"First let me say, they were not the least expensive contractor I talked to. They were one of the three that called back after initial Angi's list contact. They are the ones I felt most comfortable with hiring. A few bumps and oopsies at the start, between getting materials and scheduling but nothing approaching deal breaking. In their defense, I am NAVY trained, and if you say start time is 8AM, I give you a 15 minute window either side of that to be ON STATION READY FOR CALL FOR FIRE. To early is disrespectful, and there is no such thing as "fashionably late" The work it self once started was fantastic. All of them did their best to keep noise and dust to a minimum, and came in did the job and left. I will speak directly about some of the crew that worked on my projects. The crew leader was a gentleman named Ivan. He has one man on his crew named Jose, who did all the inside work. EXTREMELY pleased with Jose's work. Either thru a miss understanding, or a realization of what looked professional, my stair rails are much better than originally planned, because he placed baluster shoes on both the top and bottom of each baluster instead of just the bottom as planned. This gentleman is meticulous in his work, and is also very proud of the work he does, and it SHOWS. If you contract with Requin, ask for Ivan and his crew for your job and then ask Ivan for Jose. (Ivan you need to give him a raise!) So today May 4, they will be over to hopefully finish a few small remaining items. If the rain holds off. I would definitely contract with REQUIN again, and am in fact already considering a couple future projects. Probably won't even worry about a bidding process."

"It went excellently smooth and well. The fence in the driveway was not standing 100% upright as it was wobbly and in its last leg to collapse. The fence is actually belonging to my next door neighbor, but since my car has a self remote parking stuff where it can move forward and a backwards by itself, so with the fence not being upright in the driveway for my car to identify via its sensors, it would often not move backwards or else for me at all. So, I gave in, and hired this nice and friendly gentleman off from on a Angi app. He was able to replace two posts in the next doors yard;s fence to get it back to upright 100%. My car now can finally go forward or in reverse by itself efficiently at last! Thanks! I give this pro a five stars!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

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.

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. 

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, 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.
