"Scottie and his team were excellent! They stayed in budget and worked with us every step of the way. Scottie and his team replaced all of our vinyl siding with Hardie Board. They also upgraded all of our windows with Premium Argon filled windows and finished our back covered deck. Scottie has formed business relationships with building supply companies to ensure that you have maximum savings with your project; and even encouraged you to price shop. Hands down, utilizing his recommended suppliers saved us thousands of dollars. If you want quality work at a great price point, you won't be disappointed. Remember to be involved and communicate with Scottie. He is easy to talk with, so take time and be proactive. He will appreciate it and so will you."

"We hired Mark to build a screen porch with sunspace 3 season windows and it was a great decision. The craftsmanship is perfection. From the design to the build, we were truly impressed. It was a first class experience and good value for the money spent too!"

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

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. 

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.
