Whilst I don't have strong objections to either of those activities, variety is the spice of life right? Lesser known is the saying, "Standing in front of a 2000 degree forge is also in fact the spice of life." But I assure you, that's one spicy tamale. Located off of Parklawn Dr., White Flint Creations hosts small Blacksmithing workshops in a converted industrial garage bay. The night I went, I was one of eight amateur Smiths who learned how to harness the almighty power of the forge, anvil, and hammer. The appreciation of the Smiths surely runs deep now. "Take me out [to White Flint Creations] tonight" #Anyone? During the class period of around two and a half hours, Smithing expert Drew led our guild in making bottle openers out of thin square rods and rebar. We had a choice of using either canvas with Drew explaining that rebar would be a bit more difficult to shape, and me expeditiously grabbing a square rod to start my journey. Drew was an expert teacher. Both guiding us when he saw us faltering or requesting aid, but giving us a serious amount of autonomy to learn and grow. I had such a fantastic time during the course. Safety was observed, emphasized, and overseen. You might be asking yourself, what is the going rate of a night of blacksmithing at your local forge? Quite surprisingly, I only ended up paying $40 dollars for the class. So it was both unique, affordable, and quite fun. Caveat: the cost does depend on the size of the class so prices may vary. I can't wait to take my next blacksmithing course most honestly. It was challenging, fun, rewarding, and relaxing all at once. Drew plays music while you're all working on your project, and the garage doors are open to allow the massive heat created by the furnaces to escape - so it's quite a perfect little activity on a nice night.

Fernando from BBC Construction is - by far - the best contractor I have ever worked with in the 12…read moreyears I've lived in DC. This company is honestly the only one that hasn't let me down. All the work they've done has exceeded my expectations. Fernando is very knowledgeable, punctual, friendly, and respectful, and sets realistic expectations about the timeline of each project and what it will entail. As a young woman, I have had many negative experiences with other sexist contractors who assume that I lack enough knowledge in their field (electrical, plumbing, etc.) or that I have no common sense, and so they try to scam me or get away with poor quality work. It has been the opposite with Fernando. He takes the time to patiently and kindly answer every single one of my many questions, and explains things to me as many times as I need him to, always treating me like an equal. I have an old house, built in 1921, and in the decades before I owned it, it went through renovations that were not done well. This has meant that now every serious project in the house must be done carefully to ensure that it remains structurally sound and safe both in the short and long term. I only trust Fernando to do any work in the house at this point, because I regretted every other time I hired someone else. I appreciate so much that he always thinks about how to make the result even better than I asked for, and without me asking, cares enough to use his knowledge to come up with ways to make the best of this house that I love despite its limitations (e.g. building recessed shelves to maximize limited space). His prices are shockingly fair and he gives detailed invoices outlining his projected labor costs. If anything unforeseen comes up that might lead to increased costs, he immediately addresses it with you to discuss options and ensure you are comfortable with the outcome. His team cleans up after themselves and you can see that he treats his workers with respect. The projects he'd done for me include (but are not limited to): -Fixing a collapsed wall in the crawl space of my basement (it was so bad, you could see the roots of a tree from inside the house) and ensuring water could no longer leak into the house - Removing an old retaining wall and building a stunning brand new one - Replacing old floors with ceramic and vinyl ones - Building and painting a fence - Building a concrete walkway in my yard and fixing an old one - Fixing the flow of rainwater in my yard to protect the house from water damage - As well as less complex tasks like painting my interior walls And now, he is currently finishing my basement which is a very complex project given the limitations of the house, but I know it'll exceed my expectations as before. I am so thankful that Fernando and his team were recommended to me years ago and now I will continue to recommend him to everyone I know in the DMV.

Honest, Reliable, and Quality Work!…read more I am very impressed with Fernando and his team. I was in need of replacing a vanity sink in one of my bathrooms and some roofing handyman services. I had been putting off the work for months and even considered doing it myself because the estimates that I received from other contractors were ridiculously high and super-inflated. Also, the other contracting companies either seemed disinterested in smaller jobs, not trustworthy, or left me with reservations and not a good feeling overall in having them do the work. In comes BBC Construction/Remodeling LLC. From the point of my initial meeting with the owner Fernando to the actual completion of the job, I am thoroughly satisfied with my decision in hiring this company. Fernando was very professional and his team did a great job on the work I requested. He was able to assess the work needed accurately and offered up great advice/recommendations on the work to be completed. In addition, he exuded two of the top qualities I look for in a contractor: 1) Patience -- Not once did I feel rushed with my initial appointment. He listened attentively, was not pushy and seemed eager to help. Nor, did I feel like Fernando was annoyed by my slue of questions. And, believe me there were many.....He patiently listened and answered every question. 2) Attention to Detail -- Fernando did a great job at assessing the work needed to be done and provided a fair estimate of the cost. Antonio was the crew member assigned to the work I requested. This guy was top notch. He performed an exceptional job on completing new plumbing and installing a new vanity sink in my home. He had great attention to detail and cleaned up the site afterwards. He also was the guy that handled the roofing work I requested as well and even completed a few things that were not a part of the scope of work! He could have ignored it or charged me extra, but he didn't! This is when you know you have found a quality, first rate company that takes pride in what they do. I would recommend BBC Construction/Remodeling LLC; without reservation. They are dependable, trust worthy and do great work. The entire experience made me feel as though customer satisfaction is a high priority. I have a few more projects around the house and I definitely will be reaching out to Fernando and his team for their services.

I was not disappointed. Rick came out to give an estimate shortly after we spoke. I had my mind set on Trex and Rick did not try to up sell me on any upgrades or more expensive decking material. His estimate was $1,000 below my lowest estimate and $3,000 below my highest bid. Weeks later, as soon as the decking material arrived I had a brand new environmentally friendly deck. The job took about 1 1/2 days (while I was at work) and I am very happy. The deck looks great! It is such an improvement. No more splinters! The work was top notch and the company was very professional. In fact, two of my neighbors had their kitchens remodeled by Rock Creek Carpentry and the pictures look great. I highly recommend them for your remodeling needs.
