"Does an amazing job. We had a large deck built onto our house.Very professional, always showed up on time. Price was very fair, especially for the quality of craftsmanship. He does not cut corners to rush anything. You can tell he takes a lot of pride in what he builds. Deck turned out perfect, built to last and very sturdy. Would highly recommend."

"Chris did more than just a fence. While he was here he also stained our log cabin home and he explained when we would need to stain it again, he didn't just build a beautiful fence around my home but he also built one around the ac unit to keep my dog out, also he help me on small task out of his kindess: move a cement block out of the way of the fence that I couldn't lift, make a hole for my chicken coop so the lamp cord would go though, and he even cared about how to explain for everything how to maintain thre fence for it to last for years. Chris and his dad are really kind hearted people who care about the quality of work they do. My husband and I both adore their character and them as people. We are planning to have them back for soon future projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

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.

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.
