"We recently had custom built-in bookshelves designed and installed by CT Yankee Crafts, and we couldn't be happier. From start to finish, the experience was an absolute pleasure. Nick was very communicative throughout the whole process, and he listened to our vision, then translated it onto paper and then into a beautiful masterpiece and a focal point in our new home. The best part is filling them up! Watching our book collection find its new home on these gorgeous, sturdy shelves has been so satisfying. It has completely transformed the room into a cozy sanctuary. Highly recommended for any custom woodwork!"

"My wife and I have an architect-designed Trelleborg house, which we had built in 1991 with components imported from Denmark, Sweden and Germany. The roof is Danish concrete tile, and after the severe storm in late August damaged our roof and one skylight, we used Home Advisor to locate a contractor who could handle the repairs, and were fortunate to have All Brothers contact us. We are still working with Jani and Chucki to finalize the details of the project, and Phil performed a temporary repair that gives us time to acquire the necessary components. Thus far we are extremely pleased with their skills and the way they do business. After looking for years for a company that can work competently on a European tile roof, we have finally found a group of traditionally-trained craftsmen who are knowledgeable, responsible and articulate. I am confident that All Brothers will maintain the integrity of our house, which was designed to be energy-efficient and built with non-VOC components, and trust them completely. In addition to their building skills, it's notable that you can always get in contact with them: their receptionist is unfailingly polite and helpful, and if you give them a call anytime someone will either answer the phone immediately or else get back to you in minutes. I recommend All Brothers in the highest possible terms."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.
