"Excellent professional work and managed to use existing structures to cut costs. Carpentry work was master level and cleaned up very well and communication was first rate. In general lumber costs are high but the finished deck they did for my back deck is well worth the investment and will be enjoyed for years to come!"

"We had our chimney tuck pointed and a roof put on the house. The old roof wasn’t torn down this it wasn’t in real bad shape and there was only one layer on. The work was all done in one day and everything was cleaned up when they left."

"Zach and his crew were awesome. They designed closet space that perfectly fit my needs and the installation was quick and easy. Very cost effective as well - I got several quotes and they were by far the most competitive. They understood the requirements of the condo association and made it a super easy process. 100% will use them again."

"My deck was transformed in 7 hours. Vax literally built a new deck on the original foundation and it us fabulous. Originally, I just wanted a few planks replaced, power-washed, awater-sealed, and painted. After examining the deck, it was best to replace all planks, reinforce the frame, and install all new wood at a resonable price. It is so beautiful I can hardly believe it!! Look at the before and after pics and see for yourself!!"

"I had some issues with the front entry door sticking and scraping against the frame, misalignment with the door strike, and needing some new hardware. Marc assessed the door and provided his suggestions with transparency. After assessment, he proceeded to reinforce the door hinges, replace the strike plate, sand down the bottom frame and also replaced a faulty lockset. Extremely efficient high quality work now has my door moving freely and reinforced as intended at an extremely fair price. I will certainly be calling Marc for any of my future home repair needs."

"I was happy to find a local company who could replace the ropes in 2 of my windows. They also replaced a broken pane in one of my "French doors". They'll come later this year for 3 other things I need done -- replacing 2 basement windows and a screen door."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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. 

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

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.

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.
