"Brian raised our deck and repaired the stairs 2 years ago due to setting issues. The past 2 days he replaced rotted post, repaired railings and rebuilt the landing at the top of the stairs. Very professional and outstanding quality of work. I highly recommend Brian for any repairs"

"The estimate for the cost of the project was accurate. The demolition phase was quick and the clean up was thorough. The project was completed early and the workmanship was excellent. I would definitely use this pro again and can give him my highest recommendation!"

"Amazing work! He was quick to come give an estimate and didn’t make us wait around as other companies did. He gave a reasonable price and with the quality of his work I personally think he could go a bit higher as he works fast and very well. He was respectful of my kids, pets and landscape. He also used real cement for post foundation and not the foam others mentioned in quotes. We will definitely use him when we repair the other side of the fence at our home."

"Mr Rocha is very conscientious about his work and gives good advice about what the job will cost, at the same time helping save money wherever he can. Very personal and easy to work with. I felt his costs for repairing and sealing my deck were very reasonable for what I needed done. I was very satisfied with his work. I would hire again if I need repairs."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

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.

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. 

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.
