"We started out with a budget just for the kitchen to repaint the kitchen cabinets, replace the flooring with porcelain tiles, redo the peninsula, use quartz for the counter tops, add recess lighting, and center the lighting fan. Into the job, based on Harvey's excellent advice, we decided to get new kitchen cabinets, have Harvey and his team build storage cabinets above the new cabinets instead of having a soffit built in that open space. We also had a pantry rebuilt by Harvey and his team as well. Lastly we had the peninsula changed to an island with cabinets added underneath as well. Also, we decided to redo the small (powder) bathroom on the main floor. Harvey and his team were awesome. He was very patient in allowing us to make changes to the original plans that turned out quite outstanding. His team always showed up early for work. The quality of the work was simply outstanding. Instead of half doing things like what we got with the Home Depot contractors in years prior, Harvey and his team took things back to the studs and made sure the things were built the right way. I now feel very confident about what is behind the walls and how the work was done. I will attached pictures of the kitchen and bathroom by next week. We are still putting things back into the new cabinets now and etc. We are extremely happy with the work Harvey and his team did. We intend to use them for a few other projects in the future. If you're really thinking about having work done on your home, I would highly recommend that you speak with Harvey to have his team come to do an amazing job for you as well. He will work with you on to provide competitive pricing. In the end it's all about quality work that you can feel great about. We feel great!!!!!!! :)"

"Jose and his team were extremely professional, highly knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire project. He provided a fair price without compromising on quality, and his attention to detail was amazing. The final result came out even better than I expected! One of the things I appreciated most was how clean and organized they were. They always kept the work area neat, taking extra care to minimize dust and prevent it from spreading to other parts of the house. I would absolutely hire him again and highly recommend Jose to anyone looking for a skilled, reliable, and detail-oriented contractor. A true professional!"

"Ray didn’t just put in a whole new kitchen, including a pantry. He also ( I hope I remember everything) remodelled two bathrooms, put in a new front door, built steps into my garage, brought my washer & dryer up from the basement & installed it in my garage, helped us put together our gazebo. My favorite thing he built is our gorgeous large deck. We joke about it, it’s so well built that we’re holding onto it in a hurricane. Ray is so easy to work with, very caring & creative with suggestions. He has the nicest & very capable workers. We still stay in contact on a friendly bases, can’t say that about all contractors."

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Keith Coco and his team! From the very beginning, they listened to my ideas, understood my vision, and then brought it to life in a way that completely exceeded my expectations. They built our gazebo and pool deck, and the craftsmanship, attention to detail, and quality of their work are absolutely incredible. What I had pictured in my mind became even more beautiful than I imagined! Keith and his team were professional, knowledgeable, hardworking, and truly took pride in every detail of the project. It’s not always easy to find a company that delivers exactly what they promise — and then goes beyond it — but they absolutely did. We couldn’t be happier with the finished result. Our backyard has been completely transformed into a space we are going to enjoy with family and friends for years to come. Thank you, Keith Coco and team, for taking my vision and turning it into something even better than I dreamed! I would recommend them without"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.
