"Andrew and his crew work well as a team, they are efficient and provide excellent results. All very hard working and conscientious, with emphasis on a good quality product. They removed a hot tub and some rotted wood from a deck. After the rotted wood was replaced, the entire deck was stained. Excellent Job! I was so happy with the deck repairs; I asked them to paint the house exterior. I highly recommend Andrew and his team!"

"We were given a competitive quote, and the custom shed build exceeded expectations. The owners went out of their way to check on the quality of work and make sure we were satisfied. I would definitely recommend this company based on our experience."

"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?"

"Dave Lefuer was punctual in his appointment for estimate. Company was very professional. They called every Monday to update on when they would come to work on the decking with all the recent bad winter weather they wanted to reassure us workmanship was of good quality. Would trust them for future deck staining & re-staining jobs in the future."

"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

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

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.
