"Master MCG was unable to do the job until April .However, Master MCG did me a huge favor when I asked if he could please refer me to another carpenter. He referred me to Jesse Miranda of Artistic Wood, LLC who was able to take on the job immediately, and he brought in a second carpenter (Joe Yost) and they did an excellent job, for a reasonable price. Jesse was also very good at finding solutions and tweaking things to work/fit, etc. I would hire both Master MCG and Jesse (and Joe) again."

"Bob mixed his carpentry skills with his creativity and built a custom dining table and four stools to match for me. He was very communicative throughout the whole design process and his attention to detail did not go unnoticed. My table is the center point of my space and I couldnâ t be happier with the craftsmanship or the customer service. Thanks, Bob!"

"I hired Bruce at Live Edge Vail to create a custom, live edge bar top to replace an existing counter in a clients new home in Steamboat Springs. We had been working with another vendor who opted out of the project after going back and forth for several weeks. As disappointed as we were in that situation it really all worked out to our benefit when we found Bruce. He was extremely professional, had an abundance of expertise and created exactly what I had envisioned for my client. Bruce worked within our time frame and installed within several weeks of our initial consultation. The end result is a stunning centerpiece to the room and I have a very appreciative and happy client. Honestly, could not recommend Bruce and Live Edge Vail enough."

A huge shoutout to Francisco—he was absolutely amazing to work with. He truly listened to what I wanted and offered expert advice that made the final result even better than I imagined. Thank you for the great work!"

"We are very pleased from start to finish with our experience with Elevate Decks (Clint). He was our fourth quote and was well below the price points of the other contractors. Not only was the price much lower than the rest, but the quality of workmanship showed from top to bottom. Integrity and honesty is a must for us and he delivered. The attention to details was spot on. Since we were impressed with the whole project we decided to go with him on our second step down deck also. If you need a deck done Elevate Decks is the clear winner."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.
