"Absolutely beautiful rebuild of my lower deck that perfectly matches the design of the upper deck. Their attention to detail really shows, and it’s clear they take pride in their work. The project was completed quickly, and they even did a thorough cleanup afterward. I’ll definitely be hiring them again for future projects. I highly recommend them, you won’t regret it!"

"Great work power washing, staining, and leveling our large deck. Melvin came out to give us a decent estimate. Workers worked for 2 days straight on the project and were pleasant and professional. Customer service kept up to date on the project and was also very pleasant and professional. I now have a beautiful deck. Would hire again without a doubt!"

"Good experience. Phil was great. Very thorough and was able to schedule us in where it worked best for us. We are very grateful for that. Only thing was that when they came out to do the work, they stuck to the work order to the T even though upon removing some rotten wood, we saw that we may need additional work behind it to properly complete the repair we needed done. I would have appreciated being made aware of that and consulted before just going ahead and putting fresh wood over a hidden problem. I was only notified about this because another handyman at the house sent me a picture of it. Also, there was debris left in the gutter from the roof work and I had to ask them to check and clean it out. Our downspouts go underground and that could have been a big issue down the line if I hadn't caught that as well. For the price, they were good. But maybe don't walk away for the day."

"Elvin is great. He fixed my wood double front doors and applied paint that I had picked out, as well as new handles/lock. He took his time, was very polite, and made sure everything was in order before in left. My front doors look amazing. Will be hiring him again for more work around the house. Also, his pricing was very reasonable and on point for the amount of repair and painting work he did."

"My wife and I have an architect-designed Trelleborg house, which we had built in 1991 with components imported from Denmark, Sweden and Germany. The roof is Danish concrete tile, and after the severe storm in late August damaged our roof and one skylight, we used Home Advisor to locate a contractor who could handle the repairs, and were fortunate to have All Brothers contact us. We are still working with Jani and Chucki to finalize the details of the project, and Phil performed a temporary repair that gives us time to acquire the necessary components. Thus far we are extremely pleased with their skills and the way they do business. After looking for years for a company that can work competently on a European tile roof, we have finally found a group of traditionally-trained craftsmen who are knowledgeable, responsible and articulate. I am confident that All Brothers will maintain the integrity of our house, which was designed to be energy-efficient and built with non-VOC components, and trust them completely. In addition to their building skills, it's notable that you can always get in contact with them: their receptionist is unfailingly polite and helpful, and if you give them a call anytime someone will either answer the phone immediately or else get back to you in minutes. I recommend All Brothers in the highest possible terms."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.
