"Outstanding work, what ever you need done they were able to complete it at a timely manner. I needed a safe and affordable deck and they did just that. Plus Scott and his team went out of their way to over build to make sure we were safe but also make it aesthetically pleasing. Anything that came along they kept us informed and make sure we were educated to make the right decisions. Very pleased with their work and can’t wait to call them back to do more home Reno. You won’t be disappointed."

"Bill and Billy were very professional and efficient with the projects I had at my home. They built me and 2 car garage and deck off the back of my house. Pricing was very fair and the quality of their work was top notch. They're family owned and operated. I highly recommend them as a general contractor and builder for any home projects."

"I can’t express how grateful my family and I are for Matt and his company. Hurricane Helene caused catastrophic damage to our house and property. The storm caused the back side of our house to almost wash away and flooded our entire down stairs finished basement. We called Matt and his company and they were out within a day to look at the damage. He gave us an extremely fair quote. The following day before we even cut him a check. He had his crew out at our property and the back side of our house up on jacks. The communication was outstanding!! They were able to get the back side of my house Jacked back up and back on properly placed posts. They also were able to help replace and redo my finished basement and some damaged plumbing . We had been wanting to add an extra room for one of our boys for a while and didn’t have the know how or financial means. Matt went ahead and built us the extra bedroom, and only charged us building supply costs.. The bedroom came out beautiful and was better than we could have ever expected . During this time FEMA and insurance were and have been of very little financial help. This project almost completely came out of my own pocket. They did the work as asked and then went a step above to do the work before, I was able to completely pay them. They never hounded us for money and were completely sympathetic and understanding to our situation. I wish every company had an owner like Matt. Outstanding work, extremely fairly priced, and most of all he was extremely empathetic and didn’t seem to care about his bottom line. He only truly seemed to care about our situation and that we were happy with what work he had done for us. I can’t brag enough or be thankful enough for Matt, his company, and the quality of work that they did."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

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.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project.
