"We were extremely happy having Wilber's Painting to do the work. The staffs are courteous, the carpenters and painters are very professional and take the time to make sure everything is done correctly and to the highest level. For the paint job it is just superb. They finished it much faster than I expected but still looks fantastic, and definitely way much better than I do it myself. Also I am glad they used primers and paints that don't have a strong smell as we were living in the house while the work was being performed. Now we are considering to have the exterior to be painted as well, and for sure we will hire Wilber's Painting."

"Replaced missing siding and painted foundation: Eric was very prompt in responding to my request for a quote. He came to my house on a Sunday to give me an estimate and was extremely flexible with working within my time frame. His price was very reasonable and fair. He would check in with me as the job progressed to review what had been done to ensure I was happy with the work. He and his team were very polite, friendly and eager to make sure we were pleased with the job. I would definitely use them again."

"Top Pros did an excellent job. I originally wanted to repair my deck, but decided on replacing it after they explained the existing issues and the benefits of replacement. They also suggested a new layout which created more usable space on the same footprint. They were professional, responsive, and took pride in their work. The project was completed quickly and the finished product looks great. I would gladly work with them on future projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.
