"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 project went very well. Joe was able to start and finish work on time. His staff is reliable and trustworthy. John is an excellent painter. We have used Joe for various remodeling projects since 2013. We were pleased with his work and have used him for 6 more remodel projects on investment properties as well as our private residence. Other projects have included painting, plumbing, electrical, excavating, basement remodeling including installation of a bathroom, installation of an egress window and deck build. Joe is a true craftsman and wants the job done right. He is our contractor of choice and look forward to many more projects with him."

"I dealt with Tim for the price and project details and then Jeff was the man who came out to do the job. The deck had previously been done by a guy who did not know what he was doing so Jeff power washed the entire deck and let it dry for 24 hours, then he sanded the deck and scrubbed it down with denatured alcohol to help remove any remaining paint from before. When the deck was dry, Jeff taped off everything and proceeded to edge everything before he rolled a nice thick layer of paint on the deck. We waited another 24 hours and Jeff returned to apply a nice second coat of paint on the entire deck. Tim and Jeff are very easy to work with and I will most certainly come back to them for future projects."

"

I called Greg for an estimate and he called back promptly to schedule a time. He gave me a thorough written estimate via email. He showed up when he said he would and painted the areas as mentioned above. He was very cautious as to not get any paint or debris on the new carpet. He was meticulous in his work....detail oriented. He prepared all surfaces prior to painting...fixing nail pops etc. He did not expect any payment until the work was completed to my satisfaction. I ended up paying less than the estimate because it did not take him as long as he estimated. He also used less paint than estimated and that was reflected in the final cost as well. I do not know how other painters charge for paint but I know that Greg did not mark up the paint he used. He purchased the paint with his contractor discount but did not inflate the cost for me.

I plan on using Smiley's Painting to do some exterior work for me in the Spring. By the way, he is a one man business and you have to take that into consideration when you seek his services.

"We hired Outdoor Design Build in June this past summer (2024) to completely remodel our backyard as we had a 20+ year old deck that was writing. David helped us design, build and complete what is now our backyard oasis that we love. David was attentive, timely, and responded to our needs as well as made great recommendations based on his years of experience. His crew was so awesome as well. I recommend if affordable for your backyard oasis project."

"We hired Karl to replace our aging front porch support columns and railings. As eloquently stated in a previous review, ‘from the start, Karl was responsive, communicative, courteous and professional. He is a conscientious, hardworking and creative young man. He provided us with a written quote and kept us informed throughout the project’. He persevered though some challenging hot weather conditions and completed our porch project within a few days. The quality and workmanship Karl put into our porch is top notch and we are extremely pleased with the results! We would certainly hire him again and will recommend him to others. Thanks, Karl!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

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.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

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.

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.
