"Superior quality of work! Awesome crew! Dependable! Timely! Priced well! This is the third time we've used Casa Grande, and we've recommended them to our friends (who've also been very pleased). They're very professional and easy to work with. They're honest to a fault. Our first project was a major house renovation for my daughter, including shoring up unlevel floors on the 2nd floor, removing a load bearing wall, building a new staircase, reconstructing new floors that had rotted, and painting throughout the house. Our second project was building a new deck at our house. Our third project included installing tile floors in four rooms, installing a storm door, and painting throughout my mother's house. In all three projects, we were completely satisfied and very happy with the results. You simply will not find a better contractor and construction crew. They're the best!!"

"Mr. Keith did an amazing job closing in our garage and building shelves and cabinets for us! They turned out beautiful! Way more than I ever expected. He did other projects for us as well. We were simply amazed with the quality of his work. Mr. Keith was very friendly and kind. He would take time out of his day to talk to my children and our family dogs. If I ever had a question, he was willing to stop what he was doing to fully answer. We definitely recommend Mr. Keith!"

"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"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.
