"Victor’s team came out and stained our cabin and made some repairs. They were very professional and prompt. The work was excellent and completed on time for a very reasonable price. I will definitely call Victor again in the future if I have work to be done. Butch Gaskins"

"We recently had construction work done on our home by D&D siding and construction and are thrilled with the results. We had extensive deterioration on our dormers. Not only did D&D construction replace the damaged material they determined what caused the initial damage and took steps to insure that this reoccur. Their communication regarding the process was clear from start to finish and the workmanship was topnotch. I would highly recommend for any building or repairs."

"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."

"Luis and his crew are excellent. They did an excellent job on painting my outside trim and doors and garage door. They also repaired part of my garage door framing that had come loose and repaired a part of my gutter which was leaking. They were very organized during the prep and cleanup during the painting process. All were very professional and answered all my questions. I would definitely recommend Luis and team. I have already discussed a project I would like for them to do for me later in the future."

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.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

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.
