"Robert was great to communicate with! Him and the other man who worked with him, Mike, were wonderful and answered all the questions my fiancé and I had! I am so thrilled with the job that I have asked Robert to come back for another project next weekend! I emailed many contractors on Angie’s list prior to Robert and I believe that due to the smaller size of the job, many contractors were not willing to work with us. Robert is willing to work with you no matter how big or small the job and he truly cares if you’re happy. I think I’ve found our contractor for all our projects we need done! Thank you!!!"
"Joe and his team were dependable, respectful and experienced. ALL-Phase did a basement room addition with soundproofing as well as electrical updating through out the house. They also installed an stovetop vent to the external of the house. This is one of the best contractor experiences I've ever had. I'd be sure to contact them again for future work."

"Everything about this project went the way we wanted it to. We cannot imagine how it could have gone any better. We needed the work to be done in the shortest time window possible since a disabled parent had to be temporarily located to another part of house during the work. Dan and his son were able to schedule us in and he completed the work extremely quickly. The quality of the work on all aspects is outstanding! Most remodeling projects sometimes present some challenges and surprises. Dan is very flexible and creative in helping come up with the best solution that keeps the project near the cost and time targets. Dan has a positive and friendly approach to his work. He is very honest and realistic in his estimates of time and cost, and it is very clear he strives to hit on both. He is a pleasure to have in your house if you will be staying there during the remodeling work. If you are looking for a highly skilled, trustworthy, and professional contractor to do remodeling work in the Berks County area - you should give Dan a call. I give him the STRONGEST RECOMMENDATION possible."
"The repairman communicated with me about arrival time and was punctual. He completed most of the jobs on my list. He was unable to complete the soffit replacement, he indicated that type of work required a general contractor. All in all, I was satisfied."
"Mark Snyder at Handy Helpers LLC did a fantastic job on our remodel in Downingtown, PA. I shared my vision with him for the space, and he executed it beautifully. Mark was professional, prompt, and his price was very reasonable. I would hire him again without question and recommend him to friends and family!"
"After meeting with several local contractors, we determined that Ramsey Builders would be the best fit for our project. Professional, reliable, and responsive. Far too many details to recount. Jeff oversaw everything from pouring footers and a new slab, to the framing of the walls and roof, installation of windows and siding, plumbing, and drywall. Very flexible in terms of work days and plans. At several points we added ideas to the design and he was more than willing to accommodate. We continue to work with him on various projects as needed."
Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts
The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.
Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.
Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.
The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.
