"yes Victor was great, came out quick for estimate, once agreed on he started next day. Only b/c of cement work did it take 2 days. He replaced rotten wood siding and placed metal support post on storm damaged carport. Victor is good at his work, very detail oriented and conscientious worker."

"Lorenzo and Armando had great skills building my fence and the price was very reasonable. Their work was very clean and professional. My wife even asked them to clean the gutters and guess what, they did it for free. I never heard such a thing,these guys are the greatest.I would definitely recommend them two friends and family and hire them again."

"First let me say that the owner is very young and has built his business by going amazing quality work. My stairs were a bit complicated, I showed Juan many pictures, and they were able to replicate exactly what I wanted. Juan and his crew were very professional and helpful. They even helped me do some sanding that I was doing. They also showed my husband the best way to build some stairs for our outside deck. Super guys, super workmanship and great price."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

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.

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.

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.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.
