"I wish there were more stars to give to Carlos. He’s not only an excellent human being, but also an exceptional carpenter and magician as well. His attention to detail is simply amazing, his workmanship is impressive and the quality of his work outstanding. The piece of furniture I needed him to build wasn’t overly difficult, but when we realized the condition of the wall and the floor around it might make it more complicated - he still worked his magic and made it all work-out beautifully. He always comes accompanied by his wife, Ines, and they are both the nicest, hardest working people I have ever met. A joy to work with...A rare find these days. I just want to have more projects so I can call them again!!!"

"Met with owner Michel, solid dude. I’m a picky GC and Michel is now handling my family’s vacation house maintenance. He gained my trust when he built a solid outdoor table base for an expensive piece of stone. He got the job done quickly and within the budget he set. Good company ran by the business owner."

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. 

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

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.
