"Exceptional Contractor for Comprehensive Home Improvement: I recently had the pleasure of working with Claudio and his team for a variety of home improvement projects, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. Initially hired for deck replacement, I was immediately impressed with the quality of their work. This positive experience led me to engage their services for additional projects, including windows and doors replacement, installation of leaf guards for gutters, repairing a leaking roof, fixing the chimney, addressing exterior damage caused by a previous contractor's negligence, replacing shingles, power-washing the house, and painting the exterior. What sets Claudio apart is not just the breadth of services offered but the consistent excellence in each. His carpentry skills are top-notch, evident in the meticulous work on my deck and other wooden structures. Moreover, his reliability and honesty make the entire process stress-free. The pricing is fair, especially considering the wide range of skills he brings to the table. Claudio truly is a man of all trades. Having someone with such diverse skills has been a game-changer for me. I no longer need to juggle multiple contractors for different tasks; he can handle it all. If you're looking for a reliable, honest, and multi-talented professional for your home improvement needs, Claudio is the person for the job. I highly recommend his services and will undoubtedly turn to him for any future projects."

"Matt has done great work for us of varying sizes requiring different skills! 1. Fully renovated a 2 bay garage into a game room with a separate laundry. 2. Built a lattice fence surround for my 500 gallon propane tank - it gently masks the tank and provides a place for climbing roses! 3. Rebuilt a pergola that had rotted. 4. Replaced an eyebrow window and trim. Matt gives a solid estimate, stays on track and goes the extra mile to make sure you’re satisfied. Will continue to use him for all carpentry projects! Thank you Matt!"

"We were looking to have 6 rooms painted before we moved into our new home. It was a busy time of year and Paulo was very accommodating working around his schedule and ours to get the job done. The estimate given was "right on" and the painting job done is beautiful. I'm still walking into rooms and marveling at the colors and the degree of care that was taken. Paulo himself is lovely to work with, always with a smile on his face and eager to please. We will definitely be calling him again for future painting projects. Thank you Paulo"

"Mike did a great job on the install of our dropped ceiling. He returned phone calls, was honest, showed up when he said he would show up, cleaned up and was helpful with other aspects of our overall project. I can't recommend Mike for any and all of your home building projects. Look no further than M. Grigs Construction. His assistant was another highlight of having Grigs Construction complete our project. Thanks Mike!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

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.
