"My wife has an antique telephone table that’s over 100 years old from Germany. It is the only family heirloom she had left. It was damaged in a move and I hired a carpenter from Restoration Hardware to come and repair it. He repaired it incorrectly, used glue instead of nails and then blocked my number after he screwed up! Out of desperation we called Wilfredo. Wilfredo was there in a day, repaired it on the spot and secured a priceless treasure! At the end of the day, carpentry is a skill that you don’t want to compromise on. There is no such thing as saving money when it comes to carpentry so you’d better do it right the first time with someone who knows what they are doing, and that is Wilfredo!"

"This is the second time we have used Max Contractors Services for our interior painting needs. Mr. Adrian is a pleasure to work with and the painters were professional, prompt and did a fabulous thorough job. We would be happy to use them again."

"This company did an amazing job with a deck build for us! We showed them some ideas we had and they made some small but impactful design tweaks and came up with something even better than what we’d imagined! Really professional crew - showed up on time, cleaned up after themselves, and - most importantly - build a beautiful, high-quality deck! Would definitely recommend."

"I hired them to build me a cedar awning on the back patio door. They did a real nice job. I had an idea of how I wanted it and they delivered 100%! Usually I don't do reviews like these but they do deserve it. They stained the awning and also installed the shingles to match my home."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

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.
