"Excellent. After dealing with several unethical contractors, Innovo was a breath of fresh air. They were trustworthy, professional, punctual and did a great job. Would highly recommend and hire again."

"I had two marks on my ceiling from leaks. Super friendly and easy to work with from the first call about a quote. The repairman was professional and thorough, came out to give me a quote & went from there. I would definitely hire again! Before and after pics!"

I come from a family of builders, carpenters, and mechanics, which shaped my strong work ethic and attention to detail. I owned and operated Roberts Construction for 15+ years, building custom homes and hotels, managing every phase—from foundation to final finishes, including custom staircases and cabinetry.\nI also owned and operated A1 Extreme in houston texas which was a car audio shop, specializing in custom wooden and fiberglass subwoofer enclosures, with several award-winning builds done.\nI take pride in doing every job the right way—never cutting corners. When I commit to a project, you can expect professional, on-time work with quality I stand behind. If I’m not confident I can do it right, I won’t take the job.

"I have had over 30 contractors at my home as it has been basically rebuilt.  This company has been the most professional i have dealt with.  Showed up on time, communicated progress, cleaned up at the end of each day COMPLETELY, came with all necessary tools and supplies.
Along the width of the house, all of the walls were removed from the floor to aprox 2 feet.  Lower portion of studs and base plates removed, walls sealed with amazing product, studs, base plate and walls replaced (not the sheetrock).  All lower level floors sealed.
We have had over 5" of rain in the last 24 hours.  This is the first time since i have owned this house that the floors have not flooded when we have saturated soil and heavy rain. 
Incredible product, excellent company.  i highly recommend both.

"Excellent communication among each other which made the remodeling move quickly and keep the cost down, with Mr. Paul inspecting the walls and insulation (great advice to inspect before installing the new sheetrock), I had the crew removed the mold that was in the walls and added new sections of walls and insulation (stop roof leaks), I had them rebuild a new porch and added new vent for my roof including several windows. Thank you Paulà ¢à  à  s Constructors, LLC"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

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.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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.

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.
