"Jay and Mason are amazing! Fair pricing, on time, replaced screens and painted our front steps - Could not be happier! Quality work and we hired them to come back for another 2 small projects! We will be having them quote us again on a larger undertaking. If I could give them a 10 in the above ratings, I would certainly do so. A Gem of a company! So happy I found them! We will use Jay-Son over and over again."

"Mr. Terry was awesome! This is my first review I am writing. I felt I needed to write something as his work was so outstanding. He repaired 16 windows and did it beautifully. Marvin's quoted over $40K!! He was able to do what was needed for much much less. He was honest, professional, meticulous, extremely knowledgeable and kind. Miles above the window brand quotes which are ridiculous. Would strongly recommend if you need any window repairs!!!"

"From the initial phone call, returned the same afternoon when I had initially left him a message, Bertie was amazingly honest, professional and understanding.  Towards the end of the SAME day that I called him, he came by to look the job over and then called me with an estimate the next day!
Bertie did not balk at the prospect of working on an old house and badly-damaged ceiling.  In fact, even before getting the job, he explained things about the methods that had been used and what had happened over the years to create the conditions we had now.  He was obviously incredibly knowledgeable, AND, not looking askance at the small but possibly frustrating job we needed.
We liked Bertie and accepted his offer almost immediately after getting it.  It seemed fair and he said he could do it within the time frame we needed.  A grand piano needed to be moved out of the room and stored, and we had to do the things needed in the room in a certain very specific order.
Today, the day of the work, Bertie arrived at 7:15 (he had said around 7:30) and very quietly and calmly covered all the surfaces, the entry way to the room, etc.  He worked alone and I thought that was pretty impressive to be able to get those drywall boards in the right place and affixing them himself.  It was obvious that he was an extremely skilled craftsman.
I had to go out for a while and returned home in the late afternoon to the job completely done.  The skimcoat looked AMAZING, smooth and flawless.  No one could have known what was there before!  My husband, who has done much of the work on our house and has difficulty letting someone else do the work, was super-impressed by how wonderful it looked and how easeful it all seemed!  Also, the room and surrounding area was left completely clean and dustfree.
Before Bertie left, he and my husband had a long talk about working on old houses and about all the obstacles you encounter. Bertie is passionate about what he does, very personable, but all business when he comes to doing the actual work.
I ended up walking around my house looking at other areas that need Bertie's magic touch, because it will now be possible to get my husband to agree that he doesn't have to do all the work himself --  that there is someone who will come into our old house and do a great job!!

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
