"We spent a long time interviewing contractors to handle our kitchen remodel, and finally settled on VKB - and we are very, very happy that we did! Their showroom is great, and they really were "one-stop shopping." It was so convenient to be able to go to one location to design our new kitchen and choose finishes, cabinets, counters, knobs, tile. Our project manager, Ferhat, and his crew chief, Jose, were extremely professional and courteous. As with any construction project, there were a few hiccups, but the most important part (and in our opinion, what makes VKB great) is that Ferhat and his crew always, ALWAYS, said "We will fix it / solve that problem / make it happen" - and they did. When it came to the stair railing, I wasn't sure how to describe what I wanted, so I simply texted a picture of what I wanted to our project manager, and he recreated it perfectly. Talk about easy!! The crew was conscientious of our home, our pets, and our family, and we never worried about leaving them there alone. It was fun to come home at the end of the day and see the progress. Ferhat and his crew responded to our questions and concerns, and made us feel at ease during this process. Best of all was that they promised they'd be finished with this huge project by Christmas - and they were. Would highly recommend to anyone considering a remodeling project."

"Smoothly. They rebuilt the stair supports and were able to reuse the decking boards so that it would remain matched to the rest of the porch and decking. They warned me that they could not guarantee the reuse of the boards until the stairs were demolished and I appreciated the care they took removing the boards. Felt that I was given an accurate assessment of the extent of the job and they completed it in excellent time."

"Excellent. I knew what I wanted and what I wanted to accomplish. The company president ended up making the trip to my house for the complimentary plan and estimate. I was highly improved with his attention to my needs, recommendations to get the most out of the space and keep costs down for me. We were able to build hanging side out to full depth available and, without looking strange, drop the next 2 sections back to avoid interfering with the window valance. By keeping the surface color close to the wall paint most people are greatly impressed by the storage and the fact that it doesn't detract from the overall space. Did have to be dismantled to re-carpet the room but was surprised that the carpet crew was able to pay careful attention to the pieces and reassemble with very little difficulty (though at lest 3 people required). Many commented as I intended....great selling point for this bedroom."

"I like a contractor that is simple, straight forward, no fancy sales pitch. I thought I needed the whole railing replaced. They stated that was a waste of money and just fix what I had for half the price. I like the honesty."

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"Within days of purchasing the deal, I received the instructions and paper to draw my table templates. The table has 2 drop leaves plus 2 additional leaves that can be inserted in the table. The templates were pretty easy to draw. The finished pads were delivered in a very short time. They fit the table and each of the 4 leaves perfectly and magnetically lock together to keep them aligned when on the table. A year and a half later, I still love these pads."

"Very well. Robert explained the work they would do and he coordinated tile, plumbing and countertop replacement. We had an early 80's kitchen that needed help but we didn't want a major renovation. They updated our cabinets with new, larger doors, painted the frames, added soft-close hinges, and constructed a new cabinet to replace a built-in desk. New backsplash, granite countertops, and hardware. Their work was a superb value and we're pleased with our new "bright" kitchen!"

"Painters arrived exactly on time and accomplished all tasks the same day. The manually stripped the deck and applied two coats of stain. They carefully cleaned and then painted the foundation concrete as it had got dirty over the years. They also scraped, caulked and painted a large bump-out window off our living room.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.
