"I recently hired Marvin for a deck repair job which I have to say did an amazing job! He called right away made, provided an estimate, and completed the job in just under a day. Being in my position he was affordable and will definitely rehire for other projects. I highly recommend his services to anyone else needing handyman repairs. Thanks again :)"

"We had a clear idea of what we wanted for this project, and when I contacted Jose, the first impression was excellent which, as we know, makes all the difference. He listened carefully to our ideas and provided thoughtful feedback on what could be achieved. From our initial concept to the final result, the experience was outstanding. It truly felt as though the build was being done for his own home or a family member—every detail was handled with care. Communication was consistent and personal, with daily updates that kept us informed throughout the process. We’re extremely happy with the outcome. If we have any future projects at home, we already know who to call. Excellent work highly recommended!"

"Due to a City of San Antonio road expansion project, I had to completely change the way I entered, parked and exited my personal vehicle onto my property. My present garage entry was no longer available to me. I now needed to have access into my garage from the opposite end of the garage building. Alamo City Handyman was paramount in helping me accomplish this multi-level goal. Dave successfully and smoothly coordinated this multi-phase project and cannot thank him and his company enough! Dave set up and provided an Electrician to install a new electrical outlet for the new garage door opener. The electrician arrived on time, he attached the long, electrical wire run neatly to the garage’s sheet rock ceiling, the newly installed outlet worked perfectly and he cleaned his work area nicely. Very professional job. Dave set up and provided the Construction Crew to make ready the garage wall (the opposite wall from the old garage door entry) for my vehicle’s entry, parking and exit. The tasks included; cutting out a 7 ft by 8 ft opening in the wall, supporting the opening with a new truss on the top and timbers on the side, framing and painting around the new opening and building a wooden ramp inside the garage to accommodate the different ground levels from outside to inside the garage. The last and most important step to me was to secure/close up the new opening with plywood and wooden cross braces until the new garage door arrived! Richard and his crew did an excellent job at each level on this part of the project! Dave set up and provided the Garage Door Installer crew. Alex and his installed my new garage door and door opener. This was a from scratch installation job that included; mounting new rail tracks and springs on the garage ceiling, installing the door itself, setting up the safety travel of the door, installing the new Lift Master garage door opener on the garage door wall, programming the new opener and the two remotes. Alex and crew did a very job on the trim work around the new garage door. All the door’s sensor wires were neatly placed and secured. Alex’s work was very meticulous and through at this last but extremely important stage of my new garage door project."

"I was a construction manager for several years and I know what to look for. The work performed for me was installing new door and frame and repairing front door frame. The work was performed in an outstanding manner and attention to detail was greatly noted. Will definitely use services in future."

Customers say: Quality work

"We are very pleased we chose Bustamante House Remodeling to build our fence. From beginning to end, the Bustamantes were professional and thorough! After coming out to review the property, they walked me through the construction process and provided a sound estimate and time to completion on the spot. Their team was on time to start the work and completed the work before the deadline even though we experienced a thunderstorm in the middle of the project. I would recommend Bustamante House Remodeling to others and plan to use them again soon!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

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.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
