"Excellent! I showed them a picture of what look I was going for. The owner takes the time to listen to your input and then makes suggestions based on his experience. It is definitely a collaboration between the carpenter and the homeowner. They show up on time and take pride in their work and it shows in the end result. This was actually the 2nd job they did on my house. The first visit was crown moulding and and framing out the front entry door w/ decorative moulding. I will definitely use them for future carpentry needs."

"I had my new refrigerator delivered and it would not fit under the cabinet. I contacted Angie and almost immediately, Mr. Falco, Bruce Falco Carpentry, Inc. contacted me. He did an excellent job in a timely manner with an affordable price. He was professional, knowledgeable and actually cared about doing the job right! I would highly recommend him!"

"I contacted June to repair a wood chair.  The chair seat had broken on one side and my husband had tried to install a long screw to fix it.  The screw was stuck in the wood frame sticking out about 3 inches.  I brought them the chair on Wednesday and they called Friday to say it was done.  It looks new and the seat and chair frame are now sturdy.  After installing the screws they had put a plug over the screw to hide it- it matched the other screw heads perfectly.  June even went above and beyond by using a wood marker on a couple of scratches on the chair.  (One word of caution for those using their service - they are fantastic but their door is immediately next to another furniture store and if you drop there accidentally another provider will fix your chair.  Jim will claim you said "JIm" and not that you were looking for "June".  Make sure you ask if you are in Family Furniture when you drop off.)

"Very well! This was a trial 2 hour job to see how AFE performs. I used an Angie's list coupon. Angel from AFE contacted me quickly. We met a few days later based on our schedules. He showed up exactly on time. I had him replace a kitchen faucet and then he helped me to remove an old window and fan assembly from the 2nd story of the house. I enjoyed working with him, and was impressed with his level of experience and ability to discuss/do everything from plumbing, to carpentry, to electrical work. I am planning to give him more jobs."

"Excellent service. Fencing on back order but we were kept updated on status. Once installation scheduled crew arrived on time and never even took break until job was done. Very professional and efficient. Have also used this company several other times for electrical and carpentry work with 5-star results."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

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.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

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.
