"Brindley was incredible! I'm not sure I have ever seen anyone as industrious and thorough. He stayed true to his estimate. He prepped the deck, replaced the weather damaged planks and spindles. Everything was done in a timely manner. I could not be more pleased. Photos available."

"Dan is a good contractor and through. There were learning curves for both Dan and we the homeowners with Monroe County building codes. Dan listen to the inspector and corrected things to ensure they were within code and paid particular attention to the details. With this being covid environment throughout the world it was an impact to the project and caused a bit of delay. We were very satisfied with Dan's work the room turned out excellent,"

"They were excellent. My vinyl plank flooring is beautiful and my baseboards and doors are great. Trey and Nina went a step above and cleaned after they were finished. I highly recommend them!"

"Brandon is the owner and he met with my wife and did an excellent job of picking out wonderful bright and vibrant colors for all of the rooms to be painted. 2 days later he sent a "crew" over to the house to do the actual painting. The crew did a very poor job of neatness by splattering paint over many edges of baseboard, ceiling, outlets, and even the floor. We had to call them back the next day for some clean-up and a second coat in 3 rooms. They failed to remove some items from the walls prior to painting and failed to protect some items from getting paint on them. We were not about to call them back a 3rd time , so we ended up doing some clean up and touch up ourselves. Perhaps if Brandon had been more proactive in the actual painting or supervised the crew more diligently we may have enjoyed a more favorable experience. At any rate we felt that for the price we paid we deserved a much more professional job!

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.
