"MW Construction built a new home for us and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. They were very professional and did a superb job. MW was quick to return our phone calls and answer any questions that we had during the building process. I would highly recommend them."
"Our project was a 14' x 14' screened porch. We selected Scott SCS from other contractors based on the interview, his knowledge, understanding of the project, and communication skills. He improved our original design and made numerous suggestions during the construction process. He understood our vision of the porch and he delivered. From start to finish Scott and his work crew were always on time, polite, professional, and cleaned up the area before departing every day. I was on site watching and taking photos. So I can attest to the craftmanship and attention to detail of the crew. Every day I was informed of their plans and then I provided my thoughts, ideas, and concerns. We are extremely pleased with the finish porch and I would highly recommend SCS. They are a 10 in every category."
"Z, Came to my home in Wildwood Crest. He gave me a quote to remodel my laundry room. He was professional, efficient but most of all he gave us advice. He went above and beyond our expectations. The laundry room looks great. I had loose steps coming from my back deck to the yard. I ask Z if that was something he can do? He said, let me grab lunch and a couple tools to do the step and I’ll be back. He gave me a great price and the steps are perfect. Real good guy and very honest. Ray"
"Roberto and his team were outstanding during my time of renovating my apartment. They were so efficient and so attune to detail that I was beyond satisfied, I was elated with the final results of the job they had done. I had no problems whatsoever throughout the whole process. Roberto is an experienced contractor who has an eye for the current style and went above and beyond for me with his services. He went out of his way to help me with more than I paid for and you don’t see this a lot of this in current day on contractors. What I love most about Roberto and his team is that he was honest and fair with me. I can trust him implicitly that he would do an emasculate job and he had the utmost respect for my expectations and concerns. I would hire him again for my next project and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone to remodel a home/apartment. He is the best in the south jersey area hands down!!"
"Joe and his subs did a great job for us. Price was fair, and he was either here, or could almost always be reached, when the work was going on. All the subs were excellent at their specialty and also nice guys that you wouldn't mind letting in your home. Both Joe and they were always sensitive to the fact that we had to live here while the work was going on, and tried to inconvenience us as little as possible. Joe worked with us with each change and/or additional work we requested, and the addition to the bedrooms and new master bath were just what we hoped for. The finished product is beautiful, and we would recommend Joe for any job."
"Mr. Cowan was very responsive. He came out timely and performed the work as described. He also recommended some additional work that needed to be done. He took his work very seriously and did an excellent job. I believe he was a little highly priced, but it is very difficult to find a reliable chimney contractor, and therefore, well worth it. "
"Prompt, courteous and professional. My limited availability was accommodated. The faucet replacement was very quick and done professionally. The replacement parts were affordable and high quality. I would use Doc's again in the future."
""The Bathroom and Kitchen King Remodeling" is typically super busy, and you will most likely wait in line for you project to get started. It is well worth the wait! We could not be happier with the finished product. Our new bathroom is gorgeous! The contractor and all sub-contractors arrived on time and did impeccable work, from demolition to completion. They went above and beyond our expectations. I highly recommend "The Bathroom and Kitchen King Remodeling"; You will never have to worry about whether you made the right choice."
Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts
There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet.
Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.
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.
