"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

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
