Inside he executed an interior remodel which involved painting five rooms and totally remodeling a bathroom including tile and marble. Would not want anyone else to touch my house"

"Vertex has completed more than one project for me but I especially want to mention the amazing job they did replacing the siding on my home. The whole process was smooth, communication was great and they kept everything clean from start to finish. I’m very happy with the results and would definitely recommend them!"

"We found Mark on-line; he responded quickly. We feared we were confronting a large expense because our bathroom floors were sagging under our toilets (in two adjoining bathrooms). Mark determined our problems were not with our underflooring, and his estimate was quite reasonable. He and his team did the repairs faster than we anticipated and within the estimate, They were most pleasant throughout, the work is excellent, our (bathroom) problems are resolved. Highly recommended."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.
