"My home recently suffered wind damage to the vinyl siding. A friend recommended I contact ANGI. Within minutes I received the names of six contractors. I communicated with all, but only four replied. I interviewed all four, received quotes to re-side the entire backmof my home. Within three days I made my decision. Walking Miracle Renovations won out. The owner was very responsive, answered all my questions and concerns promptly. His bid was competitive and he followed through on scheduling the project. Workmanship, attention to details, & follow-through were exemplary. I am very pleased with the work and will definitely call them should I require more work @ my home."

"CBJ Home Improvements did a fantastic job on my outdoor living project (enlarging deck, installing screen room, and building a patio). First of all, the workers that built each part of the project were Craftsmen! Each putting in their own expert 'signature' custom piece. Secondly, they finished the work within the scheduled time. I will get CBJ for all my general contracting needs! Al and Vanessa"

"When Zack and Nick came out, there were respectful. I am in my 70's and they made no attempt to take advantage of me. They made recommendations, explained why they were recommending different things. They made every effort to stay within my budget and succeeded. When the workmen came, they were fast and efficient and did a wonderful job. I would recommend Blue Crab Home Solutions for any and all home repairs and builds."

"Mr. Brown did a fantastic job in building my red brick steps and concrete walkway in a timely manner. I recommend this company to everyone. At great price, it was affordable and he built the steps himself."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Excellent service for the money. Very efficient. Started early and finished early. Very friendly staff. Had heavy mildew in vinyl siding, gutters, fascia, etc. Service removed it all. Also had them clean my deck and did an excellent job. Highly recommend."

"The team fixed the foundation around our crawlspace vent and also did a full repair of our stone and brick porch. They also installed a railing on our porch. Our Sales Rep, Keith, kept us in the loop through every step of our project and the guys who completed the work were fantastic. We couldnâ t be happier with the results"

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

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

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.
