"Martin did excellent with communication and keeping me informed about what needed to be done. He answers his phone or calls back quickly. He came out to assess the job quickly and started within a short amount of time. He shopped for all supplies needed and showed up ready to work. He completed the job within the time frame he said he would. As a woman I was very comfortable with him and his great personality and knowledge of the field. I would highly recommend him for any work you need large or small."

"I have used Contreras Renovations on a business and personal basis for over 25-years, and have come to appreciate and depend on the quality, pricing, and reliability of Rafael and Hector. They have been punctual, tidy and impecabilly honest. And are actually a lot fun to work with! After I retired, I was elected as the director of buildings and grounds at our condo development. In that capacity I hired Contreras Renovations to remodel our entire development over four-years. I’m delighted to say that after completion we are enjoying a beautiful restored community thanks to this Rafael and Hector at Contreras Renovations. I highly recommend this company."

As of April 2025, my wife and I decided to take the next step and become a licensed, bonded, and insured general contractor as I transition out of the military via retirement. Prior to that, my wife and I have over 12 years of experience together doing fix and flips, fix and holds, working on our own properties, completing projects for family and friends, along with taking on side jobs. We are fully capable of any remodel, aided by our 4 employees and growing, plus our solid sub-contractors that we have used over the years after going through a few unreliable ones, so you don't have to! When working with Apex Home Solutions, you can count on consistent and clear communication, being a part of any decision point that arises, and have the peace of mind that timelines and budgets are managed responsibly. All of our employees go through an extensive background check. Reach out for your free estimate, you won't be disappointed with our finishes.

"I hired Apex Home Solutions to do a complete remodel of a bathroom in a duplex that I own. In addition to the bathroom, I had a soundproof wall installed between the two units, new flooring throughout and complete interior paint. Zach and his team did a fantastic job. They had to tear the bathroom down to the studs, due to rot; and rebuild the structure. The bathroom turned out beautiful. The old flooring was in bad shape which required removal, the floor leveled, and new flooring installed. It is now better than ever. Throughout the process which took about a month, Zach was just a text away. He would call with updates to let me know how things were coming along. He returned all communications within a few minutes. It could not have been an easier, smoother or a more enjoyable process. Best of all the unit looks fantastic and was rented immediately. Zach and his team were complete professionals that can be trusted to go above and beyond!"

"Geo came and gave me an estimate on 3 porch post and a beam and sent a contract that defined what needed to be done. Talked to the subcontractors who weren't aware of the conditions or wheather they needed to install post brackets or any other procedures. The subcontractors talked to me about the need to replace concrete surrounding post and I told them, yes replace. Later I reazlized they hadn't neither caulked nor replace necesary concrete. From what I saw, they probably used the wrong type of post brackets for my particular situation. Somebody from Roof4Life needs to check and verify project is done correctly before they let subcontractors leave. They are the experts not me."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

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.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
