"A Tornado blew thru my street. All the fences were down and some entirely missing. I needed my fences and gates replaced. I chose Matt not only for the good price but his professionalism. He went beyond any contractor Iâ ve ever used. His work was absolutely Top Notch. He showed up on time and stayed late to beat the weather. He made a few suggestions that I never would have thought of. I canâ t say enough about Matt Bradford. My neighbors saw the work and wanted his information. Beyond the acre of fences and gates, he did another project for me building a deck and stairs to my upper garage level. It came out like a designer showcase. Iâ ll be posting it on google reviews. Very reasonable price. And his work puts all the others to shame. Heâ s a true craftsman. Everything he did for me was far far above my expectations. To say he did great work is an understatement. Heâ s absolutely the first person to call. You wonâ t be disappointed with Matt. 5 Stars PLUS! I have more projects that I will only use Matt for. Heâ s that good."

"The team at WA Construction exceeded our expectations. Within a three-week timeframe, they were able to remove a damaged screened-in porch and replace it with one of superior quality (while staying within our budget). They were courteous and did a great job keeping us informed every step of the way. Stop scrolling and hire these guys!"

"He did an absolutely fantastic job replacing our old deck. He was punctual, responsive, easy to work with, very fast, and our deck turned out beautifully. Absolutely will be asking him back to do other projects in the future because of how great of a job he did. Very, very happy and will be recommending him to all our neighbors!"

"Richard Arnold sent a young associate named Tom who had extensive repair experience with 3-D as well as previous industrial experience. Tom did an excellent job welding my badly broken 3-point- hitch, tractor grader blade. I know welding but have never bought the equipment. My Dad taught welding as a vocational agricultural high school teacher. Besides a good repair at a fair price both Richard and Tom were personable and easy to work with."

"They did a good job. I was just hoping it would stop my wood floors from creaking but they are worse. Overall believe the work done will be good for the house support though"

"Excellent service! I hired the company to paint my two-story home, both inside and outside, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very beginning, they were extremely professional, reliable, and careful. They paid attention to even the smallest details, protected all the work areas, and made sure everything was left clean with a high-quality finish. You can truly see the pride and commitment they put into their work. I definitely recommend them 100% to anyone looking for professional, reliable, and high-quality painting services. Five stars well deserved!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
