"I am extremely pleased with the repair of my 45-year old deck and steep wooden staircase from Ted Brown, the Deck Doctor. Ted was quickly responsive in getting me a reasonable work estimate. He began the work quickly, replacing damaged wood while maintaining original deck to keep my costs down where feasible. He was honest, personable and helpfully communicative. He and his assistant worked quickly and provided a thorough clean up each day. I highly recommend him."

"We employed this company to tear down the original builders decking and replace it with composite decking and redesigned stairs.The workmanship was excellent. We subsequently had them build a storage shed underneath the deck. Cost estimates, planning & execution were very professional. The owner of the company is very willing to discuss alternatives to achieve an optimal outcome. The team are hard working and pay close attention to detail. We are very satisfied with the outcome."

"Josh Babcock did excellent work. He communicated well with me, was very easy to work with,and was quite thorough. I had a big shed and he found out it was too bad to repair so we decided to take it and all the huge shrubs around it totally down and he built a new one to my liking . He also did well on several small indoor projects. I would definitely hire him again. And each day- he always cleaned up the construction messes! That’s not something some construction people do."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

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.
