"We could not recommend James and Precision Carpentry strongly enough. He asked all the right questions and truly listened to our answers. His bid was more than fair and he quickly adapted as we kept changing our mind about finishes, added requests and final details. He did great at communicating via both phone and text messaging and was always available to answer questions and concerns. His final pricing came perfectly in line with the bid. Long story short - I have recommended him to others looking for a remodeler and fully expect to use him again on future work in our home, 5 stars."

"We hired A&R to remove six of our overgrown and neglected trees. They walked our yard and pointed out current issues as well as potential. The quote was more than fair and work was quality. Professional company would definitely recommend."

"I had a plumber redo pipes which were clogged, by word of mouth. I hired Harley’s DOUBLE G ENTERPRISES, to repair what the plumbers broke. This young man was respectful, he made sure to do what we wanted. I would hire this man again. Only one thing I would do is ask that he covers my floors with plastic so not track concrete dust across my floors. Otherwise he’s awesome. Carol."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

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.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
