"They did a great job. They rebuilt my closet, hung curtain rods, fixed a kitchen cabinet and drawers as well as a few other small projects. It was very reasonably priced and done quickly. I would definitely hire again."

"I hired Brett with BATCO to build two separate decks for my Airbnb properties. He arrived on time, and even though he bid me a certain number, the second deck took less time than expected and I ended up paying less than I was quoted. Brett did an outstanding job and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the outcome given the decks are exposed to heavy weather conditions like rain and snow. You can tell Brett is a professional and knows what he’s doing. It’s always comforting knowing you have a contractor who’s legit, licensed+insured. Couldn’t recommend BATCO more."

"Marco and his team framed my entire addition, installed a 30 foot long beam, built and installed the roof, and installed multiple large sliders and picture windows. Always on time, always did what he said he would. Kept everything very clean and cleaned up after. I can not recommend him enough. 10/10!"

Customers say: Terrific value

"Trustworthy. Reliable. Professional. Great Communication. Beautiful Transformation. Integrity. Honest. Very Reasonably Priced. Daniel Anderson of Anderson's Finish Carpentry is a highly skilled professional. He is a man of his word. He arrives early and finished the job on time. He left the worksite immaculately clean every evening. He is an excellent communicator; he kept me informed about the progress daily. He charged a very reasonable price and did even more than he was paid for, extra details make such a difference. He went above and beyond! He does the work himself and when he has an assistant, he supervised carefully. His name is on the work and he sees to it that every aspect of the job is done correctly and to my satisfaction. Daniel transformed our old dangerous disaster of a deck into a new beautiful place we can safely enjoy with our friends. From now on Daniel Anderson is our "go to guy" for all our woodworking projects and you should make him your guy too!"

"Sean Ireland was our designer/main contact and I can't say enough great things about him - he is not only friendly and very prompt in his communication but an A+ when is comes to design skills and creativity!  We had a few awkwardly placed outlets and he found very creative workarounds to get us beautiful looking pieces that were incredibly functional too.   And I'll be the first to admit that I was not the easiest to work with - I changed my mind several times and went back on forth on many details - Sean never got frustrated with me and I'm SO happy with the end product!  The pieces look beautiful and are very great quality as well.  Overall, we are VERY happy with the outcome!

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.
