"Jason Reigle and his team were extremely professional. From our original meeting to the project’s completion they reported as scheduled, kept us posted on any and all issues, and delivered as per expectations. We hope to work with them again on future projects."

"We hired J & T for all new siding, decks, and doors and windows in our house near the beach. We talked to three contractors and they were the cheapest with all three using the same materials for the project. J & T did an amazing job. The house looks great. I HIGHLY recommend them for any work you need done to your home."

"I have to say that Boyce and his crew were amazing from the very beginning until the finish. All the other contractors I had come out asked me what I wanted to do and Boyce assessed the situation with my deck and told me what we needed to do. I had two other contractors from angis list out and neither even considered these things that needed to be addressed. Once we discussed all estimates and contractors Boyce and Gault services was the one to go with. Now that the project is complete we couldn’t be more satisfied with the work they did. I can honestly tell you that not one contractor would have done remotely close To what they did. It is an amazing job and we are extremely happy!"

"Hal Moore and his amazing Sanderling team transformed my old, crumbling oceanfront cottage into a fortified beautiful jewel that I never knew was hiding underneath the dangerously weathered structure and extremely dated interior!. From our very first conversation, I knew not only that Hal had the experience and savvy to preserve and improve the house, but also that I could trust him with a big project I'd have to manage from a distance. Neither of us imagined the ugly surprises that would be uncovered along the way, or the insane supply chain issues and subcontractor shortages that plagued the entire process. The team pulled off multiple miracles, found excellent solutions to SO many challenges...I'm convinced many builders would have been tempted to throw up their hands and walk away. But Hal had a vision of what was possible and he never gave up. I hoped for better protection from the elements and modest interior improvements. I got a virtually new house, inside and out, that surpasses my wildest imaginings and will I'm sure be a treasure not only to me, but to all who vacation there. The exterior is now maintenance-free, extremely solid and lovely; the inside is open, full of light, incredibly functional, cozy and comfortable, with lots of classic Carolina cottage charm. If you're so fortunate as to have Hal Moore consider your project, JUMP on the opportunity! You could not do better."

"A+ from start to finish. I have a newer build that is just over 4 years old and the deck had untreated wood used that rotted out an 8x8 support post and several of the joists. Clarence, the owner quickly responded and was out the following day to take a look at the project. He was very kind and honest and said he would have an estimate within 2 days. He had his deck builder out the next day, the estimate (very reasonable) the following day and said they could start the project the same week. You quickly learn in the OBX that getting an estimate for a project this time of year is a lengthy process let alone getting the work scheduled. I reached out to 4 vendors (including Gibbs), and 2 never responded and one was way over-priced. If the project isn't large enough, the not so great contractors will lie and tell you they'll get you an estimate and never respond. THANK YOU to Gibbs Daughters and Clarence for delivering a new beautiful deck with a very reasonable price and fabulous service. Watching your craftsmen work as they did was very cool. They are quite skilled and great at their trade. I will now only reach out to you for any work that is needed on my home. Thank you so very much!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

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. 

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.
