"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."

"We hired them to help us add support beams under our deck to properly hold the weight of our hot tub. They also assisted us with fixing a bunch of furniture we ordered that needed to be built. We had them paint our decks and porch plus fix our kitchen sink and replace our bathroom sinks. They also did some other jobs like fixing our door frame, adding fire extinguishers, smoke alarms replacing our outside cameras, changing window blinds, adding special window glass for heat and replacing deck flooring. They are the best contractors we ever dealt with and we own over 60 properties across the USA. They also went to our newest house prior to closing and performed an in depth inspection and found many issues that the inspection company we hired completely missed. We highly recommend this company to handle all your construction needs. We are hiring them to replace the roof, add concrete footings and rip out and put in a new shower and bathroom for our new house in Gatlinburg in February"

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

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.

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.
