"Steve assembled a trampoline for me in about 3 hours on a Friday morning. He was kind, knowledgeable, and communicative throughout the whole process. He broke a bolt during installation and drove to the local hardware store to replace it. He also hauled all the trash away for a small, reasonable extra fee that was negotiated in the spot. Zero complaints. Just good work. Steve will be the first person I call for assistance with other jobs from now on for sure. Thank you!"

"I hired Michele to demo existing tile backsplash and install new. She was able to preserve the majority of the underlying wall and prime if for the new tile which in itself was a large task as it appeared that it was not professionally installed. She took her time to ensure that the tile was straight and that the grout lines were symmetrical. It looked very clean and precise. She was prompt everyday, she cleaned up after herself every day, was was quiet and respectful during her time working on the job which was important because my husband works from home. She completed the job in the planned time frame and on the days as promised to accommodate our schedule. I will recommend Michele to anyone needing high quality tile work in the future! If we have any other jobs we will definitely reach out to her."

"What a great experience with Travis - professional, honest, timely, and a good communicator. I had a 14 year old deck that looked tired and needed a new look .Travis suggested we were able to still use the frame and totally update everything else( composite floor and steps, wood railings and aluminum balusters) for a very good cost savings over most , or should I say ALL other deck builders!!!! I appreciate his honesty and forthrightness during the whole process. There was no long wait to rebuild it or no delays during the process. My deck is beautiful, It speaks quality. I am happy. Such a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommend. Thank you Travis."

"James possesses a knack for design as well as keen attention to detail. His pricing is competitive and often below what comparable services offer. I was well-pleased with his work. It turned out beautiful! In addition, he did a backsplash with arabesque style tile, put up a stove hood, installed a shiplap wall and redid framing around windows and doors, plus additional framing."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

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.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.
