"WOW!! I am still in AMAZEMENT at how BEAUTIFUL our kitchen makeover turned out. Aleks and his team (Mike and Justin) are the nicest and most honest contractors I've ever dealt with. From the very beginning to the very end, the work and communication was superb. Aleks guided me through the entire process of picking the best appliances, cabinets, countertops, backsplash, and materials needed to make this all come true within my budget. Aleks stayed in constant communication with the logistics of the project and made us feel very comfortable. Such an amazing team of workers - I could go on for days!! Thank You Aleks and AMV - Our Kitchen is now the Heart of Our Home. The Dupree's"
"Wilson pretty much built the deck and erected the Gazebo as if it were his own. He listened to my concerns and answered all my questions. Wilson is probably the hardest working contractor I have ever seen. If I have another project, I will not hesitate to contact Wilson and his crew."
"I am completely satisfied with the work ! The contractor gave a fair estimate,showed up on time,did a thorough job! I would recommend this contractor."
"????? - BEST CONTRACTOR I am a big investor and own multiple properties in the Bronx, and I hired godinez for a full gut renovation of a 3-family house on Concord Ave.He is hands down one of the best contractors I have ever worked with. Amazing, reliable, experienced, and truly knows what he's doing. When we hit unexpected issues - which always happens in a full gut - he didn't get stuck, he found smart solutions on the spot.He has the right team, the right guys, they work FAST but the quality is still top. Communication was excellent the whole time, and his pricing is very fair and honest.If you want a contractor who gets the job done right, on time, with no headaches - this is your guy. Highly, highly recommended."

"As you know, it is almost impossible to find a reliable and ethical contractor. Cory was fantastic in returning phone calls, showing up on time and his finish work was impeccable. You would be very wise to retain Corys services."
"Here's a polished review you can post on Angi: I highly recommend Rafael for any house work, construction etc. He installed a French drain at my property, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Rafael was honest, reliable, professional, and trustworthy throughout the entire process. He explained everything clearly, showed up when promised, and completed the job with great attention to detail. It's hard to find contractors who are both skilled and dependable, and Rafael exceeded my expectations. I would not hesitate to hire him again and would gladly recommend him to family and friends."

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.
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.
Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity.
Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
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.
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.
