"Jose and his crew did an outstanding job on our extensive interior and exterior renovation, which included a new addition. The project covered everything from a new structural roof with shingles and skylights to new construction windows and doors, siding, a Trex deck, and fully renovated kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room. They also refinished a bedroom and installed beautiful hardwood floors. As with any large project, a few unexpected challenges came up, but Jose handled them with professionalism and kept everything moving forward smoothly. His craftsmanship is excellent, and he’s not only easy to work with but also patient and highly skilled at problem-solving. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Jose again for future projects and highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality work and a reliable contractor."

"Artie & Mike are simply the best. I used them to: 1) Build a LARGE extension to my house and redo my entire kitchen and dining room. The job was completed on time and on budget. Throughout the process Artie was transparent & professional. EVERY person who has stepped into my house has complimented at the detailed perfection. 3) Artie built us a custom walk in pantry 2) Built 2 large decks in the backyard as well as an outdoor shower. This project was completed on time, on budget while exceeding all expectations. If you are looking for a contractor and crew that is responsible, responsive, polite, creative and delivers the HIGHEST LEVEL of quality - Artie is the one."

"Ray didn’t just put in a whole new kitchen, including a pantry. He also ( I hope I remember everything) remodelled two bathrooms, put in a new front door, built steps into my garage, brought my washer & dryer up from the basement & installed it in my garage, helped us put together our gazebo. My favorite thing he built is our gorgeous large deck. We joke about it, it’s so well built that we’re holding onto it in a hurricane. Ray is so easy to work with, very caring & creative with suggestions. He has the nicest & very capable workers. We still stay in contact on a friendly bases, can’t say that about all contractors."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

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.
