"We used Spinner Construction to expand our back deck, and also build a covered, screened front porch. They did an exceptional job on both projects. Tyler and his crew are professional and very courteous. Tyler came by daily to check on progress and kept us informed on what was going on. I would highly recommend them for your project."

"We had water damage in our guest bathroom/bedroom and originally hired Mr. Bill for that repair only. We ended up with having Integrity Builders doing the following: wall cut out and barn doors installed in entryway for relocation of office, office wall build in, fireplace/tv build in, door installed at the bottom of stairs leading to attic, under the stairs build in and master bath remodel. Needless to say, we are pleased with Integrity Builders and would recommend them for any job needed for your home or business. Mr. Bill is a perfectionist and the work is wonderful!!!"

"Troy and Matt did a fantastic job framing and installing custom surround for a new fireplace and prepping for the install of a barn door on the guest bathroom. TJ did a good job gutting an office and prepping and painting. I would without a drought hire them again and actually have some projects for next spring"

"Tyler did a great job with some custom carpentry work for us, installing windows, hanging a door, tiling and painting a bonus room. He also built a special table for our daughter use while she is recovering from major hip surgery. The craftsmanship is outstanding and it has been a lifesaver in her recovery process. Tyler is as skilled as he is compassionate and we can’t say enough about the work he has done for us."

"They didn't have the specialties required for this project. They said they could take down the door and place it on the lawn to work on. Then they would sand the door by hand and then paint with an rust preventative and then with the White paint. None of the suggestions would work. We required SodaBlasting to remove the old paint. Then Powder coat with White coating."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
