"This company has cleaned & treated my deck for many years. They remind me when it’s time to schedule, arrive on time, treat my property & neighbors with respect, and do a very nice job. When I’ve had complaints, they’ve addressed & corrected them promptly. My advice—schedule early in the season as they get very busy. Happy to recommend them."

"I am very satisfied with the work I had done by Fox Renovations. Jon and his crew repaired and replaced sections on my privacy fence and finished the job in one day. They showed up when they told me they would and completed the work very quickly."

"They had to tear down existing deck and replace with composite decking. Finished product looks great. They also did some landscaping around the pool which also looks great. I would definitely recommend Brock Marshall and crew and will be using them again."

"The man who performed the work was great! On time. Professional. Good job. He measured everything from floors to walls for estimates for laminate and paint. Again, he was great!!. I didn’t hear back. He messaged after I texted and said they couldn’t get to me until the following month. But I still didn’t get the estimate. The first time I ever hired a handyman. So just an ok experience."

"Greg contacted me almost immediately after I received the referral from Angie's List.  He agreed to come by my house and perform the work I requested and was very polite, well organized and efficient.  His work was excellent and he stayed in touch with me until everything was completed so that I was aware of his plans.  I would certainly contract with him again and/or recommend him to anyone in need of a painter/handyman.

"From my very first phone call, Tim was extremely helpful and eager to assist, clearly explaining the process and answering all of my questions. Jim visited first to assess the project, and I explained that the work would involve remodeling an existing built‑in furniture unit and transforming it into a functional home office. He fully understood the scope and offered practical input based on his experience. Jim completed the work on time and to a very high standard, with excellent attention to detail and overall quality. The transformation from the original built‑in to the finished home office exceeded my expectations, both in terms of craftsmanship and functionality. It was a pleasure working with Tristate from start to finish, and I would not hesitate to highly recommend them."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

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.
