Get matched with top carpentry framing repairers in Port Bolivar, TX

"I first hired Gary for some minor drywall work. He was quick, thorough, very easy to get along with, and his prices can't be beat. After a most enjoyable experience, I had him perform numerous other repairs, including finishing a wooden wall project that had been dragging on for years prior to hiring him, painting the entire exterior of my house, and rebuilding a large back porch. Gary can literally do it all, and at a price that leaves you grinning from ear to ear. He's a rare find these days, and I'm giving him my highest recommendation. Mr. Brown will complete your projects on time (or sooner!) and well within your budget. Thanks, Gary!"

"Setcon was on time, Repaired the doors with Knowledge and experience and completed the work in good time. Very Satisfied with Brandon and Steve."

"Mark Gonzales did a great job repairing the wood rot on my front windows. It took him the best part of two full days and he seemed to do a thorough and professional job. Unlike some providers, his bid seemed very fair, and I felt like I got very good value for the money. I highly recommend him."

"After looking at the job and giving me a quote, they came back the next day and got the whole job done in one day as promised. They used drop cloths and cleaned up after themselves so it looked like new."

"We ordered the pad, they sent us a kit to create the template used to make the pad. Was easy to use and sent it back. A few weeks later the pad came and fit perfectly. I couldn't be more satisfied."

"Job was done well. Second time I've hired Lux Roofing - excellent both times. Highly recommend."

If we ever need a touch up or small repair they are always responding to our call, in top of all that their prices are competitive. They walked us throw the process of installation and we do we expect to complete and when the job is going to fully finished. Their staff is extremely professionals and they clean and organize the area everyday before they leave. The manager will call during the installation to see how happy we are. Also I had the manager came to my house to inspect the work after the job is done and make sure we are happy with the job."

It went as smooth as possible with a Master Craftsman who had challenges due to our home being built in the 1930's.  Narciso and Eddie worked tirelessly for four days to complete all this work.  This man is a Michelangelo of home repair / remodeling. 

FRONT STONE STAIRS:  He started with a stone or concrete stairs in the front of the home that was sinking.  We thought he would have to replace them, but after they pulled the stairs out they found an unknown animal had started to created tunnels under our stairs.  They were very heavy concrete steps, so they started to sink.  It began to make us wonder if we were sitting on a potential sinkhole.  They dug out the tunnel under the stairs filing it with dirt,  a thick concrete base, replaced the stairs, and painted them to match the porch decking.  The we asked him to create a railing capable of supporting family members and friends who tip the scales over 300 lbs.  The railings are so strong that it is very easy to go up and down the stairs. This is very important for those who have family of advancing age.  That was an amazing creation that came right out of Narciso's ability to think outside the box.   This job was not only difficult, but the job done was so amazingly it is hard to communicate how inventive he was to deal with this old house. 

PRIVACY WALL: We decided to see if he could enclose part of our front porch because our neighbor had built a deck to barbeque on their front deck which looked into our front door into the living room.  Not only did he match the very old siding, but painted it and used better lattice to match the house and porch. 

KITCHEN: Our kitchen ceiling has had sheetrock damage for over a decade following A/C overflow pans leaking onto the ceiling and window frame.  Narciso and Eddie repaired all the sheetrock and floated and painted it in one day.  That seems not possible, but it was done with care and to perfection. 

DECK: We had a deck built about 5-6 years ago by one of many guys in a truck who claim to be carpenters/plumbers/etc..  They always offer a deal and even the big companies are often not much better. Those coupons are no deal.  This really makes one think twice about who is doing our work and what quality we are getting. Initially when the deck was installed, to the untrained eye it appeared to be solid.  Something always bugged me when I would look in other parts of town at their decks, but I could not seem to put a finger on it.  We were so happy to have it I guess we ignored what we perceived to be aesthetics and turned out to be unsafe.  The deck turned out to be so poorly constructed that one entire railing, the longest and highest one,  was about to fall off creating a dangerous situation. 

Narciso told me the spacers need to be added. He recommended adding two more between the existing ones.  What a huge difference.  I often wondered if they had enough of those spacers because one day one of our small dogs, (a dearly departed Jack Russell Terrier rescue dog about 20lbs.),  jumped from the first landing after seeing a squirrel.  We thought we lost her, but dogs are fortunately sturdy when small and she suffered no ill effects.  We leashed her from then on.  In addition, Narciso added support beams on every structural beam to make this deck extremely solid.  Then they painted it matching it perfectly.  Now I really feel like we have the deck we always dreamed of that is as safe as one can possibly make it.  It is simple, the original work they claimed to be so solid it would not come down, but I guess they meant just the large posts that I had to insist on using treated 8x8's or some size close, but not 4x6's as considered.  The rest of the deck was not done properly and the problems were simply shoddy work.  Rosales company not only reinforced all sides of the deck and stairs going up, but added a ton of wood to make it so sturdy is does not even move when your try to push the railings on the stair going up.  That took a day and a half but was done so professionally I could not believe the difference.   Again, amazing work.

Shed Turbines:  We had the same guys build our shed that built the deck and it had zero air flow.  Narciso and I agreed some roof turbines would move the air enough to prevent mold.  He use very big ones to take care of a small shed, but it did the trick perfectly.

BATHTUB:  Our bathtub was leaking and Narciso removed and replaced all the seals in the tub fixtures so we do not have future problems.  I doubt I will ever call a plumber or carpenter out again.  I would call Narciso because he can do it all.

LAST YEAR:  I did not realize my wife had left feedback on the bathroom project last year.  The garage doors and repairing a cinder block window frame that was broken apart since before we lived in this house.  I did not know how one would repair such damage and it was so easy for him. Our old garage doors I built years ago using plywood.  Who knew it would become very heavy and tear the rails down from the beams.  The new garage doors are wonderful.

 

GENERAL STATEMENT:  We live in an old neighborhood where the homes are on pier and beams.  It is difficult to invest a ton of money in a home that is not worth repairing versus rebuilding the house.  Old neighborhoods like ours have elderly folks and a lot of young folks that are in their first house that is affordable.  We love our home as do all our neighbors, but sometimes the cost to repair it using the big companies who advertise a lot are just too costly.  This is a great man that created a business that relies on "word of mouth" and "feedback" for future business. I also use that same small business model as it demands your best work consistently.

Word of mouth referrals and positive feedback trumps any amount of advertising.  Narciso does his work such that he can sign it and it will be there for decades to come.  He and Eddie are true professionals. You get more than your moneys worth.  The difficult thing is to leave this kind of feedback because when you find someone like Narciso, you do not want to share him, but that would be unkind.   We have had Rosales come out three times with excellent results.  Anyone that leaves less than A+ reviews is not valuing this mans ability to do anything you need.  In my view that is invaluable.   

Your first contact with Rosales is with Rosa.  She is the jewel that makes this business tick.  She is very kind, easy to work with and great follow through.  A family business is as close as it comes.

"I really wanted to provide a good review to these guys if only for the repeated effort they put in trying to get it right. Once the owner started to blame me and my house for the struggles they had, I decided I needed to write an honest review. So I have a house that was built around 2000 and it has rolled on texture and stamped ceiling texture that is applied using spackling compound. This is very common in this area and prior painters have had no problem matching it. In this case the crew admitted to me they were not professional painters, they did not to keep the area neat (drips on carpet, stain on pool cool deck (photo), stain on garage wall (photo), muddy boot prints on stair carpeting (see photo), etc,), they could not create a straight line in corners where two paint colors merge (see white/blue paint photo), and did not know how to texture. The wall texture had to be done over three times - that is literal. I showed them how to do it. They eventually got that fairly well figured out. The ceiling was another story - the area that had a sheet rock repair was retextured 5 times over three visits (see white ceiling / gray wall paint photos). At first it was totally terrible and I had to tell them what ceiling texture stamping tool to buy from Home Depot (pretty much the main one they sell). One painter told me he watched utube to try and figure out how to use that tool but did not have any experience with texture. He was not satisfied with his own work, to his credit. Finally the owner came and redid it. I was dismayed to find how rough it looks. I have hired someone to re do it. I can not recommend this company. If you do hire them, don't pay up front like I did."
