"I had an outdoor playground set. Adrian was professional and hard-working. Great communication and he brought all the required tools and equipment. He showed up first thing in the morning on a short notice and it was all done before the end of the day. The assembly looks great and I know the kids will love it!"

"They did a good job of gutter cleaning and deck washing on a 16-suite medical office building, and Rolando was very informative about what the crew was doing and why. He quoted me the added cost to install stainless-steel gutter guard screens, which I had them do while on the job. These screens are a bit pricey, but it seems to be a good quality product and they did excellent work."

"Mark was able to start my job quickly and did a terrific job, and at a good price too. We had water damage in two rooms. He fixed the plumbing, rebuilt and tiled the floors, and more. We went from a big problem to a remodeled bathroom and laundry room. Thanks Mark."

"We found McCormick home builders through Angie’s list. They were not one of our original contacts, but they contacted us and came out to give us a quote. Matteo was extremely helpful, informative, honest, and gave us reasonable realistic prices, and did not try to inflate the prices or pressure us in anyway. We felt very comfortable with him immediately. We felt like he was a member of the family that we could just talk to and ask questions he was very personable. He gave us his contact number in case we had other questions and he was always available when we needed him for any type of questions or concerns. Mateo‘s team did a beautiful job. They were fast. They were efficient. They cleaned up beautifully. They did a wonderful job. They were very considerate of our time our needs and our neighbors. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Matteo from McCormick home builders for any home building projects, and we will be calling him again in the future!"

"Very efficient and responsive, and high quality work and expertise. I needed to hire a carpenter to modify the kitchen cabinet height space for a new refrigerator to replace an older refrigerator that had stopped working. So it was a critical need, and during the holidays. I got a text back immediately and Eddie came to assess the space the next day. A week later, as soon as l made the new refrigerator purchase and therefore knew the measurements, l texted the specs and they were able to schedule the work for the next morning. It looks beautiful and the new refrigerator fits perfectly! I learned more about the cabinets and it was a bit more complicated than it appeared since there was some extra layers of wood to cut—they did a beautiful job! I will definitely give Mighty Works a call for my next project!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

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

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off.
