"This job was to replace an old bathtub with a walk-in shower. I highly recommend them for your next project. The crew is professional and responsible. Clean up was exceptional. You will not be disappointed with the workmanship. The shower is lovely and price was reasonable. I would choose them again for any project."

"We hire Nick to remove moss from our roof. He did a great job and charged more than a fair price. He was polite and a good communicator. I will hire him for work we have in the future."

Customers say: True professional

"Ken just did my windows. Wow! What a difference. Ken does a great job on anything I asked him to do. Give him a try. You won’t be sorry. Ken did some snow removal from my deck and driveway entrance. Did a beautiful job. Needed a doggy door installed. I thought I could do it myself. But I couldn’t. I called Ken and he put it together for me. He even set up a lock so it stays secure. I like it and so does Princess."
Using a hose with a nozzle, ladders, brushes and gloves, I removed tree debris from the gutters on this single story residence.
Great looking house.
The plow truck blocked my client in leaving her now way out. I quickly cleared a road in and proceeded to the front door.
Heavy snow removal work up on a roof top.
This is what the project looked like just after paint went on.

"We are just finishing up a 2nd story deck install with Dynamic Decks. The whole process was tremendous. From evaluating the tear down, to clearly going through the process of installing a quality and lasting deck, through the installation. Everyone was professional, they preformed quality craftmanship and everything was done in a timely manner. I highly recommend their work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

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.
