"Fabiano and Will went over and beyond on this project. Hiring a carpenter you have never worked with before involves a certain degree of faith. That's what I did when hiring Fabiano Construction to build a triple-tiered flower bed on my rooftop with a trellis on my Philadelphia row-home rooftop. I was not disappointed. Fabiano and Will are a great team, they are very kind and they do great work. What more could you ask for? I am having both of them come back to rebuild my grill countertop and cabinetry! I have no regrets using Fabiano Construction and I will continue to use them in the future!"

"Evans Contracting contacted me through my search for someone to repair, clean and paint my deck. I spoke with Charles and was given a quick and very reasonable quote for the work. I agreed to the quote and the work was started within two days. Charles kept me informed of the progress of the work and it was completed in two days. The overall work was excellent and I was very happy with the results. I would highly recommend Ed Evans contacting and plan to use them for some future work. Thank you for a job well done 👍"

"They did a great job. Chris was able to hang the dining room botanical print wall paper quickly, neatly and efficiently. The striped wallpaper I selected for the bathroom turned out to be a bad choice on my part as the walls are all crooked in the bathroom. Chris had to spend a lot of time trying to get it straight."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.
