"I hired Silver Munoz for a build-out at the San Antonio Oyster Bake Fest. He built braces onto the back of the fences, added sand bags, and was there to help load in and load out. He and his crew did an amazing job. I would 100% recommend Silver for any job moving forward!"

"We were given a competitive quote, and the custom shed build exceeded expectations. The owners went out of their way to check on the quality of work and make sure we were satisfied. I would definitely recommend this company based on our experience."

"Very professional and takes pride in his work. I was shocked he cleaned up after himself other contractors I had in my house did not. He is always on time. Takes extreme care to ensure my other household goods and flooring was cover. He is a master carpenter I have referred him to my neighbors. He is my go to man because I know I will get quality work at reasonable prices"

"Signed contract for 1,000 sq ft floating deck and railing atop 3-car garage, some Hardie boards installed on end of 2nd story house facing deck, painting, caulking, etc. 24/25Aug Hardie installer did an unprofessional job. 12,13&15 Sep, first paint crew did lousy job caulking and painting Hardie boards. 5Oct, second paint crew did more caulking and tried to better paint job. Still blotchy, but tired at this point dealing with company. Threatened to pay for what was done and terminate contract, but owner threatened to have his attorney contact us. We continued after having an hour-long meeting with the owner to get things on the "right track;" however, nothing changed. 11-23Oct, deck installers installed sub-frame pressure-treated lumber and Trex decking, steps, and porch cover. A very nice job. 23Oct, sub-contractor did excellent job installing a metal roof on the porch. 24/25Oct, another crew did a beautiful job installing railings. 30/31Oct, second paint crew did poor paint job and poor storm door install. 6Nov, had to have Hardie board door frame removed and replaced with cedar (wood) frame for storm door to be properly attached. 7Nov, Third, yes third, paint crew showed up to paint and caulk door frame and touch up 2nd paint crew's poor paint job. Contract and advertisement state "no money paid till job completed." On 19Oct owner asked for "$25K or $30K payment" as he needed funds. I acquiesced and gave him $20K. Final payment of $26K was made on 8Nov17. The day final payment was made, I had a question about Trex and went to the Trex web site and discovered the wolmanized/pressure-treated sub-frame lumber used for the floating deck should have had Trex Protect Joist and Beam Tape installed doubling the life expectancy from 10 to 20 years--confirmed via e-mail from Trex customer service. Was disappointed this professional company with a "passion for quality deck construction" wasn't aware of this product. (Did ask Diamond Deck owner why this wasn't used in our last e-mail to him, no response--he had our money. After agreeing to a $46K contract, certainly another $500 or so for beam tape to double the life of our sub-frame wouldn't have been an issue.) This 10-week project was the most stressful remodeling experience in our lives. Extremely poor communication, project managers who don't oversee a job nor coordinate work with homeowner and workers, and excuses galore. The company obviously takes on too many jobs sacrificing quality and leaving the homeowner feeling like this is a side-line project and "we'll get to you when we can." Also, we are still cleaning up behind the crews (oil stains all over our driveway from sub-contractor/employee vehicles, unused screws, cigarette butts, etc.). We paid for our own porta-potti as none was offered. During this 10-week ordeal (albeit we did have several weeks of poor weather or shipping delays) we had NUMEROUS e-mails, texts, phone calls & some meetings--totally uncalled for if this was"

"After examination it was determined it could not be fixed and it was recommended it be replaced. Arrangements were made and a metal ladder (wooden no longer available) was installed. It was framed and painted. The door was also painted. The installer also installed some molding around the opening to keep out cold air.*****"

"I can’t recommend D Michael Designs enough!! Dave was incredibly helpful from beginning to end. He was very transparent with pricing and timeline which I appreciated. His sub contractors did great work. He gave me regular status updates and I never had a late arrival with anyone on his team. The finished product of my kitchen remodel is beautiful and I am so thankful I was referred to this company. I will be using him in the future for any further projects and already recommended to friends and family."

"I had a pool deck built by this company. The quality of his work was excellent. He started early in the morning and worked until dark. My deck was done in two days in time for our 4th of July party. I highly recommend this company, you will be pleased with his work. I love my new deck!!!"

"David was the only handyman listed to answer his phone on a Sunday. I needed work done the following Saturday as it was our only day off. He doesn't typically work on Saturday but agreed to do the work. He arrived on time and got right to work on hanging a very delicate chandelier in a very high place. He also installed a doggie door. They were very professional, finished in a timely manner and charged a fair price. I would use them again and recommend them."

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.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

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.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces.
