"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."

"Mike and Jim did an outstanding job leveling, reinforcing and and structurally improving my mother's deck. They made certain that my 90 year old mother could safely navigate outdoors on the deck which is her very favorite place to be! I am beyond satisfied with this finished Deck repair project by Mike and Jim of Tri-state Home Repair & Maintenance. They have exceeded all our expectations!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.
