"Having not worked with a contractor on this large of a project was a little daunting. Kevin did a nice job with communications, flexibility, and hitting our timeline. The craftsmanship was at or above our expectations. Also, his experience and knowledge were great in offering solutions and options when issues came up. We would use them again."
"Still waiting on finances, but John’s professionalism was far beyond the other 6 contractors! When I am ready to start the job, John is my first go to guy!"
"I was very happy with the work Castro did. I had a piece of Fascia blow off during a storm and needed to find someone who was able to shape the piece in order to properly fit. When I searched for companies on Angi Castro contacted me and came out to inspect the need the same day. They communicated very well, were quick to answer all of the questions that I had, and once I was ready to move forward with them they came out the next day to get it fixed. I was happy with the final product and would use them again for any other work I need."
"Mr. Price was a pleasure to deal with, came in on time and got the job done with none of of the horrible contractor nonsense we all fear. Would hire again in a hearbeat."
"It was great working with Josh on our remodel. He accomplished what we asked, was extremely diligent in completing the work and demonstrated his skills resulting in a beautiful bathroom. I had high expectations and Josh met them all."
"Greg and his team at "Easy Does It" were amazing to work with. Greg is professional and courteous, and always makes sure his client is happy. Our experience began due to a referral from a friend, then Greg came out, reviewed the property, then began his bid, which was timely and affordable. His timelines for the work he was going to do were spot on - he neither over or underestimated the time it would take. Once the work started, it seemed to go quickly. Every time I came back home at the end of the day, I was pleasantly surprised to see that the crew cleans up after themselves every afternoon, so my house was always organized, despite all the work being done. Greg responded quickly with questions that I had about the work, and was willing to tweak things here and there as the job progressed. If anything came up that wasn't discussed before, Greg always called, presented the options, and made sure we were on the same page going forward. At the end of the job, during the walkthrough, there were no hard feelings or getting defensive when I stated what I had seen that needed fixing, and usually Greg had noted the same things himself that needed to be touched up or redone. It was a pleasure to work with Greg and his team, and I'll be sure to call them again if I need to do some home improvement in the future. If you're looking for a general contractor, stop your search here and Hire Greg!"
"Damian and his workers were available almost immediately and the work he provided was excellent. Reliable and hardworking and I’d definitely recommend them."

Will be using them in the near future and have given there contact information the Property Manager to refer them other home owners on property. Thank you extremely grateful. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.
Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.
It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
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.
