"I hired Joe to measure out and install a new custom storm door for my house. During the process some significant rot of the door frame and exterior window frame was discovered. Joe was very transparent, detailed and vigilant in resolving the issue. He fixed up all the rot and got the new door installed successfully and it looks unbelievable. Not only would I hire him again, I already have. Very glad to have found Joe for my home project needs."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

There are some rules regarding how far your exterior bump-out can go. For a cantilever bump-out that avoids the need to provide additional structural support, the limit is often 24 inches. However, if a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can encompass a whole room or more. Remember that many residential properties are subject to limits regarding the total house size relating to the size of the lot. 

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes wall damage, but some holes for anchors or brackets are necessary for secure attachment. These can be easily patched if the bed is removed in the future, leaving your walls looking like new. Hiring a professional Murphy bed installer helps ensure minimal and repairable impact.
