"Very impressed with this group. The estimator was knowledgeable and gave a very fair price, half as much as another estimate. The carpenter was skilled, neat, and communicated well, cared about our satisfaction. The scheduler is friendly and very good at reminders when they are coming. They replaced several sections of paneling in the basement and reattached the old trim which was tricky, matched and provided the panels, They even returned to fix something my husband had installed wrong. Highest recommendation of any outfit I've worked with."

"Nestor and his team did a great job replacing our under deck roofing after a squirrel got into our old roofing and built a massive nest. He recommended a great product, his expectation of quality product is impressive and they sealed up every side so we are nearly squirrel proof, including an area on our deck where a small board needed installed to close a gap left by the original builder years ago. He also tweaked the plan based on feedback from our HOA. I would highly recommend them for any deck project. Knowledgeable. Efficient. Responsive. Professional. We are thrilled with the outcome!"

"I recently had the pleasure of hiring Crowning Touch to work on a wall feature in my condo, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, they exceeded all expectations. Right from the initial consultation, it was evident that professionalism was his hallmark. Guy was consistently punctual, arriving on time and ready to work diligently. His cordial demeanor made the entire process not only smooth but also enjoyable. One of the most notable aspects of his service was his attention to detail. Despite the challenges posed by working in a condo environment, they exhibited a level of care and precision that truly set him apart. It was evident that he took great pride in his craft, ensuring that every aspect of the project was executed flawlessly. What's more, Crowning Touch’s pricing was incredibly reasonable, offering excellent value for the high-quality work they delivered. In a market where quality often comes at a premium, Crowning Touch provides an unbeatable combination of affordability and excellence. Without a doubt, I will be returning to Crowning Touch for any future carpentry needs.

"Two level deck needed minor surface rot repair, power washing, and staining. Flores Enterprises LLC quoted and completed the work in the same business week. Attention to detail on staining is excellent. Provided photos of repairs and completed work and kept me informed on any issues which arose. Would definitely hire again."

"Great. Mike and I talked briefly through Angie's List messaging system, I described what I needed, he quoted an hourly rate along with estimate of time needed, we set up a time and were good to go. Showed up on time, I explained what I needed done showing him each item and he got to work. Kitchen faucet: I thought it was just a bad washer or o-ring, but it turned out to be a plastic part (that interacted with a metal part) that had worn out deep inside the faucet, which he found by disassembling the faucet. Showed me where it was and what it did, and unfortunately there was no replacement part available. Also explained that he had seen black/rusty water when he was taking things apart and the valve/lines under the sink needed replacing too. (This explained some odd tastes we were getting from the sink water.) He asked me what type of faucet and quality level I wanted (cheapest, most expensive, middle), went out and bought it plus the other needed parts, returned and installed it all. Works great and the water doesn't taste odd anymore. What I thought was a simple job turned out to be more complex and longer. Bathroom sink faucets: Fairly straight forward replacement, though he did have to shorten the connecting rod connecting the drain plug to the post you pull to close the drain. There isn't much space under the cabinets! Also pointed out a small leak in the pipes underneath, which he fixed as well. And he cleaned out all the build up in one of the drains so it drains promptly now. Toilet: Replaced the clogged valve in a jiffy along with the feed line and the tank hardware, and now, instead of taking 20 minutes to refill, it refills in a short time, stops when it's suppose to stop, and doesn't leak. Bathroom: Removed the towel rack, moved and leveled the shelf. And, he tightened the nut holding the toilet seat cover onto the toilet without even being asked, just because he noticed it. (We had lived with it after my attempts to tighten it hadn't worked.) Kitchen cabinet: Removed the drawer and pointed out that the wheel rails can spread at the back, from use. Closed the spread and now the drawer slides in and out perfectly. (I felt dumb for not having figured that out, but now I know.) Cleanliness: He had canvas drop cloths to catch any dirt or grime he generated as well as for protecting the floor. Had a trash bag for any trash generated (such as the faucet boxes) and used it as he went, rather than gathering the trash at the end. Honesty: Even though he ended up doing several extra things (valves and lines under kitchen sink, fixed a leak under bathroom sinks, toilet seat cover nut), I did not get the vibe that he was finding these just to do them and earn more money. The kitchen faucet issue agreed with what we had already observed, and the leak in the bathroom sink cabinet was real and (obviously!) needed fixing. And the seat cover nut, well, that was just a nice touch. All in all, I am very pleased with the results. Very pleased with his attitude and willingness to dig in to get the job done and working until it was. He explained the extra work needed as he found it, and didn't bother me unduly (I had my own work to do, as well, working remotely that day). And when I stepped over to see how it was going, he gave a precise update. He had all the tools needed (most of which I don't have, such as plumber's putty), and he had several spare parts in his truck so he wasn't constantly driving over to Home Depot. In short, he came prepared. Turned out to be 8 hours of work instead of the original estimate of 5 or less. Charged by the hour, and for the faucet and valve and bit of pipe installed (about $200 in parts). I like that flexibility, rather than charging a flat rate for a block of time (4 hours or 8 hours is what I've seen elsewhere on Angie's List site). The rate was competitive and I tipped him as well. The amount indicated in this review is for parts and labor only."

"Bledar and his team repaired our laundry room after some water damage. They did a wonderful job. They did the work in the time frame quoted and for a reasonable price. They were professional, kind, and went above and beyond. We will definitely use them again the future!"

"We're glad to have hired OSSA Home Repair to turn an ordinary exercise room into a SPA room with laundry and vanity sink. Our vision starts with John Simon who engineered the design of the wall tiles with a half-wall to conceal the new plumbings. Johnny Ossa and his team of plumbers and electricians worked diligently to ensure we were on schedule despite losing days of work due to weather inclement. The end result looks astonishing. The half wall turns out much better than our expectations. We now have a very Zen place in our home where we can relax. Thank you OSSA! We will definitely hire them again for other projects."

"Mark and his team were phenomenal! I highly recommend his service! I had to quickly turn my 25 year old home into a quality, long-term rental unit. I needed a team that I could trust to fully assess the house, get on the schedule quickly, and get the job done right. Mark was punctual, organized, transparent, and very easy to talk to as I walked through my long list of small and big repairs. He helped me prioritize items and made sensible recommendations. His team executed the plan on schedule and remained onsite for 2 weeks through completion. The crew was professional, thorough, and cleaned up each night. When we uncovered additional items, Mark and his team explored the options to identify the best solution. It was clear that they respected each otherâ s opinions on solving the more complicated repairs and they cared that I had a good outcome. I could not be more pleased. It was a smooth, stress-free experience. Thank you to Mark and his wonderful team; my home looks great! Replaced roof; painted 80% of interior house and exterior white trim; lifted/leveled deck, assessed for rotted wood, and stained; re-aligned tall vertical wood privacy wall and stained; power washed exterior; fixed creaky wood floorboards under carpet; fixed exterior rusted iron railings and wooden railing inside house; repaired highly damaged closet wall and re-hung shelving; re-finished wood floors and stained; re-stained nicked wooden bathroom vanities for fresh look; replaced 3 exteriors doors with new framings that included a set of French doors; poured concrete slab for large A/C unit that needed new foundation; prepared driveway for full asphalt replacement by creatively leveling and protecting a small, sunken embedded emergency drain pipe in the driveway; discovered and repaired disconnected dryer vent pipes in the wall and replaced drywall; replaced rotted wood on front porch portico; and repaired cement cracks in the masonry located on the front facade of the home."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

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.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.
