"In addition to his masonry expertise, Ronald did an excellent job preparing our large spa pool for summer use and repairing the wood surround. I have also hired him to repair some Belgian Block curbing and secure paved stairs."

"I wish there were more stars to give to Carlos. He’s not only an excellent human being, but also an exceptional carpenter and magician as well. His attention to detail is simply amazing, his workmanship is impressive and the quality of his work outstanding. The piece of furniture I needed him to build wasn’t overly difficult, but when we realized the condition of the wall and the floor around it might make it more complicated - he still worked his magic and made it all work-out beautifully. He always comes accompanied by his wife, Ines, and they are both the nicest, hardest working people I have ever met. A joy to work with...A rare find these days. I just want to have more projects so I can call them again!!!"

"I hired Adam and his team to frame and install my new kitchen including framing out a new pantry in a very difficult space as well as install a slider and reconfigure some walls. I am so pleased with the result. His attention to detail and work ethic are a rare find. I would recommend anyone needing any carpentry, framing, windows and doors work to contact him, you will not be disappointed."

"Nixon provides great service in a timely manner. He and his crew were efficient, polite and respectful of the areas they worked in. They performed carpentry work that was excellent and quickly solved a roofing and sealing/painting issue for me. Nixon was responsive by phone and showed up when he said he was going to each time. His pricing was a bit on the high side and you get what you pay for. I will definitely be calling on Nixon and his crew again for future work."

"We had two homes and a garage which needed painting. We posted the job on Home Advisor and Fernando answered within 15 minutes. He came to our property that day, and sent us a very reasonable quote which was less than what another contractor had quoted us. Fernando's plentiful reviews on Home Advisor were ALL 5-star, so we felt comfortable in hiring him. Fernando was able to start the job within a couple of days, and worked with our schedule. He provided paint samples of quality paint for us to see the actual colors we liked on the exteriors. He was patient as we decided. His crew of Louis, Marco and Marcado were affable, friendly and hard-working. They even were willing to work on a Sunday and long hours to finish the job in time. Fernando always put a smile on our faces with his upbeat attitude and positive manner. We hired him to do other projects while there including repairing some stone work on a chimney, stripping wallpaper and interior painting, and putting on an exterior door. It seems Fernando and his team can do anything. Fernando always answered our calls and emails promptly, and said we could contact him up until about midnight. Fernando is a dream to work with. We think he should change his company name to Happy Home Painting and Projects - because Fernando is always happy and his work makes you happy. My husband is an engineer, and has always done our painting and construction projects. He is meticulous, and has an experienced eye. Fernando even made my husband happy, which makes me happy. We had a pizza party to celebrate our beautiful painted homes and garage with Fernando and his team. Fernando and his guys feel like family after knowing them a short time. We look forward on doing more projects with Fernando and Company. You will not be disappointed if you hire Fernando. He says his goal is to make you happy with his work. And he does!"

"Joseph and his crew did a great job painting the interior of the house and doing some minor drywall repairs. Also installed some closet shelving. Entire job was done quickly and completed ahead of schedule. I expect to be hiring again for some other work in the future."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

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.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.
