"We spent 3 months trying to find the right contractor to tear down and rebuild our deck. We hire Brian ONeill after receiving a bid and discussing the project with him. He listened to what we wanted and worked with us to come up with the correct deck configuration that we wanted. He is a true craftsman and exceptionally easy to work with. We couldn't be happened with the finished product and that he did everything he said he would do and was a complete pro before, during, and after. Thank you Brian!"

"The job included prepping and painting my 1400 sq ft home and picket fence. It also included demo-ing the old window boxes that were structurally built into the walls, and custom-building new ones. In addition, a garden shed that had been built onto the back of my home was also demolished. Ivan was great to work with - very collaborative and responsive and has a good eye for esthetics. The work was exceptionally high quality. The team shows up early and works hard. It was also super-convenient that Ivan is licensed in carpentry as I didn't have to deal with custom window-boxes as a separate project. Last note is that as a single woman, it is important to me to feel comfortable with the people around my home. Ivan's team, including his wife who is often onsite, are so friendly and always respectful. They will be my go-to for all future projects."

"Unbelievable turnaround time on our new multi-level deck. Bayside Builders Group gave us a realistic timeline and actually beat it by two days. The framing underneath is beefy and engineered perfectly to handle our heavy hot tub. Communication was awesome from start to finish, no guesswork or waiting around for answers!"

"They designed and built my new home. At the beginning the process was a little rough but soon after a conversation with the owner the whole building process was top notch! Extremely impressed by the great quality of work and very professional people."

"They did a good job of gutter cleaning and deck washing on a 16-suite medical office building, and Rolando was very informative about what the crew was doing and why. He quoted me the added cost to install stainless-steel gutter guard screens, which I had them do while on the job. These screens are a bit pricey, but it seems to be a good quality product and they did excellent work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

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.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
