"Tom and his crew rebuilt our composite deck in the June-July 2018 time frame. We could not be happier with the job. The Built To Last crew was very professional and definitely went the extra mile to ensure that the rebuilt deck was better than new. Everything is very secure and tight. During the construction, Tom made several suggestions to keep the price down while not compromising quality and our satisfaction. Tom provided price transparencies for all materials. Greatly appreciated! We would definitely use Tom and his crew again. Highly recommend Built To Last Construction. Just as a note... this was a very large deck with a great deal of work."

"5/5 Highly Recommend! I recently hired the 4 Seasons Painting & Drywall team for an interior painting project, and I couldn't be more impressed. From the initial communication, walkthrough to the final cleanup, they were the definition of professional. Chris, Will, Brad, Travis and Scott handled the entire job with great care, but what really stood out was their attention to detail. The lines are perfectly sharp, the coverage is flawless, and they took the time to ensure everything was prepped correctly. It’s rare to find a crew that delivers such high-quality work while being efficient and respectful of your home. If you're looking for painters who do the job right the first time, look no further!"

"My wife and I have been working with Tony and his family for a couple of years now on various home improvement projects. Tony has completed several jobs for us, including building a new beautiful new deck and gazebo—with a roof underneath to create a dry storage area. I don’t write many reviews because I have high expectations when it comes to contractors, and most fall short in the little things that make a big difference. Tony is a rare exception. He consistently goes above and beyond to do what’s right for his customers, even when it takes extra time and effort. He’s a true craftsman—personable, detail-oriented, and collaborative. As others have noted, he works closely with you to develop a design that balances quality, functionality, and cost. Before you choose a contractor for your next home project, I strongly recommend sitting down with Tony—you’ll appreciate his skill, insight, and commitment to excellence."

"Mike and Johnny did a great job! They gave a good quote and said they could start the following week. They did the job faster than quoted and were very meticulous with the details. They were even on their hands and knee wiping dust off our floors before they left each day. Already looking at hiring for another project we are working on!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

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.

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.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.
