"Mr. Hill and crew did an excellent job refurbishing an outdoor screened-in patio. Job included new doors, screens, paneling, and painting. Quality of work was good. Cost was fair. And they finished in 3 days."

"I could not be happier with my new enclosed porch! Mike came out in 11/21 and described options, took measurements and gave me an estimate and financing options to enclose an existing side porch for a 3-season room that had a concrete floor, roof and 4 posts. I was told that the project would take about 3 weeks and would begin in March. Everything was spot on! The completed project has aluminum framing, two steel doors, and vinyl floor. Everybody who's seen it says it's gorgeous! I am very satisfied."

My name is Matthew and I’m 24 years old with a background in accounting and finance from Temple University, but found my real passion in construction. After four years in accounting, I transitioned into rough framing and have spent the last two years fully committed to mastering the craft. I take pride in being dependable, hardworking, and easy to communicate with. I genuinely enjoy the work, care about doing things the right way, and bring a strong attention to detail to every project. Looking to continue building long-term relationships with homeowners and contractors who value quality work and professionalism.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

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.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.
