"Job was done when scheduled. Had to have a large covered deck leveled. The foreman Ron was excellent. Originally scheduled for 1-1/2 days got it all done by finishing after 5:30 p.m in one day. Sean Gleason came by while the job was being done to check on things and made recommendations to make sure everything was perfect and oversaw what was happening. He came back again the next day and checked the work one last time to make sure the job was completed and I was satisfied. Said that in the spring after any other movement of the deck to check and make sure it was level. Had a level on the deck while doing the job to make sure it was completely level. Doors and windows all open and close easily now. Job well done!"

"This guy is great, and I would highly recommend his work due to his professionalism, quality of work, and pricing! 1. I liked that when we first spoke, he set great expectations on the phone. 2. Showed up on time for the estimate, communicated well throughout the process. 3. His price was not the cheapest, but I want quality work and it was worth every penny! Hire this guy, you wonâ t be disappointed."

"Hired these guys to build a long half wall built out onto a concrete floor in order to mount some electrical equipment. Zack was very knowledgeable, and gave me a couple options for what I wanted to achieve. He also helped me build the wall in such a way that allowed easy access for the electricians coming in behind him, which helped save time and cost later down the line. Quote was very reasonable, and the install was done quickly and efficiently, with a high level of attention to detail. I was very satisfied and have recommended them to others who ended up having a similar experience. High level of professionalism and very respectful, honest folks. look forward to having them involved in my next big project."

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.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

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.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.
