"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."

"I am blown away with the results of our new backyard. Unfortunately I lost my husband and the father of my three young children in September 2023. Colorado Custom Landscaping worked with me on renovating my backyard so me, my kids and animals had a nice place to play and spend time with low maintenance. My backyard was transformed with new turf, a new paver patio/drive so my kids can ride their bikes and under-deck chicken coop! We can play outside barefoot and spend most of our day playing in the backyard. I was impressed by how friendly and professional the crew was and how quickly and diligently Colorado Custom Landscaping finished our new backyard. The results were so much more than I could've imagined and me and my family couldn't be more pleased. They worked with me given our situation on pricing and showed the upmost compassion, respect, and professionalism. I will never use another company again for any landscaping/building projects. Thank you Colorado Custom Landscaping!"

"Mark and his team were wonderful - they removed popcorn ceiling, painted the interior of our home including trim and doors, removed some old tile and installed wainscotting - they did it all! They were professional, hard working, communicative and did a BEAUTIFUL job on our home. We are so appreciative to Mark and his crew for all of their hard work."

"The men that did the work related to the prepping the yard for the retaining wall, placing the rock and pavers for the walkway did a very good job and it really looked nice. I've worked in construction and building maintenance for over 50 years, so I know what's good workmanship and what's poor. The worker who did the framing for the new sidewalk, steps and porch was poor workmanship. Nothing was level or straight and I had to have the other crew correct the forms before concrete was poured. The guys that finished the concrete did an excellent job. Never let D&D workers connect the lawn sprinkler piping to your house water piping. They seem to be handymen, not real plumbers. Beside not installing necessary valves and fittings to winterizing the sprinkler system, all the copper pipe was installed crooked, under stress and not supported correctly. Overall, half the crew did very good work, the other half needs training."

"Pursley Contracting was prompt, efficient and kept me informed on the progress of the project. Additionally, they cleaned up the area around the fences and took the debris away. An excellent job well done."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.

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.

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

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.
