"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."
"Had to tear apart the door jam in order to get my washer and dryer into my bathroom. It was done with an hour. Work was quality and professional. Absolutely would recommend"
"The man I talked to was very professional and timely. However, he explained that this particular job was beyond the scope of what their company does. I would certainly use them on another 'issue'. "
"They did a fine job but they were not able to solve one of the problems that I needed solved with my gutters. The first guy that came out was really arrogant and rude to my husband. The next guy they sent out to finish the job was really nice and wonderful. The scheduling was good and the cleanup was good."
Roger and his crew did a great job on both our kitchen and bathroom remodels. He was very responsive to my questions/ requests. I felt that we had a good working relationship throughout the whole process. He was easy to contact and returned calls/texts in a timely manner. The people that worked in our house were professional and did top quality work. When we had issues with work, we did not think looked its best or did not work properly, he came in a fixed them. It has been two months since our remodel was completed and I couldn't be happier. I love my new kitchen and bathroom. They are both exactly what I envisioned them to be and I appreciate that it was completed in the timeline that was outlined at the beginning of the project. I would highly recommend Roger Allen and Associates.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.
Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.
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.
Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.
If you’re just replacing a few broken or damaged joists, you can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 per joist. However, a complete installation for a home or room will take into account the cost of labor, which ranges from $25 to $40 per hour. Floor joist installation for an entire room, for example, can cost between $5,000 and $10,000, depending on the room's size and the materials used.
