"Andrew did an excellent job building our deck. From start to finish he worked efficiently and with remarkable attention to every detail. He kept us informed of his process throughout the project and always made us aware of his schedule. Not only is his workmanship exemplary but he performs his craft with a friendly yet professional attitude. We feel very fortunate to have found such a talented craftsman."

"Jonny was prompt and worked diligently until finished. I was amazed at how clean he was able to get my driveway. Even the bad oil spot was clean as new. The handrail is beautifully stained and very secure. Also, his prices were very fair. I will definitely call him again."

"Southern Rust Woodworks has the best custom built products around. I have several pieces he has made for me, and I get asked all the time who did them and how to contact him. He can make anything you want! Or if you donâ t have an idea, he has great ideas himself. My house is basically a Southern Rust Woodworks showcase. Love all my pieces and they are excellent quality. Love all his products!!!"

"Eugenio did a BEAUTIFUL job restoring two precious pieces of furniture that have been in my family for over 100+ years. This furniture had been neglected for generations and was in very bad condition (broken, moldy, etc.). I thought there was no hope for restoration and was afraid it would have to be thrown away. My restored furniture was delivered yesterday and I could not believe how beautiful the furniture looks. An amazing job by someone with true talent and a love of antiques. Eugenio took 5 more pieces of furniture to restore for me. I can’t wait to see the results."

"Mr. Jon was very professional and very punctual, he kept me in the loop as he repaired my bathroom floor that was sinking in from a previous leak from around the toilet. He has done two jobs for me at one time, due to he had to pull the toilet up from the floor, and afterward finishing the floor. he had to put the commode back in place and he put a new wax ring on that for me so it wouldn't leak again. On top of that, Mr. Jon left my bathroom very, very sparkly, And his price was very reasonable to whereby I am having him do other work in my home. And a few days later I was very shocked to hear from him to check to see if everything was still working correctly, now you don't get that every day."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

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.

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. 

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.
