"Matt does excellent work, is a true professional and an overall great guy! I'm a contractor and have worked with many carpenters and cabinet installers over the years. I can say working with Matt is a pleasure and the quality of his work is meticulous. Some of the cabinets I received for this project were the wrong size. Matt was very flexible and went the extra mile to finish the install as soon as the correct cabinets were delivered. He also installed wainscoting for me in a difficult bathroom and the finished product was fantastic. I highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for high quality finish carpentry work."

"Gio and his team were phenomenal. Not only did he knock out the framing in a good window of time but he went above and beyond to recommend contractors for the following work I needed. Gio was involved in every step of the process and was there while we got inspection done for permits and worked with the inspectors even providing explanation where my knowledge couldn't. Having Gio easily saved 3-4 weeks on hiring other contractors, permits & inspection. And overall project deadlines. This team is a master in the work they provide and overall care they give to your home"

"I first hired Daniel and his team to scrape my front yard to get it ready for spring planting, and to plant four new trees. They did such a good job, I was thrilled to hire them right away to build a new retaining wall in my 100-year old house basement. They worked within the timeframe I needed them to, as I also was working with another company to replace my furnace. The wall came out better than I could have imagined! When I had some leakage problems with my sprinkler system, they came and worked on that, as well as replaced an old valve. They went above and beyond on my multiple projects. Daniel and his team are pros! I highly recommend them and look forward to using their services again! Thank you D&D!"

Very professional and friendly and would definitely hire again. Glad to have a trustworthy, skilled professional to call."

"I have been a landlord in Highlands Ranch, Colorado for over 20 years. I have worked with a lot of professionals and handyman throughout those years. Tim is just an incredible professional. I had him install 2 chandeliers in my home (one even 20 feet tall) and he had it all done in 3 hours including the time to rent a large latter to reach the ceiling. His work is top notch and he is just so easy to work with. He has earned all my future renovation and repair work. Thank you Tim for all your hard work! You are awesome!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.
