"Dave and his team are top notch. Dave listens to your ideas and offers some wonderful ideas of his own. He started the 6 week job on time and finished on time. His team were professional, courteous and, most of all, very tidy. They cleaned up the mess everyday. Dave was recommended to me by a neighbor that renovated their home. In fact he is here again right now building a mantle for my center fireplace. I will also hire him to install a tile back splash over my stove. His prices are very reasonable and competitive with other contractors out there. I am now living full time in a home that previously I lived in April through October. It has been warm and cozy all winter long. I love my year round home! I highly recommend Dave and his team for any or your building or renovation needs, be it large or small."

"

A few years ago, we interviewed several top-rated contractors from Angie?s List to add a bathroom to our first floor. Dennis Fecteau of A+D Renovations was our favorite of the bunch?he took careful measurements, suggested solutions, and presented a formal proposal. In the end, we decided not to move forward with the work?

BUT, fast forward 3 years: Last fall we moved into a new house that needed a LOT more work. Dennis was first on my list to call! He came to our home three different times to ensure an accurate proposal for all the different projects we wanted to do. Dennis always arrived on time, with a friendly smile and ready for the day. He usually brought a team with him (Marky and Kenny), and they were also extremely friendly, polite, and conscientious about caring for our home. They were so sweet to my 18-month old daughter as well! Occasionally, Dennis brought in subcontractors (electric and heating), and they were great too. I never had a single concern about leaving them in my home day after day?in fact, Dennis even offered to let my dog out on days that we had to leave the dog at home! They always asked permission before doing anything?for example, during the bathroom demolition process, they wanted to dispose of the material out a second floor window in order to avoid dragging it down our stairs and damaging the walls. They laid out protective coverings on the floors and window sill, and you would never even know that was the path they took! They always cleaned up nicely at the end of each day.



Dennis displayed a high degree of professionalism in everything from the proposal to taking the time to clearly explain all my options?right down to the trim used on the new microwave shelf. No task was too big or small?he treated each one with equal care. And any extra work (outside of the contract) was always detailed in writing in an invoice so I could clearly see the fees, which were fairly priced.


I highly recommend A+D renovations for any kind of work you may need in your home. I look forward to having Dennis and his team back in my home for another project someday.

Customers say: Quick response

"Please be cautious in regards to hiring this contractor. He will provide a contract for both parties to sign, but once the job was completed he requested additional compensation for the work performed and increased the material expenses. I needed to seek legal counsel."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

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. 

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.
