"Fratto Home Improvement and Repair has been our go-to general contractor for several years. Mr. Fratto's work ethic, professionalism, skill level, and punctuality can only be matched by his warm and friendly personality, and a natural talent for customer service, which make him a pleasure to work with. We live in a pre-war building the NYC metropolitan area, and our bathroom renovation involved complete gutting, as well as dealing with many quirky elements often found in older buildings. Mr. Fratto guided us through the entire project from the initial fixture and material choices to the final decorative touches. He stayed within the planned budget and made sure that we were comfortable and informed every step of the way. It is also important to note that the bathroom in question is the only one in our home, yet because of Mr. Fratto's careful planning and methodical approach, we were able to continue using it through the entire project. We feel very comfortable recommending Fratto Home Improvement and repair to anyone interested in a bathroom renovation, kitchen renovation, or any other home improvement project."

"Sean Fleming is the professional contractor that you hope to hire. . I had s flood in my basement requiring sheetrock removal, replacement taping and painting He prepped and redid the floor. Outlets were rewired and stairs reworked. Seans work is clean and impeccable. He completed the work when he said he would and for the price he quoted I hit the contractor jackpot with Fleming Contracting and I hope to hire him again soon for another project"

"Tassio is one of the very best, if not THE BEST worker that I have hired during the 43 years that I have owned my home. He is honest, smart, punctual and reliable. He reviewed everything with me as he did it and explained carefully why everything that needed to be done needed doing. He replaced multiple sheets of the cedar siding on my house and uncovered many areas which the original builders did not do properly. He needed to repair some underlying plywood in addition to replacing the cedar. He was meticulous in his work. He used flashing tape and Tyvek paper over the plywood and used galvanized nails and screws. He also painted some indoor walls that had been damaged by previous water leaks. His workers did an excellent job. They were efficient and neat. They did not splatter paint where it was not supposed to be. He also pointed out other issues with my house that were not part of this repair and which I will deal with separately. I would hire him again in a minute."

"Nixon provides great service in a timely manner. He and his crew were efficient, polite and respectful of the areas they worked in. They performed carpentry work that was excellent and quickly solved a roofing and sealing/painting issue for me. Nixon was responsive by phone and showed up when he said he was going to each time. His pricing was a bit on the high side and you get what you pay for. I will definitely be calling on Nixon and his crew again for future work."

"We had a wonderful experience with Fabian who replaced our shower and sink in the bathroom (as well as building BEAUTIFUL shelves) and he replaced our screen door. He was very flexible and accommodating to our needs. He made sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. No more worrying about finding a great contractor - we've found him!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

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.
