"Our two-man crew completed the demolition of the old fence and installation of the replacement fence in 2 1/2 days. They arrived on time, worked full days, and kept us apprised of their progress. The debris from the old fence was stacked neatly until removed. The new fence looks great, and the clean-up was thorough. We would recommend Goodrow's to anyone."

"They have now done two separate jobs on different occasions. Jobs consisted of preparing a floor for carpeting after a animal had ruined the previous carpet and wood. Also fixed my front door which was a little crooked so it stuck. I then called them back for drywall work after I had redid my plumbing. Excellent, professional work for both jobs. Well priced. Went above and beyond. Was also very nice and great to talk to. All around great work that I recommend. And I know we will have other projects for this company."

Customers say: Super punctual

"Jack and his crew did a fantastic job on our house. I don't typically write reviews such as this,
but the level of service and passion for quality of work has motivated me to
write about my experience.
The end product was well above expectations, but here are some extra highlights to demonstrate how
great it was to work with Jack and his team:
1. We had originally requested a new tile surround for our shower and tub. When Jack's team removed the old
tile he found that the people who remodeled our house had framed in empty space at the end of our tub in order to fit a cheaper, standard sized tub. Jack advised us that, if we wanted, he could re-frame the wall to utilize the extra space and we could fit a larger, higher quality tub in our bathroom.
I loved that Jack collaborated with us on this change instead of just executing the originally planned job to the T. This was a great bonus for us and now we have a fantastic new, bigger bath tub thanks to Jack going out of his way to present this option to us.
2. Our kitchen originally had tile that connected to hardwood floors on both kitchen exits, and did not have any transitions (there was just grout in between), which was ugly. Jack created custom transitions for us and was adamant about getting them
to match our 1940s wood floors. Jack was not satisfied until it was perfect, and went through at least 10 different iterations of various wood grains and stains until he got them to match just right. I was really impressed by his attention to detail, and the transitions now look like they were created with the original house.
3. The new vanity we had delivered turned out to have a small crack in the marble counter top that went un-noticed until after it was installed (the crack was the fault of the company we purchased from). Jack returned to our house over a month later to remove the faulty vanity and replace it with a new one, no questions asked.
I would (and plan to) hire Jack and his team back for other jobs, and you should too.

"These guys at Topaz remodeling crushed it. from day one, they were on point- super chill but all about the details . Every little thing I asked for, they nailed it, and then some. They didn't just build, they leveled up my whole place with smart, creative touches I never would've thought of. My house went from basic to badass. If you want real quality and people who actually care, hit them up."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.
