"Fine workmanship, great report with the customer, making the home more secure by installing a door knocker with the view finder in it to see who is at the door. The railing that Austin put in is very secure and has eliminated a safety problem going up and down the stairs. The work that was involved was also staining the banister to match the other banister that has been on the stairs since the beginning. Great job matching the products he used."

"They did a good job. I was just hoping it would stop my wood floors from creaking but they are worse. Overall believe the work done will be good for the house support though"

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Marquina Painting LLC for a complete roofing project, and I couldn?t be happier with the results. From the initial estimate to the final cleanup, the entire crew was professional, punctual and highly skilled. The crew paid closed attention to detail, complete the project on schedule and left the property spotless when they finished. I highly recommend Marquina Painting LLC."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic.
