"Rich knew we needed it done before a home inspection later in week and came promptly to give us an estimate and then do the job quickly. He was very responsive, came when he said and did a good job. Would definitely recommend -
Used him last year to power wash our vinyl siding and had equally positive experience and would not hesitate to use again

"Paul and his crew are now my go to guys for landscaping. Paul responded to my request on a Saturday afternoon, came to my home to see work on a Sunday (Father’s Day) my estimate arrived the next day. Pricing was very fair, experienced landscaped came when they said the would, treated my property as is it was there own. And went above and beyond by even putting up my 20 ft Intex pool for me. I would refer Experienced landscaping to anyone."

"We hired this business to fix a giant hole in the foundation at our parsonage that was caused by being struck by a car. Being a church building money was a concern of ours as well as returning to building to its original condition. I met with three other contractors and then met with Angelo and I was immediately put at ease. He was so professional and caring listening to my concerns especially when it came to the safety of our Pastor being that there was a hole in the foundation. He secured the building while we were waiting on inspections and even met with the inspectors to make sure that they were aware of all the damage that occurred. He started work when promised and even finished ahead of time. The pastor told me that her and her dog hardly knew that they were there. They worked in such a way that they didn t disturb either of them. They are truly trustworthy and their craftsmanship is unsurpassed. Looking at it now you would never know that any damages occurred. They also did repairs on a wall in the church that had water damage and they made it look like new. Everyone at Church noticed it right away. I would highly recommend Anthony and Sons. I would look no further and give them a chance to give you the type of service they provided to Wharton United Community Church. They went above and beyond for us and we are truly grateful for them."

"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!"

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

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.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

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.
