"We made the right choice with "Make A Choice Home Exteriors". We have a 1940s Craftsman Bungalow that needed extensive exterior renovations with the siding, windows, doors, and several other repairs completed. After going through several contractors we decided there was one more to check out with 5 stars and great reviews called Make A Choice Home Exteriors and then we'll choose, so my husband said call them to request for a estimate. Assistant Project Manager Manuel came out to perform the estimate whom was very professional, friendly and attentive to what was important to us in completing this project. I called my husband and told him about the experience with Manuel, so we decided to choose Make A Choice as our contractor. As the project moved forward the team (Manuel, Fabian, Ivan, Domingo "Sunday", ALL the contractors as well as the Owners ) didn't disappoint and showed us it was about our vision what we wanted and needed; they worked diligently, passionately and went above and beyond to ensure we were completely satisfied with every detail. Pictures prove that "Make A Choice Home Exteriors" was the right choice. Thank you for your services!"

"I called just to have my 10 shutters painted. Alex answered and said he would be over in less than an hour to give me an estimate. He arrived within that time frame. He gave me a quote, which we agreed on, and said he could start immediately. He finished the job and then asked if I would like him to paint the front door. We agreed on a price, and he painted the door. The work was quick and professional. The front of my house now has a clean, fresh look to it. He cleaned up afterward and and he passed his business card to me. I would highly recommend Alex or A&S painting services to any home owner for painting jobs, large and small. A&S also does other work such as large painting jobs, power washing, carpentry, etc."

"We had a couple of sections of old siding that needed to be replaced. Chuck quickly came out and gave an estimate of the work. The crew started within a few days and the project was finished without a hitch. Our new siding and paint looks fantastic. All work areas were cleaned and left as they were found. Chuck and the crews that performed the work were very professional and friendly. We will be using Make a Choice for future projects as well."

Customers say: Quality work

"I was very pleased with my experience with Matt from 3D decks. The price was reasonable and all my my questions before and during the build process were answered. During the building process of the deck I was very pleased. Matt paid attention to details and offered suggestion on how to improve the deck design. His work was detailed and meticulous. The work site was left cleaner than it was before the work. I would highly recommend Matt, he is kind, conscientious and his craftsmanship was excellent. I was also impressed that Matt, the owner, actually builds the deck and is on site."

"We had our deck completely rebuilt. Lance and his crew are outstanding. They showed up on time everyday and only worked our project until completed, which was on time and with quality workmanship. Lance delivered all he promised and more without hesitation. Extremely pleased!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.
