"I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dontate Construction Company from the beginning to end Mr. Dontate and his crew displayed excellent performance, dedication and professionalism, his leadership style was outstanding! Maya Angelou quoted “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” This is why my husband and I strongly recommend this the Dontate Construction Company. Mr. Dontate this is how you made us feel, thank you so much for your big beautiful smile (always) and for crew. I also wanted to thank Angi list for recommending this awesome amazing company, from beginning to end, we’re pleased. The project team was very enthusiastic and very upbeat."

"No matter what problem you have, Clint is the man for the job! He not only fixed the plumbing issues I discovered during a remodel but was able to fix the electrical issues, flooring problems, install the cabinets, cut and grout backsplash tile, and fix a handful of minor issues that came up along the way. Clint is on time, dependable, courteous and respectful of your property - he even cleans up afterwards! I could not have completed this project without Clint Hatcher and highly recommend him to anyone who needs work done - you will not be disappointed!!"

"OnCenter Contracting went beyond expectations! Both of the men were excellent with every part of the entire process of building a new deck for us. The communication could not have been better. The artisanship was impressive. The work ethics were at the highest level possible. The site was cleaned each day prior to their leaving. Even the St. Charles County Inspectors were impressed with the craftsmanship and attention to details. We are extremely happy with the finished project!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project.
