"Garry did an exemplary job from start-to-finish. Provided detailed estimate of work plan and cost for each section of wood rot repair and for door repair, with a breakdown of labor and material costs. Performed the work flawlessly and meticulously - carpentry, caulking, painting, etc over a 5-day period."

"Ron uses USA wood rather than cheaper imported wood. He paints/stains the fence with a sprayer which provides a solid color. He does what he says he will do and did not require any payment until his work was finished."

"This is to express my wife and I sincere appreciation for the exceptional work Mark Daly and the family owned business ( DALY STONE DESIGN. LLP ) recently completed on the remodeling of our living room fireplace. Our initial consultation with Mark (owner) we felt a genuine connection and trust, Mark and his entire team professionalism combined with your evident dedication to quality craftsmanship put our minds at ease throughout the entire process. Finally, the fireplace is a showstopper. It has completely modernized our living room and has become a favorite gathering spot for our family, We were very fortunate to have had Mark as our contractor and are happy to serve as a reference for any future clients."

"Joseph and Ron did an EXCELLENT job working on a variety of projects at my house over the course of several weeks. Custom shelving, vinyl siding, door install, trim, baseboard work, and more. Not only are Joseph and Ron committed to completing work to a high standard, they are both enjoyable nd trustworthy people. They won't leave the job until it is done right, which seems to be a rare quality these days. If you need just about any work done at your home, your search is over, you have found the right people!"

"We hired CCR to remodel our bathroom and install new flooring throughout the house. We could not have been more thrilled with the results. The work was completed on time, with attention to detail and quality craftsmanship. The bathroom looks fantastic, and the flooring transformed the space beautifully. Great communication throughout, and the project was within our budget. Highly recommend Adam!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Wooden soffits, when properly cared for, can last between 10 and 25 years, depending on the type of wood and the climate you live in. Certain wood types will last longer than others, and you might want to consider the cost of replacing soffits when you break down the total project cost. While an initially higher-priced material might seem counterintuitive, it can make more financial sense if you don’t plan on moving. 

On average, the cost to hire a carpenter ranges from about $75 to $100 per hour, depending on the type of carpentry, location, size of the job, and skill level of the carpenter. Get quotes from at least three carpenters in your area to determine the best price for your specific project.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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.

Before hiring a carpenter, the most important thing is to make sure they are properly qualified and insured for the job. It’s more than reasonable to ask your prospective carpenter for customer references, as well as about their licensing and insurance. You should also consider choosing a carpenter that specializes in your specific project area to ensure high-quality results.
