"I learned of JD Construction & Remodeling LLC from Angie’s List, and my experience with them was a very positive one. The work performed entailed replacing deteriorating decorative wood above two windows and two overhead garage doors with vinyl maintenance free decorative material on my home. The resulting work was of good quality and looked identical to how the house appeared when it was built over 30 years ago. I found the work crew to be knowledgeable, conscientious, reliable, professional and easy to communicate with. I would certainly recommend their services."

"These guys did an amazing job on my drywall project. We needed old paneling covered in several rooms. We agreed that all of the sanding and touch-up (and of course painting) would be left up to us. It turned out all we had to do was paint because there was hardly anything to sand or touch up - the install and finishing was done that well!! I have never seen such professionally installed drywall in my life. I would absolutely recommend these guys if you want quality work done at a reasonable price."

"MidCity Handyman and Remodeling installed tile flooring throughout our basement, and it is completely transformed the space! Their attention to detail with each tile placement was impressive. They worked quickly but did not sacrifice quality, making sure everything was level and beautifully aligned. We were so thrilled with the final look, and the durability is perfect for a high-traffic area like our basement. Highly recommend them for any tile work!"

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

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.
