"Caleb McGalliard was prompt when I called. He came directly over and was professional in his demeanor and quotes. I am a perfectionist when it comes to my home. Caleb has done a beautiful job in exactly the manner I requested as the finished product. The real beauty of his work can’t even be seen as he laid a very solid foundation for the bed and leveled all the ground and stones around the area. I highly recommend this young man as a trustworthy, professional, courteous, and reasonable contractor!!"

"We have worked with S.M. Marshall Construction and Realty, Inc. for almost 30 years. First, they built our house in Emerald Isle, NC in 1998. Next, they did two major renovations to the property several years later. In between, they were always very helpful and accommodating with minor projects and maintenance. We have always felt like they gave us significant value for our money and they are always pleasant and cheerful to deal with. We can't say enough good about their work and their services. We recommend them without reservation."

"This was my first round at a bathroom remodel. It all went perfectly! Wise Grove Builders did an excellent job. Super talented workmen. Builder was professional. Everyone was respectful, friendly, and neat. They did a great job. They will be the only call I make when I get ready to do my kitchen. They even sent a team of ladies to clean everything to a sparkle when the project was finished. What a treat!"

"The team at Elite has provided exceptional service in completing the necessary work in both our bathroom and master bedroom. The guys were very professional and courteous, even suggesting ways to save us money. We were so pleased, that we contacted them again for additional work. Our second work request has been completed as well. The associate also provided very professional and courteous work. Again, making suggestions about the work that needed to be done to better our request and save money. I highly recommend this company and will continue to use them in the future."

"I've used John in the past and have never had a bad experience. This time he patched up some dry wall that came off when I took down some M3 tape. He sanded the wall down, covered the holes, and repainted the spots. Looks like there was never an issue. As always, great price and friendly, professional customer service!

"I would highly recommend this business.  We had them come and restain the deck and at first just powerwash the house.  They scheduled the work right away.  After doing the pressure washing, there were some areas with paint chips under the soffit.  Mike offered to repaint those for free.  During this, they noticed areas of the soffit that were rotten, so we had them repair those areas of the wood.  They also fixed a few screens that were damaged during the pressure washing for free.  
Everything turned out great, and we are very happy we had this work done.  Mike and Crystal are very professional and easy to work with.  I will be having them do some more work on our house in the near future.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.

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.

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.
