"Eric and co are the best - attentive, listen, give their professional advice, and just do a great job. The project went really well - repaired water and bug damage and fixed what was originally done in a not so great manner. Our third successful project w/ Eric and team. Very pleased"

"Khaled and his team did a fantastic job designing and building our large custom 3-season sun room with sunken hot tub. Khaled had great design sensibilities and took the time to discuss every detail with us. He is a perfectionist and only picked top materials and more time consuming finishes. Communication was great all along, and the crews were friendly, skilled, and kept the site clean. We love our new room, which perfectly matches our old house in Wellesley"

Customers say: Terrific value

"I hired Rudy’s Carpentry & Painting to repair my indoor stairs, and the results were excellent. Rudy and his were professional, courteous, and respected my 300 year home throughout the project. The repair was done with precision — the stairs are now sturdy, safe, and look fantastic. Rudy completed the work on schedule without cutting corners. He listened to my concerns, explained options, and ensured I was completely satisfied before finishing. I highly recommend Rudy’s Carpentry & Painting to anyone needing reliable home repair. In fact, I have additional projects coming soon and Rudy will be my choice. Their combination of skill, professionalism, and attention to detail makes them a standout resource."

"CP construction and carpenrty did a great job building a new deck for my family. I was kept in the loop during the building process. Most importantly the price was right and great workmanship. I will use CP construction again and I highly recommend. Thanks again guys, from Nigel."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Trex is not stronger than wood, but it lasts longer than wood and is heavier. Trex holds up well to the elements and is resistant to termites thanks to its resilient composition of plastic, reclaimed wood, and sawdust. Trex decking is rot and warp-resistant, making it especially useful in areas that experience a lot of snow and rain.

Depending on your needs, you may find a storebought pole barn is a much less expensive option than a custom-built one. You can find pole barn kits from big box retailers starting at $11,000, but you will be limited when it comes to size and add-on features. As long as you have the necessary skills, you can save on labor costs by doing it yourself; but there are a lot of different skill sets you would need, and mistakes during the building process can lead to excessive repair bills later.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

Yes, barn doors can be too heavy, although the limitation is usually imposed by the mounting hardware you buy and not your home’s framing, unless you’re building an unusually wide door. To keep the weight down, you can opt for 1-by material rather than 2-by material, and choose a softwood like pine rather than a hardwood like maple or oak. Check the weight limits on your mounting hardware, and always attach your door track to studs rather than to drywall anchors.

You don’t typically need a permit to build a shed, but it’s best to check with your local city clerk to make sure before you start the project. Every town, city, and municipality can have different rules when it comes to any home improvement project. Homeowners associations sometimes have restrictions on the materials you can use on your property as well.
