"They did a great job painting our son's nursery! Clear communication from the beginning, excellent price, and a quick turnaround for both the quote and the actual job. Tom was extremely efficient and detailed with the chair railing and trim work. The room looks amazing and I even had him take a look at another potential project so we will absolutely be using Just Right again. Couldn't be happier with the end result!"

Team was profession, courteous and they did incredible work. I highly recommend them. Owners pricing was fair and no games which is rare in that world."

"Danny Construction built a 2 level deck, 800 plus square feet. He quoted a reasonable price and stuck to it. He quoted a time frame ( 2 weeks ) and stuck to it. That being said the most important to me was his quality of work. Danny is a master craftsman. His workmanship is impeccable down to the smallest detail. I would highly recommend Danny Construction for any and all building needs. John , Atlantic Beach NY"

Customers say: Quick response

"We had Robert perform yet another project at our house. This was a challenging one as it was extending our kitchen and matching the previous build as closely as possible (without knowing who did the original build). As always, his work was flawless with a tremendous attention to detail, and patience in finding the proper pieces to make it work. He also added cabinets and a sink to our laundry room. Could not recommend him more greatly for any project."

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

Many people, including professionals in the field, use baluster and spindle interchangeably to describe the vertical components of a railing (or technically, a balustrade). However, there are subtle or distinct differences, depending on who you ask. The most common interpretation is that spindles are thin or delicate versions of balusters.

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.

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.

Homeowners insurance may cover damaged floor joists, depending on your policy. Insurance typically covers issues from storms, fires, or water damage from burst pipes. However, don't expect your insurance company to cover damage from wear and tear, poor maintenance, or termites.

Tipping contractors, builders, or general contractors is not customary or expected. Unlike many service professions where tipping is built into the payment structure, construction professionals typically charge a full rate for their services. However, you may choose to tip a worker for exceptional service, such as if they go above and beyond, stay late to meet a deadline, or work on a holiday weekend. Before offering a tip, it's a good idea to ask about the company's policy, as some prohibit their employees from accepting gratuities. If you want to show your appreciation for a job well done without giving a cash tip, consider writing a positive online review or offering to serve as a reference for potential new customers.
