"This is 100% our recommendation without them asking or paying for it. Tim, Crystal and their team did a FANTASTIC job on a very tough privacy fence project with a very particular customer (me). This was a 20' long fence that had a lot of horizontal lines, modern sizing and gape, and plenty of things that could have gone wrong. I found them to be very professional, reliable, accountable and really, really, really accurate. I interviewed a lot of people for our project and they were the most consistent. I showed up unannounced to one of their jobs, measured, checked posts for level, and talked with the homeowner/customer directly. Their experience was my experience, which is to give them a shot. They delivered this job start to finish in 3 days on-site. Couldn't believe it. They did a bunch of pre-work at their house over the weekend to ensure our downtime was limited. They can provide you access to see our project, which is absolutely beautiful. If I can figur eout how to upload pictures, I'll do it. Also- Tim has a background in garage doors and knows what is he doing there as well. Do it. We are very pleased with the outcome."

"Cesar and his guys were punctual and professional. They did a great job working with us on the design and build of our patio cover project which turned out exactly how we expected. We have already CMR to friends and neighbors and would use him again. CMR's price was extremely reasonable and much cheaper than other quotes we got. His cheaper price did not reflect with lesser quality craftsmanship. We are very pleased with his work and have received many compliments from our friends and neighbors."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

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.

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.
