"Deck Renewal Systems delivered a beautiful, quality deck for our home! We are pleased with the outcome. The team was responsive, helped us to select a great material, was able to leverage existing framing (saved us money) and ensured the new deck was reinforced with updated support posts. They even flexed to accommodate our last minute decision to add a patio with another vendor so that the deck and patio worked together. The team was hard working and a pleasure to work with. Definitely recommend if you're looking to add a beautiful deck to your home!"

"All Around Joe has done an excellent job on all work that they've done for us over the last fifteen years. Joe Wood delivers on what he says he will do…from stopping our basement leak, to remodeling our kitchen, to remodeling out utility room, to gutting an old 10000 sq ft restaurant and creating a modern medical building, along with many smaller projects to numerous to remember. He additionally has attention to detail and the unique ability to look at an issue and then develop a solution to correct that specific problem. Joe also hires very talented, trustworthy people who have been a pleasure to work with; they have respected our time by communicating often and keeping us in the loop at all times."

"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."

"C.J came out to our home to inspect the work only a few days after I contacted them I was impressed with his knowledge of what had to be done. l When I mentioned that there was dampness in the basement need where the porch was overhead, he immediately said he would add flashing to fix the problem. I was impressed that he was not a sub-contractor as the service I had been using. I could be assured of quality work each time they came to my house. I liked how clean and organized his Mr. Handyman truck was, and the quality of his tools. Here, I thought, is a real professional who takes pride in his work. The entire structure was well made. I was especially concerned that the step railing was sturdy and made to last .He even brought his own generator to power his tools, since there was no easy access to an outside outlet, and I needed to leave for a while.

"Greg was very prompt in meeting me at the job site.  We reviewed what work needed to be preformed.  Greg called me with his bid as promised.  He followed up with a written bid by e mailing the bid to me.  I obtained three bids for this project. Greg`s bid was very competitive but not the lowest. I had used Greg in the past to paint my kitchen in my previous home his workmanship was top notch. Once again I was very impressed with his workmanship and could tell he was determined to finish the job on time and more importantly that I was satisfied with the final product. If you need a painter that is prompt, very skilled at his trade, price competitive and determined to satisfy his customers Greg is your man!

"Cincy Premium Exterior did a great job! The siding, gutters and sidewalk look amazing! Our house had been looking fuzzy, sad and a bit neglected. After Jared was done with the job, everything is looking bright and clean! Highly recommend for a quick house refresh."

"I recently hired Tri State Complete Home Repair to install a step and hand rail to my sister's home for easier access. Tri State Complete Home Repair responded right away and within 24 hours of my search! Tim listened to my concerns and came up with a solution that works very well. So well in fact that I had them come to my house the next day and install hand rails at the entrance of my home. The workmanship was great and Jim, the carpenter was wonderful! He listened to our concerns, came up with a plan and made it work! The job he did was sturdy and very secure. The job site was totally cleaned up afterwards. I highly recommend Tri State Complete Home Repair and will be sure to use them again when I need additional work done."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

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.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

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.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.
