"Totally satisfied. Very thorough and skillful work. They were invested in making the project the best it could be. Very reasonable cost. Our home has great curb appeal now. Probably the best contractor experience we’ve had out in central Mass."

"I just received my hand made cutting board. This is a beautifully, well crafted board that will not only function as a traditional cutting board but serve as a statement piece in my kitchen. Michael listened to my needs and created exactly what I had envisioned. Turn around time was less than a week. I am very happy with my product and would recommend his work going forward."

"Workmanship, timeliness and cleanliness were above average. I have no complaints about anything that was done. I only have one issue which was with communication. Two major aspects of the job were changed without my consent therefore I did not have input into changes I would have made as it was too late when I noticed these changes. They were understandable as they would do to zoning and or building code. But I would’ve had them done completely different. Had I had a choice. This was totally unintentional. I chalk it up to a learning experience on both ends. Other than that everything was exceptional."

"Hess and Son was one of the best companies we’ve dealt with. We hired them to redo our deck and to build a new deck next to the old. Not only did they do an excellent job (and for a very reasonable price), but they were here every day working on the project. I think they finished our project in a little over a week and it was ALOT of work. The company is extremely responsive and sticks to their word, which is SO important. I can’t recommend them enough for your next project!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

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.
