"Deck Renewal Systems delivered a beautiful, quality deck for our home! We are pleased with the outcome. The team was responsive, helped us to select a great material, was able to leverage existing framing (saved us money) and ensured the new deck was reinforced with updated support posts. They even flexed to accommodate our last minute decision to add a patio with another vendor so that the deck and patio worked together. The team was hard working and a pleasure to work with. Definitely recommend if you're looking to add a beautiful deck to your home!"

"Abe is incredibly efficient in his work. He did an outstanding job building my deck, and got everything done just how I wanted it and described. He inspects his own work as well to make sure it is up to his standards and if he notices something he doesn’t like, he will fix it immediately! He wants you to enjoy the space you have created in your mind and give you the very best of that work. He is a proud, hard worker, that loves what he does. I promise you that if you go with Abe he will give you the most excellent work!"

"Prior to the work, Tyler responded to all phone calls immediately. Upon commencing the work, he was well organized, efficient with his time and was very polite. He was one of the most professional contractors to do work in our home and is a very skill craftsman. Without reservation, I would highly recommend him to family and friends as we were pleased with every aspect of his services."

"I dealt with Tim for the price and project details and then Jeff was the man who came out to do the job. The deck had previously been done by a guy who did not know what he was doing so Jeff power washed the entire deck and let it dry for 24 hours, then he sanded the deck and scrubbed it down with denatured alcohol to help remove any remaining paint from before. When the deck was dry, Jeff taped off everything and proceeded to edge everything before he rolled a nice thick layer of paint on the deck. We waited another 24 hours and Jeff returned to apply a nice second coat of paint on the entire deck. Tim and Jeff are very easy to work with and I will most certainly come back to them for future projects."

"Joe was great to work with, he was on time and kept me informed on all steps of the process. The finished product ( sidewalk and steps) looks amazing and adds so much curb appeal. He takes pride in his work. I would definitely recommend him for concrete work."

"Job was done perfectly. Passed the main test being my wife. She was very pleased. Steve also gave us a quote to attach a gate to our deck which was also done perfectly. Braden did a great job of finishing the work. I would use them again in a heartbeat! Thanks again to Steve and Braden. Quality work. Timely. Cleaned up after. You could tell they care about what they do."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
