"What can I say, other than.... David at Home Front is the best!! David recently completed two projects in preparation for a new exterior paint job on my home later this summer. The first project was after an exterior inspection, some window trims and door moldings needed to be replaced before painting. Upon removal, additional work would be necessary to repair some hidden damages, including some siding boards being replaced. David was very helpful explaining the issues, the resolutions, and the steps necessary to make the repairs. He made the necessary repairs promptly, professionally, and the quality of his craftsmanship was evident. Even the neighbors would stop by and comment on his quality workmanship. The second project was concerning the same issues, but on an older deck attached onto the back of the home. There were many scenarios being considered - making the necessary repairs, making the repairs and completely replacing all the wooden boards with composite, or a complete enlargement redesign and rebuild. David was very helpful explaining each scenario and the proposals to accomplish each separate task. With his guidance, the decision was made to replace and to expand the deck space. What a great decision!! Thank you David. David is a true professional and his craftsmanship is truly remarkable. We were very fortunate to have David working for us and looking forward to the possibility of future projects. For those of you reading this review, have some friendly advice, hire David, you won't be disappointed!!"

"I had a very pleasant experience with the contractors. I felt safe leaving them in my home unattended. They did a quality job at a reasonable price. They kept the job site cleaned up at the end of the work day.. I’m very happy with the work that was done and I will use them again hopefully in the near future! I love my new bathroom floor!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.
