"I need to thank once again, Gary co-owner of Midcity Handyman & Remodeling, https://www.midcityhr.com
My electric needed upgrading as I was having lights dim as my o2 concentrator or ac unit used power. I couldn't run small ac unit in bedroom, living area one together at all, add in the airfryer and something needed turning off, obviously not the o2 unit and the heat was suffocating so air fryer didn't get used, lots of sandwiches. He came out and updated my breaker box with 2, 30 amp breakers and replaced, updated 9 outlets with 20 amp GFI ones. If I wanted to I can now run, both ac units, a dual circulating fan, freezer, airfryer, microwave, lights and TV all at the same time without losing power (throwing a breaker). 😍 thanks Gary you rock. They are very busy and have many repeat customers so call now to get in-line for your next remodel/upgrade or repair."
"JD Construction was great for my bathroom and kitchen update. They did extensive work including replacing the subfloor and rotted joists in the bathroom. They did the floor installation in bathroom and large kitchen, put up new drywall, stained and installed cabinets, and installed water fixtures. Jeff and Derek are responsive, easy to get in touch with, very professional and polite, they are a great, fast-working team that I would hire again for future projects."
"Zach was fantastic to work with. He was professional, communicated well, and did exceptional work completing a drywall project for us. Would highly recommend his services."
"I never contacted the provider or used this service in anyway. I have to write this review so that the request to write this review stops popping up. The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit. "
"Once I sent her all the measurements, it took her a little while to get the options back to me. Overall, they're good designs. However, they're very simplistic and give general ideas for space planning. I was hoping to have a better idea for sizes of furniture for the space and some variations on staging. Jill was very responsive when I did have a question. I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a virtual design done. If we lived in similar cities, I'd probably use her again for help with additional designs. "
Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts
Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.
Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.
Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.
