"Lano and his crew were human angels - fantastic job on the yards and he even sent us two crew members with late notice on our part the next day to carry out the larger furniture! They work quickly and efficiently and the price was very fair! Love these guys and will recommend them to everyone I know!!"

"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!"

"Josh built us a beautiful coffee table. I shared photos of what I wanted and then we talked about what I was envisioning. He talked me through wood choices and stains. Throughout the build he kept me informed of the progress and asked for confirmation on the stain choices and responded professionally when I changed my stain choice at the last minute. Josh was great to work with. He communicated periodically through the various stages. He built and delivered the table ahead of his initial estimate. I would highly recommend him."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.
