"This was a top to bottom power wash, hand scrap, base priming, Ready Patch of boards, hand sanding of Ready Patch, another priming, top coat, trim work, wood repair and shutters of a 218 year old home. Results are amazing, so much so that people stop by to complement the quality of the workmanship. Words cannot due justice to the outcome of this time consuming project. If your home is in need of a professional, reliable and responsive team look no further. Hire Maurice and his crew. You won't be disappointed. Highly recommended."

"My husband and I were very pleased with this company. They gave us a fair price and did an excellent job at restoring our aging deck by first pressure washing it and then applying a high quality paint. We were able to select the color we wanted from a variety of colors. This father and son team were very easy to work with, answered any questions and work in a highly professional manner. We would highly recommend them to others."

"I actually hired Nick!! He was very informative and had a vision to build a new porch. He actually widened our porch because it wasnà  à ¢à  à  à  à  t of code. The work he used was pressure treated wood. It is so sturdy that it will last for years to come. I will definitely recommend him for all needed services."

"We recently hired Joseph & Sons Construction for two separate projects. The first project was the installation of handrails on our front and rear steps. The second project was the building of a cement base for our outdoor shed to be moved. The work was completed in a very professional and expeditious manner. The entire crew should be complimented on a job well done. I would not hesitate to utilize Joseph & Sons Construction for any future home improvement project. Thank you Joseph & Sons."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

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. 

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.
