"Jose and his team were extremely professional, highly knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire project. He provided a fair price without compromising on quality, and his attention to detail was amazing. The final result came out even better than I expected! One of the things I appreciated most was how clean and organized they were. They always kept the work area neat, taking extra care to minimize dust and prevent it from spreading to other parts of the house. I would absolutely hire him again and highly recommend Jose to anyone looking for a skilled, reliable, and detail-oriented contractor. A true professional!"

"

This is the 2nd major project I contracted Art DeRosa & Co for.  The 1st being 4 years ago a major living room/family room renovation which was hugely successful.  That 1st experience led me to award Art (after several other competitive quotes) this 2nd and far larger & more complex project.







Overall it went well but this was a complicated project encompassing all the typical trades and expertise of building a new luxury house but far more complicated because it was a renovation performed while we were living in the home. Dust partition walls with wood framing had to be erected in several locations in the house which included temporary doors for entering and egress in certain areas of the remaining living areas of the house in order to protect the remaining house from dust and demolition , as well as, provide privacy for us during construction. 

Experience, Experience, Experience and Professionalism, Professionalism, Professionalism are the hallmarks of Art DeRosa and company.  He is a seasoned performer and pretty much seen it all.  Art has such a vast amount of home construction experience in both hi-end and medium end homes that he can draw upon a wealth of knowledge in all construction disciplines to implement a fine finished result.  As a former tool and die maker his penchant for hi-precision finish work yields highest quality appearances to things like moldings; trim; windows; doors; floors; etc. etc. 

This complex renovation project lasted 7 months which was within the initial time estimate given at the beginning and Art DeRosa and team were here every single day, day in and day out,  bright and early during that time frame. He did not start any other projects and stayed on the job day-in and day-out even when other sub-contractors such as plumbers and electricians were on the job site excluding his people from doing any other work. Art DeRosa and team were here every single day until final signoff.

I would not hesitate to recommend Art DeRosa & Co for any planned New House and/or House Renovation of any kind.

"Gabrielle is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and reliable. We recently needed repairs on two of our new kitchen cabinets, and after contacting him, he was able to come by within hours to assess the issue and complete the repairs the very next day. His workmanship was exceptional, and the cabinets now look perfect. We truly appreciated his responsiveness, attention to detail, and commitment to quality. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a skilled and dependable carpenter."

"We recently had our foyer completely transformed by Glenn and his crew, and I truly can’t say enough good things about the experience. From start to finish, the professionalism, kindness, and customer service were exceptional. What stood out most was that there was never any pushback, every idea or question was met with “yes, we can do that,” and Glenn always approached the project with patience, confidence, and genuine care. He was incredibly accurate with the project timeline, kept the workspace clean and organized every day, and was very conscientious about working in our home. His crew was professional, respectful, and hardworking throughout the entire process. Most importantly, the final result absolutely brought my vision to life. Glenn truly made my dream foyer a reality. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are beautiful, and you can tell he is extremely talented, knowledgeable, and takes pride in his work. We are beyond happy with the outcome, highly recommend!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

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.
