"My husband had been hospitalized for 2 1/2 months, and we were needing a handicap ramp installed at our house. Mr. Freeman (Kurt) responded quickly to our request and provided professional insight regarding ADA compliance and the best materials for our needs. He and his carpenter, James, always arrived on time and the ramp exceeded our expectations, it ties in great with our house and yard. We also needed handrails on our front porch so my husband could maneuver the two steps, Kurt and James installed them; the handrails were more work than expected (and not part of the original plan) but they persevered. I wanted this project to be completed so my husband could be home for his birthday, 9 May, he is being discharged tomorrow, Friday, 8 May. Thanks, Kurt for making this po FreemanMade LLC. is a phenomenal company who listens to your concerns and works to give you the best products and prices. We would definitely recommend him for ALL your projects!"

"Taylor was on time, professional, and clearly skilled. He completed the work efficiently and was open to looking at a few additional projects while he was here. I appreciated that he shared his areas of expertise, so I knew what to plan for in the future. He was clean-cut, respectful, and I felt completely comfortable having him in my home. I will definitely hire him again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

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.
