"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 questions, answered by experts

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

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.
