"This is a followup to the former review. After the work was completed, several days later there was a hard rain. Rain water was pouring into both newly installed windows. Workers came a few days later and added caulking to the windows, More rain through the windows and workers again caulked, After the third rain, a tarp was put up on the back of the house but it was not tight enough to withstand the high winds and tore, The next day, a larger tarp was installed and was drilled into the wood of the house. In the meantime, since it did not seem that the cause of the problem was known. the window company was contacted by us and they sent a troubleshooter to see what the problem might be. Doug Furko, the contractor, was present at this meeting on 1/15/19 and agreed to get to the bottom of this. He has had some personal and professional issues to deal with and also the frigid weather is not in our favor. But here it is 1/23/19 and there is a blue tarp blocking the light from the entire rear of our house. It is like dusk inside, not to mention unsightly. Doug Furko is very personable, polite, and will return calls but this situation is difficult because we have a paid a price and things are not right. There is inconvenience and we do not know when and what is going to happen."

"We hired Anthony to perform a *laundry room addition* to our house. We live in an older home and wanted to take out a 2nd floor extra storage space that we were not using and convert it into a laundry room. The price was fair but the service and work were well above average. They go above and beyond and get the job done quickly without cutting corners and fixing previous DIY improvement disasters. I could not recommend Anthony and the company more. Look no further, because this is your guy."

"The porch demolition and rebuild took two and one-half days. I am very pleased with the results and all the comments I have received from friends and neighbors have been positive( including one from a neighbor who is a professional contractor). Tony's crew worked from shortly after sun up to sundown in 90 degree weather. A different neighbor who observed the men working praised the effort the crew put forth. I plan on using McCann's next summer for more work. P.S. Sorry for the delay in the review."

"A++++++. Bladamire and his team were PHENOMENAL AND SO HELPFUL! As a small business owner and designer, I know quality work and reliable contractors when I see them. He showed up when he said he would, even on a weekend, met my deadlines and his pricing was very reasonable. He went above and beyond my expectations and not only will I hire him again and again, but I recommend him to anyone I can. He can do EVERYTHING."

"The owners (Chris and Cal) did an excellent job on our remodeled project. They were personally involved with the project and worked directly with us during the entire planning and implementation of the work. They were true craftsmen. We wanted a contractor who could do the entire project and C&C fit the bill. They performed the drywall, flooring, windows, painting, electrical, and structural part of the job. We would highly recommend them ."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

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.
