"JC did a great job. He built a platform for my garage so I could put my jetski under , allowing me to store on top of it. He was on time to give an estimate and completed the job on time. It looks great!"

"I recently had the pleasure of hiring PurePower Wash and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. From the moment I contacted them for a quote, the customer service was top notch. They were friendly, professional and responsive, answering all my questions. On the scheduled day, the technicians arrived on time, equipped with the latest state of the art power wash equipment. Throughout the process, I was impressed with their attention to detail and their commitment to delivering the best results. I also appreciated the safety measures. They made sure all windows, outdoor furniture and plants were protected during the power wash. Not only did they do an outstanding job, they also finished within the estimated time, which was impressive given the size of the job. I highly recommend PurePower Wash for anyone in need of reliable and high quality power wash services. They exceeded my expectations and I will definitely be using their services in the future. Five stars all the way!"

"Miguel was a consummate professional who saved our roof right before a rain storm. He came out at night to beat the storm and quickly and expertly patched three holes. He was very thorough and his price could not be beat! HIRE THIS MAN! You won't be sorry! Thank you Miguel and Aguilera Construction!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

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.

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.
