"My pro was skilled and had great attention to detail. Roger always let me know when he was on the way. He did extra work and was courteous. It could have been completed more timely, but honestly, the plaster took time to dry between coats. He painted our whole ceiling after repairing it. He also repaired cat scratches and chipped plaster. by our backdoor & repainted that whole wall. We have an old house and it needs work. He was very good."

"Very pleased with the repairs and painting of my deck. Looks like new again. Two young men worked non- stop out in the boiling sun and were very meticulous about finishing the project correctly. They replaced rotten boards, sanded and scraped the entire deck and gave the deck two coats of paint. I will definitely be using them for future projects."

"This company was a joy to work with!!!!!!! From the time they came to give an estimate until the completion of the project, nothing but punctuality, clean up after everyday's work, questions of mine answered and the quality of their work superior. These workers worked in snow, rain, cold and windy conditions. The quality of the work was unchanged by conditions. My estimate was broken down on a line by line contract and every item was completed. My house is 121 years old and I have lived here for 44 years. many projects have been done but this company met every standard I had with excellence."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

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.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
