"Haim came out and brought his fence man with him. They gave us several options and we decided to go with a stained cedar fence with two gates. The next week they showed up and while one part of the crew was tearing down the old fence, another crew was working on the new one. It took a few days, but we now have a beautiful stained cedar fence. Like the other times they never left debris in our yard, as they cleaned up every day after their work was done. We chose a wood lattice patio arbor. It was of the same stained cedar, and it's very rustic and we are looking forward to many days sitting under the arbor to escape the Texas sun. The thing about G.H. Construction, is they show up on time and work a full day. They are supervised and if we had any questions or concerns, they responded in short order and eased our concerns. We are so pleased we are considering siding on the house. You can be sure we will use G.H."

"Carlos and his team did an amazing job building out my new fence and the new patio cover, as well as laying a concrete slab for the patio. Would highly recommend them. From his work, he's gotten two other jobs in the neighborhood."

"I chose Marcelino because of all the high ratings he received for his work. He lived up to the praise in both his work and treatment of me as a customer. His prices are very reasonable, he and his crew are on time and very professional. He not only treated me with patience and friendliness, but his work was excellent. In fact, he helped me figure out what I needed and did great designs for the work. One other thing that was very important to me is that other companies I quoted would have limits on what they did. So when I had specialized needs or little requests, they would say, "We don't do that." But Marcelino would do it. He did everything I needed, even small specialized things, and all completely professional. He went above and beyond. I hired him three times. First for my bedroom closet and office credenza. Then for a living room credenza, bathroom cabinets, kitchen roll-out cabinets and laundry room build out. Now, he is going to do my garage. I wouldn't use anyone else."

"I scheduled the crew from Handyjoe to assemble a 3 seat patio swing. There were a lot of parts for this. The crew arrived on time and went right to work. They had a backpack with all the tools needed for this type of project. They stayed with the job until the swing was completely assembled and located on the patio where we wanted it. The crew was courteous and the price was reasonable for this type of project. I was very pleased with the outcome."

"This was a major scope-creap project.  Started out with repairs to a closet that had held the water heater.  Then we expanded the project to include refinishing and painting  the walls in two bedrooms, a hall, a bathroom, the laundry room - and installing wood floors in the entire bedroom wing of the house, including closets.  So all furnishings were removed and replaced.  Plus we added new doors through-out the house - started with three doors and finished with 12 - door frames are all off alittle due to this being a 45 year-old house.
Paul and his team were very flexible, were very diligent, and cleaned up after themselves.  They started at 8:00 am and finished at 6:00 pm.  They only took breaks for lunch - no smoke breaks, or rest breaks - they worked!
When I asked about floors, Paul brought in a sub-contractor that laid new hickory foors - previously carpet - and they were finished to our specifications with a matching stain to the wood in our living areas.
Paul Alvarez was on-site throughout the project and acted as my project manager - we had a running list of items that we worked through  together and he kept up with the list.
The last item that they finished was the wine closet that they created from the old water heater closet - creative solution.
We will have Paul and team back after the first of the year to refinish our bedroom/office, which will be a small project by comparison.
Paul helped us to create solutions around color and texture for the rooms that we finished and he ensured that the work was performed to our satisfaction.  His team treated our home and furnishings with the same care that they would use in their own homes - they were all professional and courteous.

"Great. Requested an estimate first. Gave great price. Everyone was great to work with. Kris, who came out to give estimate, was patient and answered all my questions. The installation crew, led by Carlos, worked efficiently and quickly in spite of my interruptions. Fence was up quicker than I had imagined. It looks great. Highly recommend them."

"Needed a barbed wire fence installed between my neighbor and I, with corner and center supports. Only about 230 total feet. Hector and his crew showed up that morning when promised and got to work. They finished that afternoon and the fence was perfect. They did an exceptional job! I would not hesitate to recommend HM Services! In fact I will be using them in the future!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

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.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

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.
