"We were trying to sell a townhouse in Roanoke area and had some fixes to do, including replacing the old carpet in the basement. Since we no longer live in town, we had to rely on Jeff to get the whole project moving. From measurement to pickup the carpet, installation, cleanup, etc. Jeff did an excellent job. He cares about the details of the job. The price is very good. The quality is great. Highly recommended!"

"Steve is a great guy and very professional. He completed work in a timely manor and went above and beyond on multiple occasions for me in getting my house ready for rental (until I can move into it in a couple years). Easy to work with and always curious."

"A&Romero built an arbor and picket fence for me. My experience was was excellent from start to the completed work. I knew I wanted to work with Jefrin from our first meeting. His presentation was professional and respectful. He listened and took time to understand exactly what I wanted and he provided the best estimate. From the time the job was started Jefrin engaged my opinion so that the end product matched my vision perfectly! They were clean and neat and left everything in good order. I will absolutely hire A&Romero for my next project!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.
