"Overall I was pleased with the completed project (installation of wheelchair lift). Frank was professional and answered all my questions. I had obtained multiple estimates and Slip-Proof was comparable as well as economical in reference to many."

"After a major disappointment recently with a painting contractor, Art of Siding has restored my faith in humankind. No gimmicks, no gauging. and prompt service. Art repaired the dryer vent and put a cage over the opening to prevent birds from nesting. Oh and did I mention, he did it in the drizzling rain with pending thunderstorms, and the cost was 1/4 of a previous quote. Great to see there are still a few honest people on the planet."

"Marcia was our designer, and she was wonderful to work with! Professional from the start, flexible, and always receptive and responsive. The installers were great as well, always arriving within the designated window. They were also professional and friendly! We can't wait to do our pantry and nursery closet! We will definitely be using Closet OS again! Thank you for transforming our rooms and giving us great storage space!"

Customers say: Quick response

"We initially hired Darren to replace a Formica countertop in our kitchen. Work was performed on time and on budget. Darren respected our privacy, cleaned up after each day, and demonstrated a high quality attitude and approach to the work. Based on the initial work, we asked Darren to make some small repairs, which led to repair or a skylight leak, which led to painting , which led you to multiple rooms of painting, which led to the installation of a new gas cooktop, which led to some electrical lighting replacement. Darren demonstrated great skill diversity / plumbing, electrical, mechanical, painting, exterior repairs, and carpentry. The convenience of having someone to address various tasks that would have been a challenge for DIY was of tremendous value to us. Darren also demonstrated flexibility in work hours, and came back on a weekend to finish a critical activity to support our needs. We would readily call Darren again to help us on other tasks bs DIY."

"Mitch and Spencer handled my tuck pointing job, which started out small but turned out to be large, professionally. They knew what the problem was with water infiltration and how to treat it. Their tuck-pointer did really great work on the stone and brick and rebuilding my rear stairs and he left the place spotless. I will definitely re-hire them for projects I have coming up."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.
