"I had the team do some work for me a few months ago and they did superior work. This job was an exterior job. The estimate that was quoted was fair and they beat the timeliness as well. There were no issues with the work and they even pointed out some quality things that I overlooked. They will be my contractors moving forward on ANY job."

"Chris did a fantastic job!  I love my new kitchen cabinets!  I had late 80s or early 90s "pink pickled wood" cabinets.  Chris sanded, primed and professionally painted my cabinets.  He does the base cabinets and drawers on site.  He removes the cabinet doors, and takes them to his shop to spray off site.  He delivered the doors back to me the following week, as promised.  
Also, I have a Kitchen Aid refrigerator with the wooden panel insets.  Chris painted the doors to match my kitchen cabinets, for far less than buying new inserts from Kitchen Aid.
He always was punctual, friendly and a true professional.  He would always call or text and let me know when he'd be back, etc.
I would definitely have Chris back again, and probably will.

"The workers arrive on time, work until the job is finished in a professional and attentive manner. I had no problem with trust issues since I went to work allowing access to my house with no problems. The work is done to your satisfaction without complaint. I have used other contractors and spent many a day waiting for someone not to arrive as promised. This will not happen with this company."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

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. 

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.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.
