"Right on time. Cleaned up all materials inside and outside the house.  Put down protective cloth in the house to protect the floor and catch removal of old window debris...The guys did a very professional job, were very polite and courteous - and my wife and I would recommend them to anyone!  Sergie (the owner) met with us prior - gave us a very fair price, and his workers, Alex and another gentleman (sorry can't remember his name :-(   did a superb job and craftsmanship.
We have had other "contractors" and "builders" work on our 100+ years old house in the past 2 years and these guys were in a group of their own compared to the others, I mean really, no bull.   A+ to Alliance!  And, Thank You.  Sam & Leslie

"I am delighted with all the projects we did with Girls ‘N Tools! We were selling an older home that needed painting in and out, joist repair, replaced outdoor lighting, regrouted tub etc. in the new home (condo) Girls ‘N Tools put in crown molding, painted the interior, replaced lights fixtures. They show up on time, do quality work, clean up, have great ideas and creative problem solving skills. Jessica Gervais is professional, smart, experienced and truly enjoys her work. She is the model ALL contractors should follow!"

"Dave Harris was quick to schedule to an estimate and arrived on time. He provided some helpful insight during the estimate and ended up pricing the job significantly lower than the other contractors I had come out. After hiring Dave to rebuild the deck, his crew showed up on time and were professional. The deck was completed on time and came out great. I was so impressed I hired Dave to do some other work on my property.

"I hired Caring Contractors to power wash my parents house in Killingworth. The siding was covered in algae, and filth. Caring contractors came when they said they would, did the job as they said they would, and the house looks great now. I’ll hire them again if it needs it again in the future for sure."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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.

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.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.
