"Kurt did a great job and was very efficient. He was able to repair all rot, and at a fraction of the cost of several other estimates. He repaired several window frames and replaced some of the baseboards. I was worried about having to replace siding, but only one small piece had to be replaced. Kurt is a great contractor and is very reliable and honest. We are planning to hire him to do more work on the back of our house."

"Timber and his crew were great! We needed flooring installed very quickly because we were moving in. He was so helpful picking up the flooring at the store and coming on the weekend and working all day. The floors came out great! He also made a kitchen island for us and was able to save the granite top. He’s open to helping around the house for other odd jobs too. Very reasonable prices too! Thanks Timber!"

"The owner was very professional, easy to work with. His crew was top notch and did a great job. As with all contractor work, schedule can be impacted by weather and manpower issues that come up, so it’s important to have patience and expect your job may run behind schedule a bit. Bottom line: This contractor got the job done and my deck looks great! — Happy customer"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

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, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them.
