We've been 35 years in business. We have a diverse design sensibility to match your tastes. We do kitchens, living rooms, family rooms, additions, whole house renovations and offices. We also do custom woodworks: furniture, kitchen cabinets and builtins. You can commission custom woodworks at our fully equipped wood shop in Sand City. In designing for your home, business or performance space, we find the right look to fit your character and tastes, integrated with cost effective "green" solutions. I'm hands-on in every project! We've also spent years designing and building sets for live theater. We bring a good sense of how to design a good setting for the play of your life.

"Going through a whole house renovation was not an easy journey, but Nick closely collaborated with us and helped us realize a vision. Nick did not only bring to the table his general contractor experience but his knowledge and skills in space planning, interior and structural designs were equally important. The sub-contractors he hired were experts in their craft and did a wonderful job. The end result is a home that is not only comfortable and beautiful but also reflects our lifestyle and personality. Thank you, Nick, and the crew."

"Unreliable. He gave an offer and I prepared a draft contract. He asked for changes and clarifications. Changes to extend time frame from 60 to 90 days accepted and clarifications provided. Even include an extra 30 days as buffer. The only thing left was to sign a contract. Doesn't respond to messages or phone calls. Looks like a nice and knowledgeable person, but doesn't like to be held responsible for the work and timings."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can hammer a nail into a wall stud. But before you do, it’s important to confirm that you’re actually nailing into a stud—and not wiring, pipes, or ductwork. To check, find a few more studs in the wall, then measure to make sure they’re either 16 or 24 inches apart.

Not all wood that’s been softened by termites needs to be replaced. You may be able to salvage wood using a wood hardener instead of replacing beams. However, you’ll need to hire a structural engineer to assess the damage and the overall stability of the wood before making a replacement plan.

The best way to determine if ceiling cracks are structural is to hire a ceiling contractor to inspect the cracks and provide a professional opinion. That said, you might be able to make an educated guess based on the size and appearance of the crack. Larger cracks, cracks accompanied by sagging or discoloration, and cracks that travel from the ceiling down the walls are all signs of structural issues.

The cost to repair a deck is between $900 and $3,500, depending on the cause and extent of the damage. For example, fixing a sinking deck caused by pest damage can cost between $200 and $600, while replacing sinking boards costs between $500 and $4,000.

If nail pops in your drywall aren't fixed, there can be consequences to the structure of your home and the aesthetics of the room. Nail pops may loosen or weaken drywall and may be less effective at providing support and insulation, ultimately requiring more extensive repairs or replacement in the future. If not fixed, the blemish will become increasingly unsightly over time, potentially leading to further damage as raised areas easily catch on objects or clothing.
