"Reliable Hurricane Solutions recently installed shutter panels on all the windows of my home. I am very satisfied with their work. The installation was professional and timely. The owner, Geremiah Roulston, took special care to insure that each panel was correctly aligned with the individual window; adding extra hardware, as needed, to secure a tight fit. The panels are of good quality, sturdy, yet light enough to handle easily; making hurricane protection simpler as well as secure. i would highly recommend this company for any shutter installation work you might need."

"Do not hire Jose Arredondo or Arredondo Welding. I hired him to install a security number pad to my iron gate. He asked that pay for the materials keypad upfront so he could install and asked that I Zelle the money to his wife account. Unfortunately, I did. It is now been almost 3 weeks - he has not done the work, has not returned the money, and he refuses to communicate with me or my contractor."

"If I could give zero stars, I would. We hired Mustang Fence through Angie’s List, and the entire experience has been a complete nightmare. They never finished the work, installed things incorrectly, and their communication was abysmal. Weeks would go by without a response. We called multiple times, set multiple appointments, and yet they showed up whenever they felt like it—completely ignoring scheduled times. They ripped out our old gate, left it on the property, and left holes in the wall unpatched. Screws were sticking out dangerously, and nothing felt secure. The keypad they installed never worked properly. The “0” button didn’t function, which left us locked out of our own property. For over a week, we couldn’t lock or close the gate, leaving our home exposed. Instead of fixing their defective installation, they tried to charge us an additional $750 for a worse replacement. On September 28, 2025, their manager Sam came onsite, saw firsthand that the keypad didn’t work, and admitted they weren’t “professionals” with that product. Yet he still tried to upcharge us $750 to downgrade to a basic lock. When we pressed him on why we should pay more for their own mistakes, his excuse was, “We wanted what the customer wanted.” That is not accountability. That is negligence. When asked politely to leave the property, Sam even stood in the gate to block entry. At one point, they installed a handle accessible only from the outside, leaving us forced to pry the gate open with our fingers from the inside, an outright hazard. For weeks, we waited for them to resolve these issues. Each time, they ignored scheduled appointments and came unannounced, at random times, with no respect for our time. Yes, the fence may look nice at first glance, but it is completely dysfunctional and unsafe. Mustang Fence is unprofessional, unreliable, and dishonest. They do shoddy work on their own terms, make excuses instead of taking responsibility, and treat paying customers with zero respect. This has been one of the worst contractor experiences of my life, and I strongly warn anyone: stay far away from Mustang Fence."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.
