"Fred LaMarre may be the best finish carpenter that I've ever used, and his crew is equally meticulous and exacting. I had spent nearly four hundred dollars on having some ostentatious, oversized corner blocks custom fashioned from northern California. Although I was hell-bent on using them, Fred gently talked me off of the ledge by convincing me that they were simply too ornate for the style of our home-- which tuned out to be an excellent call. We had nearly 500 linear feet of M45 five-and-a-quarter inch crown; Fred cut and coped it with absolute precision, after which his team caulked & painted it without issue (including the "great room" with its sixteen-foot ceilings.) I would recommend Ri-Tan, without reservation, to anyone desiring high-quality finish carpentry."

"The contractors from Handyman by Henderson were prompt, courteous, knowledgable craftsmen, who paid attention to minor details when finishing the job. They did an excellent job in changing out our old wood and replacing the dormer with vapor barrier protection and hardyboard."

"Apex Paint and Repair did an amazing job on a few jobs I had around the house. They not only did it in a timely and orderly fashion, but they were also very polite and attentive while doing their job. They cleaned up each day after working and never left anything a mess. They also are very fair on their prices. I will be using them again for any other jobs that I will need done around the house and suggesting them to my neighbors. Thank you again guys!"

"Roman Empire Builders i found here and i seen his reviews and decided to call for some estimates. We own 3 properties one that we had to evict someone and we kept getting some very high unreasonably seeming prices and couldn't find great references from some guys, but every reference we got from Roman was nothing but he's the best he does any kind of work that you throw at him so he came by we told him if the price we get on our first house looks good and the price is right I have two other houses that need a few things done. So first job we had him and his sons rebuild our second story deck that a tree had slammed into from hurricane Helena and he not only did he build it perfectly to Code but he painted it for us for only a extra $150 which was so kind. So I gave him a remodle I needed done from a recent eviction that the sub floor was out of wack and his 2 son's worked nonstop the laminate the drywall and texture and floor all perfect. Worth every penny 100% best guy on here for s"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
