"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."

"Great job. Jon was quick to contact me and quick to get out and provide an estimate. Job included some deck repair, power wash and paint of a large deck and covered porch. We were doing the work late in the year, so Jon had to work around the weather. He did a great job keeping us informed and was always there on the days he promised and kept the job moving. Quality of work is outstanding. The carpentry was well done and the paint looks fantastic. We are delighted. Not the lowest bidder, but we will use Fox Renovations again based on the high quality of the work performed."

"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."

"We’re happy with the results. Rob was very accommodating, picked up and assembled a shed vs build one at our request. He did a thorough old shed tear down and site prep and hauled away. Good communication throughout. Thank you."

"From the initial service call through completion, Tri-State was a pleasure to work with. Jim arrived earlier than expected, took the time to understand my vision, and got right to work. The finished work was flawless. As a first-time homeowner, I especially appreciated Jim sharing some valuable carpentry tips that I’ll be able to use for years to come. I’ll definitely be calling Tri-State first for any future home repairs. Thank you!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.
