"We hired this company to build a new deck at our home, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. From the first consultation to the final walkthrough, they were professional, and very easy to work with. They helped us choose the best design for our space, kept us informed throughout the project, and completed the work on schedule. I would highly recommend them."

Growing up in an automotive restoration shop while helping rebuild homes for my uncle, a property developer, taught me the value of craftsmanship, attention to detail, and doing things the right way. I've developed a passion for restoring and improving just about anything, always going above and beyond to ensure every project is completed with the same care and pride as if it were my own. My goal is simple: deliver quality work that's built to last.

Hi, I’m Jeffrey Brown. I’m a retired Navy Chief Warrant Officer with over 22 years of experience in leadership, operations, and managing teams. I spent the last several years managing aviation ordnance operations, where safety, accountability, and getting the job done right were critical.\nI’ve had a lot of experience leading people, solving problems, improving processes, and working in fast-paced environments. I’m now looking to take those skills into the private sector, and I’m excited about the opportunity to help you through Angi!

Woodworking 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. 

Landscape timbers can last 10 to 20 years in the ground when installed correctly. Pressure-treated timbers will last longer than non-treated ones, as pressure treatment makes the wood more rot-resistant. Wood exposed to high moisture levels or extreme temperature and weather fluctuations may not last as long as wood in drier areas with more consistent weather.

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.

Before hiring a carpenter, the most important thing is to make sure they are properly qualified and insured for the job. It’s more than reasonable to ask your prospective carpenter for customer references, as well as about their licensing and insurance. You should also consider choosing a carpenter that specializes in your specific project area to ensure high-quality results. 

While the Arts and Crafts movement inspired many architectural elements, the primary styles from the time include Craftsman, Tudor Revivals, bungalows, and Mission homes. You'll see elements of these styles in homes, churches, museums, and schools—particularly Country Day schools from the era.
