"I contacted Raven less about 2 days prior to having the work performed. Raven did not only respond immediately, and came to do an estimate next day, he had the best price and was able to do the work immediately. Raven explained in detail what he was going to do and why and I am very happy with the deck renovation. Will definitely hire again and recommend him to all friends and family members."

"We could not be more pleased with Erickson Contruction Services. They did a master bath remodel for us. We have used other contractors for remodel work on our home, but ECS is the best. We will use them again for a few projects we plan to do. Professional, punctual, reasonably priced, and very easy to work with. A+"

"Professional crew of two, very punctual and professional.  Quality of work was OK, but not great by any means.  I would say they could have done a better job with more time, but given the pre-paid service package was for a painter for a day, there wasn't much they could accomplish with great quality when they needed to wait for spackling paste to dry before painting  (8 man-hours with a crew of two, only gives you 4 hours).  I would advise anyone looking to pre-purchase a time-based service like this to reconsider the work they are paying for, it's a better scenario for both the contractor and the buyer to pay based on a project, which would lead to better reviews and a higher quality level of the work performed.  Time-based service promotions like these either wind up costing you more than you expected due to the additional time required to complete the work you think you are getting completed, or you suffer from lack of quality trying to squeeze as much work into the time allotted.  Either way, it's not a benefit unless you manage the project well from the start.

"I am extremely pleased with the quality of work, professionalism and follow-up demonstrated by the owner (Charles Green) and his team. We have used G&G several times over the years, although this was the first really big job we had. Mr. Green helped with difficult questions and issues I had initially getting the fair market value from my insurance company. Also G&G recommended sub-contractors to do our tile and plumbing work which did a great job as well. I will definitely use G&G again and would highly recommend this company."

Matches exactly to other flooring in the foyer, and kitchen. New Image Flooring is my preferred contractor."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

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.

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.

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. 

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.
