Home Exteriors, Done Right! Vinyl, PVC, fiber cement, Siding. Windows. Exterior Doors. Vinyl Railings, Columns & Decking, Screened/Storm/Sun rooms... while the products change, our focus on meticulous installation practices and a customer first approach never changes! Choose Lonestar, and "You'll Never Pay a Penny Until the Day Your Work Begins!" Most home improvement contractors ask for 50% upfront...not Lonestar! You have plenty of options for home exteriors here in Richmond. Truth is, we’re not the biggest nor do we have the biggest staff of installers. We just continue to focus on doing things the right way, and our business continues to grow. Our Mission is to "Improve Lives While Improving Homes" How can we help you do both? ***Currently unable to do any repair work for new customers. We will do repair work for past customers***

"Very well. We were informed on a regular basis when the work would start and when the supplies dumpster and other items would arrive. Once everything arrived, the Lonestar staff began the process of removing the old siding and replacing it with the new siding. Partly through the process, the new storm doors were installed. All of this took about 10 days. The staff were very attentive to detail and really took pride in their work. Finally, the new gutters were installed. All in all, a job well done."

Award winning. Gutter Glove of NC LLC is the premium supplier of gutter protection system in the State of North Carolina. Additional contact names - Richard Stroup, Louis Sauer. Additional phone - (919) 696-8839. Award wining.

"Owner Ricky Stroup was infinitely patient with us, as after our initial meeting it took us over a year to hire his company to do this work. During that year, we had multiple conversations with him regarding the scope of our project, and he was as willing to contract the scope as to expand it. He wrote several proposals for us, so we could see the financial impacts of our different scope options. Our indecision on scope, and delay in scheduling, never caused any frustration or ill will on his part. Mr. Stroup was helpful, friendly, and patient throughout! His team installed everything in one day, and all who worked on our project were extremely courteous and professional. We have been very impressed with the quality of the work. Working with Gutter Glove of North Carolina was an enjoyable experience, and I recommend this company!"

Established in 2009, We have traveled as far as New York and North Carolina to meet our customers' needs. No matter the size or scope of the project, we will fully commit to meeting the needs of each of our customers.This is what makes Largo Marble and Granite different from the rest; we treat each and every customer as a relationship - not a just job. Our fabrication shop and showroom is located in Sterling, Virginia. All of our stone fabrication machinery is less than 5 years old and made in Italy. We pride ourselves with the fact that all cutting and polishing is done in our shop with water.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

You can use a nail to find ceiling joists, but it’s not as reliable as a stud finder, and you’ll end up with lots of small holes in your ceiling. If the nail hits a joist, you'll feel increased resistance. Mark the spot with a pencil. Repeat this process regularly along the ceiling, 16 or 24 inches apart, until you've mapped out the joist locations.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.
