"Fratto Home Improvement and Repair has been our go-to general contractor for several years. Mr. Fratto's work ethic, professionalism, skill level, and punctuality can only be matched by his warm and friendly personality, and a natural talent for customer service, which make him a pleasure to work with. We live in a pre-war building the NYC metropolitan area, and our bathroom renovation involved complete gutting, as well as dealing with many quirky elements often found in older buildings. Mr. Fratto guided us through the entire project from the initial fixture and material choices to the final decorative touches. He stayed within the planned budget and made sure that we were comfortable and informed every step of the way. It is also important to note that the bathroom in question is the only one in our home, yet because of Mr. Fratto's careful planning and methodical approach, we were able to continue using it through the entire project. We feel very comfortable recommending Fratto Home Improvement and repair to anyone interested in a bathroom renovation, kitchen renovation, or any other home improvement project."

"Dave and his crew did an excellent job on my new kitchen! He was very patient with the various co-op restrictions in my building, and all of their attention to detail throughout the job was very impressive. They left the building site cleaned every day and made sure to set things up so I could comfortably live here during the work. As others have said, Dave is a great communicator - I received frequent updates and quick responses via text/email/phone to any questions I had. This was my first renovation as a homeowner, which I was nervous about, and I'm so glad I went with Dave and his crew. I would not hesitate to hire him again and to recommend him to others!"

"We had a wonderful experience with Fabian who replaced our shower and sink in the bathroom (as well as building BEAUTIFUL shelves) and he replaced our screen door. He was very flexible and accommodating to our needs. He made sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. No more worrying about finding a great contractor - we've found him!"

"If you're looking to remodel, hire Bud at Above & Beyond Contracting! Him and his crew were reliable, trustworthy, friendly and easy to work with. His quote was by far the most detailed & fair I received. If there was an issue, he put your mind at ease and took care of it. He recommended details I didn't even think of and it elevated the remodel & I love it. I am so happy with my renovation and couldn't be happier that I went with Above & Beyond Contracting."

Customers say: Quick response

"First I was planning to power-wash and stain the deck, but Orlando talked me into power-wash the whole house and paint as well. The price was reasonable. Even though the work was postponed due to the rain, Orlando called and emailed constantly to give me their schedule. They exchanged the top part of the deck and repaired here and there, and I find their carpentry skills are excellent. I definitely will ask him to do something around the house in the future."

"Our house was sagging and fixing it was a huge complex job that required digging out a lot of dirt, lifting the house, re-routing plumbing, replacing broken beams and posts, and laying plastic and rocks to contain moisture. Mr. Lojano took on the job and was extremely professional and responsive. He showed that he knows what he's doing--at times even more than the structural engineer we hired! We would definitely hire Gustavo Lojano again."

"We have used the company for two projects and during each of the projects, one was putting up additional framing to split a room and the other was installation of a new kitchen counter. The work was completed in a quick efficient manner and they left the workplace clean. Given that we had very specific requirements of the work, we were please in how they were punctual and were willing to work with us to ensure that items were built correctly. We felt the pricing was fair given the work requested and I would definitely use again for future projects."

"Andy is a professional contractor. He followed up as promised, and his price was affordable. On the day of the installation, he arrived early with his crew they completed the work and cleaned up afterwards. Additionally, my Zelle only allowed a certain amount per day, but Andy was very understanding allowing me to send the funds as my bank allowed. I will definitely recommend this company to do my renovation work. I am looking forward to working with them in the future. Thank you so much Andy for your honesty, respect and understanding. Happy holidays to you and your family."

"I used Hire Her Home Improvement to build a Timber Tech deck and to reroute and upgrade the wiring to my garage. Every worker was professional, extremely competent and great to work with. We couldn't have been more pleased. We'll be hiring them again next year when we do the interior of our garage."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.
