommended him to my brother and sister-in-law."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can use a nail to find ceiling joists, but it’s not as reliable as a stud finder, and you’ll end up with lots of small holes in your ceiling. If the nail hits a joist, you'll feel increased resistance. Mark the spot with a pencil. Repeat this process regularly along the ceiling, 16 or 24 inches apart, until you've mapped out the joist locations.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

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, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.
