"Vaun was amazing. He came the same day as I requested and they completed the deck repair very quickly. They did an amazing job and we can once again use our deck. The price was much less than we thought it would be! I will hire Silver Lake Construction for all of my needs. Thank you!!!"

"We used Salt City for our custom closet build. Marinda and her team we incredible. Marinda is incredibly knowledgeable about Closets. The other companies we talked to just put together what felt like a cookie cutter design. Marinda asked US what we needed in our space and then created something that fits our needs perfectly. Highly recommend."

"Matt and his team did a fantastic job. Always on time and worked a full day. Matt did everything I wanted and more. He offered opinions when I was undecided on what I wanted. They power washed my driveway when they were done and left everything clean and amazing looking. I highly recommend this company for your landscaping needs."

"Cesar did an awesome job! He removed three large concrete footings left from some old fence posts, and then installed three new 4x4 fence posts with new concrete footings. He gave me a bid, started that same day, and then finished on the second day. I couldn't have been more pleased. He works hard, is honest and reliable. Thank you Cesar!"

"Very professional, best price for the job, had many other quotes and they wanted to overcharge so much and did not listen to me as well as these guys did. End results are amazing, would recommend to anyone wanting updated inside doors or doors repaired."

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.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors.
