"The new siding on my house looks great. The crew came in the morning and got Wrighty to work. They worked efficiently and produce great quality craftsmanship."
"I could not be happier with the decision to hire Franklin's Finishing Touches. Such quality work at great prices. The owner takes great pride in his work. Not only is he a great painter, he can do flawless drywall repairs, and woodwork. Trustworthy, on time, at the price quoted. I have already decided to have him do more jobs that I was going to let go until next year. He is that good."
"I stained my siding smoking meat and it was dirty just from the elements. Hired jordan to do it because i just couldn’t find the time to do it myself and he did very good job. I recommend him for anything you need done"
"Good. He arrived on time and was respectful. He left a couple of handles screws not tightened which I guess was an oversight. I found a screwdriver and tightened them. He did not clean up behind himself. Other than that I am pleased with the job he did."

"I knew it was going to be challenging to find an investor that would lend me money for this real estate venture. I have lived 20 years in a four unit historic condominium building in downtown Jersey City and I wanted to buy the unit above me as an investment property. But with Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac rules, they would not give me a loan because I would own half the building and this would give me too much control over condo association decisions. I checked with Angie's List where Central Lending was well recommended and spoke with Mark, the president of Central Lending, about my situation and that I needed an unconventional loan outside of Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac oversights. After many disappointments and on the very last day of my contract with the seller, Mark found a lender. And on the very last day of the window to the loan, it closed. I cannot thank Mark and his assistant Judy enough for their patience and steadfast of seeing this through. I cannot tell you the emotional roller-coaster ride I went through during the 4 1/2 month duration. There were many moments that I wanted to give up but Mark reassured me that the sale would happen. Without Mark's personal intervention with the lender and title company, this deal would not have closed. You can be sure that when I am in the market to buy unit #3, I will not hesitate to contact Central Lending. Thank you so much."
An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
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.
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.
Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.
