"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."

"When first meeting them, I was very impressed. I had to have work done on my shed. New roof, frame and a ramp. They never criticized that it was a small job. They gave me a great price and came to do the job as promised two days after meeting them. They (Tony, Eric and Jimmy) are perfectionists and came on time. They cleaned up so good, you wouldn t even have known there was work done. HIGHLY RECOMMEND them. I actually took extra business cards to recommend them to my neighbors and friends. They are my contractors for life!!"

"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!"

"Very Professional. Worked well with the building inspectors etc. They designed and built a dock, and a set of stairs to the side entrance of my house. They removed a cantilevered deck and replaced it with a large composite deck, which stopped water leaks into my basement. They also rebuilt and painted a small cantilevered deck. Excellent work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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. 

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

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.
