"My wife and I bought a summer cottage in Fontana, WI that we wanted to turn into a year-round home in December 2021. This was our first significant remodel of any home we’ve ever owned. At that time, many contractors were very busy and/or very expensive. We discussed our project with at least a dozen potential contractors. We chose MH Renovations, and we are thrilled with that decision. Project. We completely remodeled the existing kitchen and 2 full bathrooms. We replaced all flooring and repainted the entire inside. We replaced and added wood trim in various rooms. We replaced the boiler, added A/C, and replaced a large portion of the electrical system. Value. We felt the quality of workmanship was above average, and the cost was below average. Generally, we agree with the old axiom that you get what you pay for. So, we felt we got more than we paid for. For a couple who’s generally quite frugal, that’s saying a lot. Decisions. With any large project like this, there are a thousand decisions to be made. This contractor seemed to know exactly which decisions they should make and which to let the homeowner make. We were glad to be shielded from the smaller decisions and be asked on the bigger ones. Just right. Communications. Just perfect. Not too much, and we never felt in the dark on anything. Changes. With a large project, we expected we’d want to make some changes during the project. That was true, and the contractor was perfectly happy to accommodate those requests and give us options. Perfect. Schedule. At a time when most contractors were giving start dates of 6-8 months out and more, this contractor quoted us just 3 months to begin. That was about the earliest of any quote. We were thrilled when they even were able to start a month earlier. And after they began, they pressed to keep the project on time, working with various sub-contractors, while shielding us from any of that pain. So our project started early (Feb 2022), completed with the expected duration, and ended early (April 2022). Far exceeded our expectations. Unexpected issues. As with any large project, there will always be some unforeseen issues. For ours, it was the existing electrical system. The subcontracted electrician uncovered ungrounded outlets, missing switch and outlet boxes, wiring comprised of foot-long parts, and bare wires. All you can hope for is that those problems get identified and rectified correctly, and that it doesn’t cost an arm and a leg. Our contractor kept us informed and searched for related, hidden issues once problems became clear. Our contractor genuinely felt bad about this added cost, and very generously did some of the work without adding cost. This is going above and beyond for your customer. Our contractor handling these unexpected issue as well as we could have hoped for. Budget. If we hadn’t added any requests during the project and didn’t uncover the hidden/existing electrical issues, we would haven been right on budget. The unexpected electrical work added ~10% to the entire budget. That overrun was about what we expected when we budgeted for this project, so we felt we came out just fine on budget. Was it fun? Yes! We truly enjoyed our discussions/calls/texts/emails with our contractor. We genuinely liked our contractor, and that made the experience a lot less stressful and painful than it could have been otherwise. These are our people. And we liked their employees and their sub-contractors too. Everyone we encountered was just a pro. Would we hire this contractor again? Definitely. I’m sure we will, and we won’t bother calling anyone else."

"The service was very good. The person who owns the business does the estimating and presents the estimate to you. He is very knowledgable and has been the business for 30 years. He is honest and answers any of your questions or concerns. He wants to do things the way you want them and get them done right. The only draw back was the schedule was a little late. This is only because of his work load. He was supposed to start on the given day and he started a week later. It was not a problem for us at all. When the project started he was done on time. In terms of how long he said it would take he had that down pretty good. He was in and out like he said he would be."

"Patrick and his crew were efficient, friendly, professional and hard workers. They were on time, to the minute, the flooring looks wonderful and I would recommend the company to everyone needing flooring-It was all done within a week! I couldn't have asked for anyone better. Actually I would give them 10 stars-and believe me, I have had a lot of companies do work for me-none were better than PK flooring."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

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.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.
