"The work done was very good. We went back and forth over whether to install a vinyl or wood railing, finally settling on wood. I asked them to match what was existing on my porch. The handrail matched well, but the balusters were made from a lower grade wood with visible knots and defects, where the existing was clear pine. The handiwork on the railing was excellent. It is too bad they didn't spend a few more dollars on materials. The painting was good, although they failed to fill in dings and nail holes on my existing porch. Again, how much time does that take to go from a good job to an excellent job? After I wrote the above, someone came out from JTH to apply putty to the defects in the balusters and fill in the holes on the existing porch, then he re-painted. He was most kind about making it right. I pointed out to him that the painters painted around things on the porch that could have been easily removed, meaning some paint got on the door knocker and on the natural brick face of the house. There was also some spillage that I noticed after the job was done. We would not use them again for a painting job; we might consider for carpentry."

"First and foremost you can not go into a project such as this without having a collaborative relationship with the Contractor. 
My husband and I are 60+ and with all the work we did to get the house ready for this project we learned a lot,  Our primary role was to  get all materials needed by Justin and his crew to get the job done.
We brought the bamboo flooring, moulding, bathroom materials (vanity/mirror, tub, tile, grout, tank/commode, shower door), handrail/stairs, lights for top/bottom of the stairs and Justin got the paint, nails for the flooring, plaster and drywall.  Justin picked up materials from Home Depot as needed and went with me to get some of the materials to be sure it was correct. 
Justin created the work plan, we provided the key products. Justin has a crew that worked long hours to get the prep work done for the painting.  Taking down the popcorn ceiling made enough dust to have created its own dust storm. What a mess...LOL! 
The painter came one Saturday for painting.
The young man (Ariel) doing the flooring worked from 8am to 7pm on specific days.  This young man did an amazing job with the floors both hardwood and tile. What a work ethic he has!
Justin was always onsite each morning at 7am to make sure the crew had their assignments to complete the project and at the end of each work day progress was obvious.  No day passed without seeing visible progress.  They always cleaned up after themselves and took stuff to the dump to keep the site clear.
Since both my husband and I were out of the house during the day we had to leave the crew.  The trust with Justin and his crew created a situation that was both successful and non-intimidating.  Frustrations existed but were managed.  If issues come up they were addressed immediately; Justin made it easy to work this project.
One lesson we learned is to ask more questions and to be more specific.  Certain tasks were discussed but not written down; lesson learned.  Gotta keep a to do list!!  This is a collaborate effort so it not fair to expect the Contactor to know what you are thinking.  Remember its your home!
We had an issue with the tank/commode and did not clearly understand the problem; took several days to get a water leak corrected.  Justin's plumber was onsite twice, a visit to Home Depot and a second opinion finally resolved the issue.
Justin creates a work process that creates results.  The attention to the bigger picture allowed the project to get done.  Some days the vision was not so clear to us but the end product was a success."

"I had my hardwood refinished in a townhouse. They were extremely patient with me in trying to select a color to match other wooden accents in my home. Everyone loves my flooring now. The only reason I gave them a 4.5 instead of a 5, I wish they would have filled in all of the gaps with wood putty before staining."

"Davis contracting did a remarkable job repairing rotted exterior wood, painting all trim, replacing an old set of wooden steps to my back door and power washing and sealing my aging fence. Everything looks great. The construction team was skilled and diligent in their work and left the grounds completely cleaned up after each work day. I highly recommend Davis Contracting."

"They did great work painting our extensive exterior wood trim, repairing a section of our fascia, and installing an outdoor light. The technicians and the JW main office were both a pleasure to work with. The great thing about these guys is that if they discover a problem, they can almost always fix it themselves, since they have all the relevant skills. We have hired them often in the past and will not hesitate to do so again."

"Mr. Mendez and his crew did an excellent job with our skylights installation and painting our shutters and also painting our kitchen and family room. He is very responsive and completed the work very efficiently. Will definitely be calling him again for more painting projects. Highly recommend him. UPDATED AS OF 02/27/2022: Mr. Mendez also replaced our stair railing. He built everything from scratch. He also replaced some light fixtures. He does so much more besides painting. We plan on calling him when we renovate our lower family room."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

There are two ways you can cut trim for doorways: with a miter saw or a table saw. Mitered joints need a 45-degree angle. If you’re unfamiliar with a miter saw, you might want to consider buying extra trim pieces or choosing butted joints instead. One wrong cut, and you’ll need to power up the saw again with a new piece. 

Butted joints—also called shaker style—don’t need a 45-degree angle. Instead, your side pieces attach perpendicularly to the header trim and only require a straight cut.

A contract should outline the scope of work, timelines, costs, payment schedule, and materials used for clarity and protection.

If you’re just replacing a few broken or damaged joists, you can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 per joist. However, a complete installation for a home or room will take into account the cost of labor, which ranges from $25 to $40 per hour. Floor joist installation for an entire room, for example, can cost between $5,000 and $10,000, depending on the room's size and the materials used.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.
