"Marvin did a fantastic job... All work performed as requested and envisioned, which was painting with accent trim on arches and other selected areas. If there was one downside, it would be the project time was underestimated... but believe this project will help him better estimate time requirements."

"Melvin is in very way a gentleman along with his 2 assistants...courteous...punctual...professional...meticulous.They came in at 8:00 and worked til 6:00...laid out all the structure for the fence...the next morning...were back at 8:00 and hit it hard again finishing my entire fence line at 2:00 P.M. I'm hiring them again for my deck restoration. (HIGHLY) recommend Melvin Barnet and his fencing company for your next project as well as every future project.There's a reason why this gentleman has a 5 star rating. He EARNS it on every project. Did I Mention that when they left...they left EVERYTHING cleaner than they found it?"

"We shopped several agencies for our shower addition. G&G remodeling was very responsive, realistic on cost, and walked us through each step of the process answering all our questions. They extended the door frame, did drainage, floor and shower tile work, installed vanity, lighting, painted, etc. Any (minor) issues we had, Gerbi addressed thoroughly and expediently. His team was friendly and did good work. Would definitely recommend and use them again! Mario"

"After examination it was determined it could not be fixed and it was recommended it be replaced. Arrangements were made and a metal ladder (wooden no longer available) was installed. It was framed and painted. The door was also painted. The installer also installed some molding around the opening to keep out cold air.*****"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

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.

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.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
