"Southern Rust Woodworks has the best custom built products around. I have several pieces he has made for me, and I get asked all the time who did them and how to contact him. He can make anything you want! Or if you donâ t have an idea, he has great ideas himself. My house is basically a Southern Rust Woodworks showcase. Love all my pieces and they are excellent quality. Love all his products!!!"

"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"

"Other than complete deck replacement, I had an area of siding replaced as well as the trim boards and the door casing. Randy is honest and knowledgeable in all aspects of construction and remodeling. He was transparent and all of the work was first rate!"

"I have one side of my house that has been prone to cracking since I became homeowner 12 1/2 years ago. I have had the cracks repaired to varying degrees only to return. I saw a neighbor that hired South Coast Plastering and Stucco and they told me they were very satisfied. William Stewart came to my home while working on the neighbor's and measured. He promptly quoted the work with a military discout. He included a few other items I requested in the quote. He seemed to cover a range of skillsets which I appreciated. He was the first contractor to suggest adding expansion joints every 12 feet to restrict future cracking. I had enough information from him to realize he was honest and experienced. I did not get the work done when I originally wanted to start but we worked out a start date in the spring. I was surprised at how many in the crew showed up to get the job started. Building the scaffolding, pressure washing etc. The crew was very courteous and careful with keeping the job site clean. The job was done in three days. Rather impressive for an 80x14 wall with several other smaller jobs. William came back to my home a couple weeks later to inspect the job (and give me a t-shirt!). He noticed some areas that need to be retouched, including some cracks near my front door I did not know I had. He said he would send someone back in the next week to correct the small punch list of items and fix the small cracks on the other side of my house. I have nothing but good things to say about William Stewart and Ashley Heaton. You can trust they will get the job done correctly and do everything they can to satisfy you."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

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.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.
