"We hired Fresh Coat to repair moisture damage to my mother's dining room ceiling. Terry Williams came out and gave my 86-year-old mother a very reasonable quote to repair the damage in the dining room and to primer coat and paint the ceilings in the kitchen, dining room and living room. After talking to my mother, she decided that she wanted the walls and woodwork trim in all three areas painted as well. Mr. Williams came back out to provide an updated quote. The quote was very reasonable. We decided to accept their quote and due to a cancelation is his schedule the job was able to start the very next day. We had Donna and CW as the painters and my mother loved them from the very beginning. Each day they showed up on time with Mr. Williams. They went far and above what was expected. Each day when they finished, they cleaned up their work. Throughout the process Mr. Williams would be there each morning to check on the progress. Mr. Williams never asked for any money until the job was finished. The final bill was exactly the same as the original quote even though they did more work than was in the original quote due to my mother's age. We could not be happier with the final results and would defiantly hire them again. I can't say enough good things about them!"

"Jaren has been the absolute BEST! We had a real mess of a yard. Overgrown invasive honey suckle, uneven slope, fence falling down. Day one, they had all of the overgrown parts cleared and they kept natives that I asked for. Jaren spent several days designing and redesigning our fence to not only make sure it was what we wanted, but also that it was within our budget and up to all of the standards for the city. When work started on the fence it was completed in about 3 days. The result is absolutely more than I could have hoped for. The opening in the fence for my trees, and my gorgeous gates, are my favorite parts. Thank you to this awesome team, I love my back yard now!"

"I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the excellent work you recently completed at my home. The new deck installation looks fantastic, and the quality of the boards/craftsmanship really stand out. It’s clear that great attention to detail was executed, and the final result exceeded my expectations. I also appreciate the thorough pressure washing done on the front of the house. It made a big difference, and really refreshed the exterior look of my home. Throughout the process, your team was professional, reliable, and easy to communicate with. Everything was completed on time and with care. I’m extremely satisfied with the work and would be happy to recommend your services to others. Thanks again!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

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.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.
