"Wonderful! If only our insurance company had been as responsive as the handyman. They also hung our tv on the wall the same day they did the siding!! We will use for all future projects. Price noted included all materials, and he found matching siding for our old house!"

"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"

"I was faced with the daunting task of remodeling my 40 year old homes exterior. There was a lot of damaged wood and made looking at this project very difficult. The team at Home Genius were very great at putting my mind at ease when dealing with the siding. There?s were very intricate details in finishing my project and the crew really did a fantastic job putting it all together."

"Carlos and his crew did outstanding work in installing a new ceiling in our living and dining rooms and in painting those rooms and our kitchen cabinets. We are absolutely delighted with the results! They were very punctual. Carlos explained the steps needed to complete the jobs. He and his crew took great care of our furnishings and left the rooms in spotless condition. His prices seemed more than fair. He and his crew were pleasant and friendly. It was a pleasure having them in our home! We will not hesitate to hire them again should the need arise. We highly recommend them! Bill and Pat Carpenter"

"Accurate estimate and the job was started promptly. Great work on our new deck and the design details suggested by the carpenters added much to the overall look of the deck. Great cleanup afterwards, also. Many thanks! We would highly recommend Tidewater."

"Great company. Locally owned. Chris (the owner) worked with me to design exactly what I needed. I was not sure on some aspects and he made suggestions which worked well for me. He also made suggestions to save me money. He ensured the build met local codes. And was receptive to changes I asked for along the way. Highly recommended. If you want a summer build book him early as he gets very busy."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them.
