"I recently did a complete renovation of the bathroom/dressing room in my condo with GH Construction Services and cannot recommend them highly enough. I had been dreading the process of working with a contractor, but Haim made it all seamless and eased all my concerns. He came out several times in advance to ensure the quote and scope of work were correct, making sure that all needs were covered and making a number of very helpful suggestions. Once the project started he made sure everything was sequenced properly to ensure the work was completed within a very reasonable timeframe. The work itself was top-notch, and Haim kept me informed at all turns about progress and the few minor glitches. I am thrilled with the end product and plan to go to GH Construction again for further home renovation projects."

"As a professional carpenter and cabinet maker, I had been confident in my ability to restore the all-wood 100 year old house my wife and I purchased when moving to Texas.  Over the course of the first year, I realized my confidence wasn't misplaced, but it would take me approximately eleventy bajillion more months to finish by myself than I had originally estimated.  Admittedly in over my head, I started looking for reinforcements.
I contacted about a dozen companies from referrals and online reviews.  Enthusiasm and prices were all over the board; after many dropped off the face of the earth or were clearly not that excited about taking on a difficult, grueling job, I selected Brian and his crew from the remaining three.  His pricing structure made me a little nervous (weekly rates versus a flat bid), but I appreciated his excellent communication (very rare, I discovered) and his instant understanding of what I had gotten myself into.
Brian's crew was excellent.  They showed up on time, we collaborated on an initial plan of attack, and his guys immediately set to building an incredibly intricate series of scaffolding - which allowed them to get up close to third-story areas I had all but given up on.  After three months, the entire house had been transformed, and we were receiving raves from anyone passing by about how great the place looked.  In a neighborhood known for constant high-end renovations and battles against mother nature's destructive powers, Lakewood Restoration's results were clearly way above the norm.  And this is coming from an unusually persnickety craftsman/carpenter (whom they graciously contended with all along the way).
My only minor issue came with the cost.  It was difficult to compare them against other bids, and my wife and I wound up spending considerably more than we had initially planned (but when doesn't that happen).  We would have probably spent even more with other traditional companies and dealt with unending change orders, though, so in the end I'm fully satisfied with their value.  I don't regret signing off on anything I shifted onto their scope.  It was also clear that they were not the turn-and-burn type of contractor who were just out to make a buck; they do great work at the appropriate speed without trying to race on to the next job or constantly up-sell services.
In the end, I highly recommend using these guys, especially if you have a non-traditional project that requires more attention and communication than one of the giant companies can provide.  I've already recommended them on other projects in which I'm involved, and I'll continue to enthusiastically enlist their services when I have the need!

"I had some wood rot around the entrance to my garage so metroplex pro builders came out and gave an estimate. Manny was professional and flexible. He was willing and able to meet me at my convenience. We signed a contract and workers were here the next morning. Manny and his crew got the job done. They did five star work. I recommend them for professionalism and quality work. And they get the job done fast."

"Paul and co. did an excellent job. This was our second time working with Paul and we highly recommend him and his crew. They gave us a firm price and were very responsive. Also, they were extremely professional and friendly. I do believe that he and his son will be our contractors for a very long time. Very pleased with the results."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

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.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.
