"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!"

"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!"

"Oscar was great to work with. Dependable, very pleasant, good communication. Unfortunately, Wayfair sent us the wrong boxes for the furniture and no instructions so I decided to postpone this project until I had time to deal with it."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

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.

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.
