"RAP did a wonderful job power washing my house and paver patio. I live on a busy road and the house builds up a lot of dirt; the back of the house faces north and gets a lot of green buildup on the siding. After Rich and his crew powerwashed, everything is clean, bright and beautiful. The pavers came out great, too, they look like new! Easy to work with and a really good price."

"Tim was prompt, professional & listened to my questions and answered my questions patiently. His knowledge of materials and costs helped me get this project done well & in my spending plan too. My decks are now in great shape, look better than they have for some time, since Dominion’s very skilled crew replaced worn decking and stained the deck and railings. Our family can really enjoy this special part of our home for years to come now!"

"Marco and the team were excellent. They arrived on time. I had air leaking from around an attic ladder that was improperly installed by another contractor. The team not only performed the essential carpentry work, but also painted the ladder door which added a professional touch."

"Don arrived on time for the appointment and started work quickly.  Our priority task was the installation of a number of light fixtures, which he was able to complete efficiently with time to spare for a few extra handyman tasks not on our initial list.  We also are preparing for a door replacement project, and Don was able to give an assessment of the required effort and a few flexible options for engaging his services on the project.  Overall a very professional and experienced handyman, and we expect to work with him again in the future.

"I never thought I would ever write a positive review with contractors. Top Pros completely replaced my old wood deck with composite. The detail and customization of the job was impeccable. As a customer who pays extra attention to minor details I can honestly write this to say thank you to Eric for building my deck, he used quality materials even new wood to drop a dumpster on my driveway was shocking. Eric was always on time, went beyond my expectations and always backed up his work. Don't think twice hire Top Pros it will be hard to find the friendliest, amazing prices and quality work from a local contractor. This is a real review from a real customer who is never 100% satisfied!"

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. 

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

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.

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.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
