"Brawny Builders was great on all accounts. They helped with the design of our project which included a new front entrance, large rear deck, a couple sections of fence and an outdoor shower. They had a competitive quote and we’re able to start quickly. Their crew was hard working, very courteous and customer focused. The project was completed within the agreed timeframe and slightly under budget. The best thing about working with Brawny Builders was their effectiveness in communicating with me about all phases of the project. We’ve worked with many contractors over our years and no one comes to Brawny Builders in their customer relations. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them."

"Very friendly and efficient. Would definitely hire this guy again. But remember, he was an outside contractor that MPO hired to help out. So the grade really is an A for for having a hiring practice that really finds the best people to work for them. I hope all the subcontractors they hire were as good as this guy. Would definitely work with him again."

"Prior to contacting Midwest Spray Coating, the area that I live in experienced record high rainfall.   I discovered a small leak in the crawl (a house that I was under contract to purchase)  so I contacted several contractors for estimates. This was a short sale so I didn't have the same remedies that would typically be available for a conventional sale.    The first two contractors weren't available for over a month due to the high volume of work that was caused by the heavy rain.  My third call was to Midwest Spray Coatings.  They were also very busy but when I explained that I was under contract to buy the house they made time to help me. Midwest Spray Coating supervisor Jason Kalinowski demonstrated to me that he was very knowledgeable.   I was prepared for the worst but he explained that it was a relatively minor leak that could be repaired using the two part injection method.  With his estimate in hand,  I was able to get an OK from the seller's attorney, the mortgage holder and my mortgage provider  to proceed with the work.   I called Jason and once again, although he had a full work schedule, he agreed to make time to help solve the problem.  When the work was completed,   Jason prepared a written statement detailing  the scope of work.  I presented the statement  to my mortgage provider who reviewed and accepted it.  We closed on the our house about 7 days after Jason fixed the leak.  This was a short sale and there was no flexibility with the bank that held the mortgage, so, I believe, without Jason's help we would not have been successful with this house purchase. Midwest Spray Coating's office manager Melissa was also very helpful as she arranged to have the statements that were presented to the mortgage provider sent to me on very short notice.  I also found Chuck, one of the company principals,  who I spoke to on the phone, to be very helpful and professional.   I wouldn't usually write such a long report but Jason, Melissa and Chuck  and Midwest Spray Coating deserve the recognition."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.
