"We were very satisfied - Carl, the tech, came EXACTLY (seriously) on time - at 8:00am (he was scheduled to arrive between 8:00am - 8:30am); he knocked on the door, and as our doggy barked & warned us of 'an intruder', I looked at the clock & watched it tick to 8:01am.........  Amazing !

He kindly introduced himself & asked to confirm what we wished to have completed; he then immediately began working non-stop until approximately 3 hours later, he completed the tasks & showed us what he did.  We were very pleased with the work he did - everything looked great & he left no mess or anything !

We thanked him & told him we would definitely use Mr. Handyman in the near future, as we have an outside spigot that is loose and needs to be reinforced - he said, yep, can be done easily in about an hour...  So - we shall soon call Mr. Handyman again !!!

"Highly Recommended! Exceptional Experience from Start to Finish We hired RLC for a massive home renovation and could not be happier. Owners Rick and Linda Jenkins are an incredible team. Rick manages the construction with elite precision and craftsmanship, while Linda handles scheduling and finances flawlessly. Thanks to her organization, our large-scale project stayed strictly on schedule. What sets RLC apart: • True Professionalism: Communication was clear, honest, and professional throughout. • Daily Cleanliness: Rick and his crew cleaned the job site daily, making living through a remodel easy. • Top Subcontractors: Every specialist brought in was highly skilled and courteous. Rick and Linda took all the stress out of a massive project, and the final results exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend RLC for top-tier contracting!"

"Ultimate Craftsman, LLC, is an exceptional contractor. Mark Belvin is responsive and compassionate. Their resources include a master designer for the project and a specialist for kitchens, plus demolition/framing contractors, foundation specialists, and the like. Ultimate is supreme in design and construction and was in the top three on Home Advisor. The Ultimate designer, Dave, has the knowledge and the recommendations that put the TV personalities to shame when it comes to flipping. Ultimate's subcontractors: the Ellis Brothers are construction perfectionists, fast and precise and also of good nature; they are the kind of people who behave as though they were there to help their neighbor's project get done right. Last, but not least, are the HVAC technicians such as those at Point Services, and craftsmen such as R&B Masonry, who insure that the infrastructure of the home supports the total project. We are very pleased with the finished product."

Customers say: Quick response

"Kevin really took the time to walk my wife and I through various options, the pros and cons, and so forth. He did very well in keeping us informed throughout, keeping the project on time and on budget...and how often can you say that about a general contractor? I'd happily work with Kevin and Poquoson again and again."

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.
