"I highly recommend NE Carpentry for quality of workmanship, professionalism, and good communication from beginning to end. We had four old windows replaced, two in a rental apartment where the tenant was working. The workers were sensitive in keeping noise and disruption to a minimum. Wood was replaced where necessary around window frames, all was painted at completion, and cleanup left all in order. The two workers, as well as Gil, were a pleasure to work with and to have in our home. We had NE Carpentry renovate two back porches two years ago. We will continue to turn to them for their excellent work as needed in the future."

"Moises and his team did an outstanding job repairing our back porch. He was quick to respond to our call and gave a fair estimate. We were happy with the work he did in a short time framework. If we need any type of carpentry or masonry done in the future, we will definitely use his services again."

"Osmin and his team did a great job replacing our triple-decker back porch. He worked with an architect, that he found, to make sure there were no variances required. This made the permitting process quicker. It was a tricky job because building codes have changed since the porch was first built."

"Ryan and crew were awesome... professional, punctual, excellent workmanship, very fair price. Ryan and Warely did exactly what they said, exactly when they said it would be done. Excellent communications throughout the entire process. Will not hesitate to use Norman Construction again - and very happy to provide high recommendation! Norman Construction built two small-ish additions to our home (at the same time!) - the crew was able to perform some very detailed demo immediately adjacent to our living space to get the work completed .... with zero interruptions or issues to our living space."

"Excellent. From our initial communication with Bill Perry, reviewing the work that needed to be done and giving us a cost with price breakdown, it all took place quickly and professionally. When the deck could not be done until spring, we were concerned that the deck would not hold up through winter. Bill sent one of his men, Mike to build supports under the deck. He did a great job. Carpenters, Dan, Juan and Mike were professional, respectful and punctual. Their attention to detail was excellent. They worked through some very cold days and always cleaned up at the end of each day. Dan always communicated when a change was needed or extra work needed to be done. We decided to put solar lights on the deck, and after a conversation with Dan decided to go with a different idea than we had planned. We ended up ordering lights that Mike found on Amazon which ended up working out perfectly.. Very happy with work that was done and the professionalism of the crew. Would rehire Perry Construction."

"Monique, Eduardo and their team were amazing to work with. I would recommend them to anyone. They did an incredible job on my house renovation. Everything was organized efficiently making it easy and hassle-free. They took care of it all: plumbing, electrical, painting, floor sanding and finishing, carpentry, guttering repairs, etc. The project was on budget and on schedule. The whole team were professional, courteous and punctual. They went above and beyond to make a 160 year old house look beautiful."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

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.

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.
