"Gaby is excellent. He quoted my job accurately and honestly. He worked quickly and effectively- and was done in the time he had predicted. His work is stellar- we are so happy with our deck. He is also so kind and wonderful to have around. I highly recommend Gaby- I will use him again for all my carpentry needs. He is an excellent carpenter!!"

"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."

"Very happy with Vogt and Co. Brian is a talented carpenter, and the work he did was tremendous. He was professional, communicative, courteous, and patient. His attention to detail is unmatched. I will most certainly have Vogt and Co back."

"Liam just did the most spectacular job installing built-in shelving, benches, cubbies, and hooks that turned a formerly useless room into a storage mecca! Liam was timely, responsive, professional, and his work is of stellar quality. I even had another contractor who I had in the home comment on how exceptionally well-built the shelving units are. I'd highly recommend Liam for any job you might be considering."

"Listening/Planning: Joe took time to hear our specific needs- including design simplicity , a similar size and footprint as the original porch and with more shallow risers and wider treads. We wanted to add only one railing. Our goal was to make it easier for aging folks, like us, to access the front entrance. ( And for large deliveries to be made.) He provided us with pictures of porches meeting our criteria. He discussed building materials. Some of which he recommended from his experience and some we had encountered from friends and relatives. In the written estimate Joe included details of everything we requested , his plan for disposal and cleanup , and mentioned the unknown charges (TBD) like the window pane and sill repair. As retirees in no hurry, we were able to watch Joe work. We both admired his work ethic. Dan ( a former engineer, wood canvas canoe builder, and our own home handyman) especially admired Joe's carpentry and careful calculations. He was neat, organized and clearly takes pride in his work. (Justifiably so.) It wasn't until he brought out his small cement mixer that I realized how many talents were required by this dedicated worker Joe found the sill entirely full of critter holes! He first supported the basement ceiling with his handy device and cleaned out the damaged area, (We could now see the front yard from the basement!) Once finished, the house was well- supported and the mess cleaned up."

"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."

"I am extremely happy with the painting and carpentry work done by D&S. The workers came every day and worked long hours to get the job done. Not only did they do a great job but they were pleasant and courteous as well. I would not hesitate to hire them to do additional work for me and I have already referred D&S to others."

"We had last painted our house over 10 years ago and it was in dire need of carpentry work and exterior painting. I found it very easy to work with Real Painting from the start - they had solutions to all of our needs and the quote was detailed and easy to understand. The carpentry team was very skilled and their work exceeded my expectations for quality. The painting crew did an amazing job preparing the house for painting. They completely stripped the paint in most key areas and sanded the clapboards to perfection. Their attention to detail was immaculate - from caulking all to way to the finishing touches with our two-tone paint scheme. They also kept the site very clean. Everyone on the team was friendly, easy to talk to, and always showed that they cared for me as the customer. I am very happy with the work from Real - they delivered a great product at a reasonable price and within the expected timeframe."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.
