"Deck was exactly what we had in mind. It?s been 4-5 months since it was built and we love it! It?s been solid in full sun, rain, snow, fall and winter. Honest, timely, and skilled. I?d hire them again in a heartbeat!"

"Mr. JONES came to our home and helped us with options on Mini Split HVAC unit for a room addition. We could not have happier with the customer service and the installation crew. He also looked at our unit for the house and gave us some future options, no high pressure sales tactics. Going to call him next year about our master bathroom remodel when we have the extra money. We are glad we found him. Give him a call you won't be disappointed."

"Greg was amazing! He was very responsive from start to finish. He was on time and did a great job. He installed guard rails for our back stairs. We needed someone quickly and he was able to complete the job the next business day from quote. He also added concrete at the bottom to secure the posts. We will definitely use Allen’s Services again."

"Mr Morales is a gifted man whose work ethic is beyond reproach. His work is outstanding. We have used him For these jobs: gutter cleaning—deck upgrade on front and back of home, also shrubbery and tree limb removal. We plan to use him to complete painting of home both inside and outside, as well as some upgrades in kitchen. We communicated through Google Translate which proved to be easier than anticipated. Photos not available. I will try to upload soon."

"I hired the Tailored Closet for three projects in my house: a small pantry closet, my master closet, and a large pantry cabinet in my kitchen. The work was outstanding! They were so easy to work with getting the designs made, the products were exactly what I was asking for, and install was quick and professional. I am very pleased with the way these turned out! The options they have available for any type of closet or cabinetry is incredible!! You could literally do anything you could imagine. I will definitely be using them for future jobs and recommend them to everyone!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

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.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.
