"I had a wood fence replaced on one side of house and had a 3-foot lattice fence at the back of yard on an uphill replaced by a 3-foot black iron fence and it looks EVEN better than I had anticipated! Excellent and efficient communication, not to mention just beautiful work! George's is efficient but unhurried and does it right. That appeals to me. Would absolutely use them again when time to replace the fence (shared) on other side of house and look forward to working with them again when I replace/redesign my back porch/patio next spring/summer!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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. 

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

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. 

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.
