2016 spots are filling up quickly. Reserve yours now. Immediate call backs. Prompt, courteous, clean & honest. Insured. Lead certified. Integrity matters. 32 years of experience. Uses licensed subs. Pet friendly. Non smoker. No job too small, please don't hesitate to call.

"We are very happy with the work that Mark did to finish our basement. He was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was always on time, he had some great suggestions to improve on our intended design, and the work was top notch. Mark is one of those rare contractors who puts customer service at the top of the list. His team was polite and friendly, and cleaned the work area thoroughly at the end of each day. They worked quickly as well, completing all work within 4 weeks. As we were removing some lally columns to make the basement space more open, the first thing Mark did was bring in a structural engineer to review the loads and determine how best to shore up the beams. The work that Mark did would have easily cost me more than twice as much with the other contractor who quoted the job. I recommend Tongue & Groove 100% and will definitely hire them again!"

1981 years of experience

Colonial Restorations is a father/son company. We use no subcontractors so at least one of us is always on site. Since 1981, Colonial Restorations has provided structural restoration and repair of historic timber frame buildings. A family business, Tom and Brad Green perform all work themselves in order to make sure that your historic timber frame project receives all the experience and commitment it requires.

"Barn Rescue – My barn was hit by a vehicle, which broke a large post and pushed section of siding out from under the roofline, plus major damage at ground level. Brad shored it up for the winter with an array of jacks and an enormous chain to ensure the thing wouldn’t fall down till they could return in the spring. Come spring, they fully replaced the damaged section’s support members and facade, and added bracing to the attic, rendering it stronger than before. Foundation support: The sagging beams and jerry-rigged support columns in the dirt basement of our 18th century house were inadequate. They dug and poured a dozen footings and lally columns, supporting a line of new 6x6 and 9x9 beams that provide solid support to the house above. They showed up promptly every day, worked fast, and left the site clean and finished. Both Brad and Chad have a deep knowledge about old houses and the techniques that were used, and I felt my historic register property was in good hands."

"5 months after the completion of my bathroom renovation, I’m now seeing issues with Alexander Santillan’s work. The grout/caulk work that was done is not satisfactory and is now cracking where the tile meets the ceiling. There are voids in the grout along the walls of the shower. While the contract that we’ve both signed states that he has a one year guarantee on his work, Alex has now become unreachable to resolve the issues seen. I’ve reached out via phone, text and email to no avail. I finally decided to give him a call from my work number and magically, he answers. When I let him know that I’ve been trying to get in contact with him, he told me that he “didn’t get” my calls or text messages. I then described the issues with the grout/caulk and without even seeing anything, he says that my house must have “shifted.” He told me he would call the next day to arrange looking at the issue but he never called me back. I will now have to come out of my pocket to resolve his shoddy work because he will not respond to any correspondence that I initiate. He is blatantly ignoring my calls so I'm forced to update my review. My issue now is that he is clearly not a man of his word, doesn't honor his contract and runs his business very unprofessionally. I now realize that there were red flags that I looked past throughout the process. These include him not returning to install shower shelves, installing a chipped piece of marble on the floor when there was plenty of tile to use, and him leaving several heavy bags of debris from the project in my garage when debris removal is included in his fee. Save yourself the headache, money and time and find a more reputable contractor. As a customer that gave him business during a global pandemic, I am very disappointed."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Hickory, red oak, white oak, and Brazilian walnut are among the most durable wood flooring options. Teakwood is extremely durable and known as one of the hardest woods. It holds up against weather and sunlight, but it’s costly and can be difficult to source. Keep durability in mind when installing floors for high-traffic areas in your home. 

The costs depend on the type of wood, labor, roofing material, permits, and whether additional storage or enclosed walls are included.

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

Building a wooden carport costs between $3,000 and $12,000, depending on size, materials, and custom features.

The minimum recommended height for a carport is 7 feet tall, but you might need a significantly taller carport to provide clearance for RVs, commercial trucks, or other tall vehicles. You can choose your carport height based on the clearance you need and how the carport looks in comparison to the height of your home. Just keep in mind that building regulations usually dictate a maximum carport height.
