"Craig Maschino and his crew were very professional. They did a great job on our deck. I told him why I wanted and he submitted a plan that was exactly what we wanted. I would recommend this company for anyone wanting a deck built. They cleaned up the work site and there was not a scrap left. Can't say enough about them. A+++"

"The crew was the most informative respectful group I have met. They actually wanted to work and listened to what I wanted. I would highly recommend this company. After the bathroom remodel they even stuck around to lay a new kitchen floor that wasnâ  t in the plan."

"I actually had Kaitie build some custom made wall inserts from recycled pallet wood for a special project, her customer service skills were excellent, she kept me informed the whole way, and the job was finished on time. Furthermore, she color stained them on short notice. I would definitely recommend Kaitie!"

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.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing.
