Customers say: Quality work

"This was a major project, involving a great deal of excavating, block-work, building a 2 car garage with a master bedroom and en suite above. Given the scope of the work this was a lengthy project and involved a lot of different subcontract work but Phelps and Sons made sure this work was done correctly and to our satisfaction. You can count on this crew to take your concerns seriously and they will make sure you are happy with the job.
Further more they stand behind their work and after being paid and the job done we had a minor concern over a door adjustment and they came out and took care of it right away. The value that this crew brings is really in the many years experience and taking the time to make sure the job is done right and you are satisfied.

"The contractor came out and gave us a $800 estimate to replace all places where he found wood rot. I told him I only wanted the small area "repaired" I did not want everything replaced! He told me he would not repair the wood."

"Centennial Construction in Carmel recently completed a Masterbath and bedroom project for me. This is the third remodel project they have done on my home and as with all of the others, I could not be more pleased. They exhibit great professionalism, friendliness, and expertise in the work they do and the contractors they use do excellent work. They stand by their quality. The communication throughout the process is very good and they are very responsive to any questions or concerns. I highly recommend Brent Ash and his team at Centennial for any remodel you may be considering."

"Our family highly recommends R. Wright Construction and Remodeling. We found the company on HomeAdvisor. We submitted a request for both interior and exterior work on our house, including wood rot, new trim work, lighting, and roof work. Mr. Wright responded to our request within 24 hours, and came out shortly after to do a walk through. We received a very agreeable quote a few days later and scheduled his company to do the work. The workers were efficient, professional, and highly skilled. We absolutely love the end results!Mr. Wright is a very professional and knowledgeable contractor. He is passionate about his work and cares about doing the job right. We put our trust in his advice and were extremely satisfied with the results. You can put your confidence in him because he stands behind his work!Our family has moved a few times over the last few years. We found it very difficult to find a competent, dedicated, and trustworthy contractor. We will look no further. We look forward to working with him on our future projects. You can't go wrong with R. Wright."

"We hired Myles for a remodel of our bathroom and mud room. His attention to detail was phenomenal and both rooms turned out terrific. The finished product was even more beautiful than we could have imagined. The projects in our 120 year old house had their fair share of challenges, but it was no problem for Myles. He showed up on time every day and worked on our projects until they were completed. We could not be happier and would highly recommend him for any of your home improvement needs."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.
