"We are so pleased with the quality work and craftmanship provided by David. We have asked him back for 3 home projects all of which we have been more than satisfied with the outcome. He enlarged a small deck and transformed it into an amazing sun room that allows us 4 season use of the area, just outstanding. He never cuts corners and is professional down to the smallest details. David then came back to install gutter guards to our existing gutters and cleaning out the thoroughly clogged gutters. He then installed a large awning on our basement French doors, which involved some modifications in the existing lighting and waterproofing all around it. David is very skilled, communicates well, and goes beyond what is expected of him to provide quality materials at a more affordable cost to you if he is aware of a cost difference elsewhere. I love that he is a man of faith and lives his faith through his honesty and quality of his work. We truly recommend him highly and are certain you won’t be disappointed"

"David rebuilt my deck stairs which are a story or two high and fixed the railing on top of the deck and fixed the supports under the deck. He also fixed and repaired my back porch. It was a lot of work for both projects, but he did a great job on both. He's very easy to talk to and work with and he has a great personality and work ethic. He listened and answered all my concerns and questions I had about both projects. He even listened to my input about making the deck stairs a little better and it turned out great. He did a fantastic job with my deck and back porch. A He's very knowledgeable and fair with his prices. (I needed a licensed contractor I could depend on that knew what he was doing and wouldn't over charge me or screw me over on substandard work. I've had bad experiences with that in the past with a different contractor.) I was lucky to find David on Angie's List. David did fantastic work and fixed everything I needed fixing. I'm definetly use him again. "

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

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.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
