"D & D Siding & Construction did a short notice job for me. They replaced all the soffit on my house. They did a great job. Had competitive pricing. Kept the work site clean the entire four days they were on the job. Doug and his son are also really nice guys. They exceeded my expectations. A job very well done."

"Two fine men with steady hands, Built dreams with wood and strong deck stands— Austin, with a measured eye, Andrew, lifting spirits high. They came with tools and hearts aligned, Each plank laid true, each board well-timed. With hammer’s song and sawdust rain, They raised a porch from earth again. The joists were set, the beams stood proud, A sturdy frame that spoke aloud Of craftsmanship both sure and kind— A labor shaped by heart and mind. By sunset’s glow, the work was done, A place to sit beneath the sun, Where laughter lives and peace can land— All thanks to Andrew’s, Austin’s hands. Now every nail and timber speaks Of honest work, of strong and sleek— A deck, but more: a gift well-earned, Where joy and gratitude have turned."

"LM Coatings is an excellent company who offers a variety of state-of-the-art workmanship. They recently replaced newly installed bathroom door with frame and two additional panel doors in master bedroom and on 1st level bath. Upon completion, each door was professionally painted which turned out beautifully. Luis Mora, owner .... staff are highly trained professionals who thrives on attention to detail. I am very pleased with the work they have done for me and will be calling on them again in the very near future. If you are looking for a great contractor, I would highly recommend LM Coatings. They provide quality work, fair price, great housekeeping, good customer relation, respectful and polite."

"The job involved replacement of several deck boards, addition of deck support structure, and sanding/staining, as well as some additional handyman work. The contractor was very knowledgeable and competent and made sure everything was done to our utmost satisfaction. I would highly recommend this company for home repairs and updating."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
