"This was the most pleasant experience I’ve ever had. They did custom picture frame moldings on a wall based on my drawings I had sketched on a napkin, and they did both stories of my home with crown molding. They were clean, kind, fair price, honest, and above all the work is flawless. I mean in any room, any floor, any corner I challenge you to find any flaw. Completely seamless. This is the guy for your project, so stop reading and call them!"

"Perfect. They did excellent work. Very professional and very clean as well. I don't think another carpenter could have done what needed to be done as well as Carlos did. I am extremely pleased."

"If I could give this team 10 stars, I would. I hired them to build a custom headboard from a picture I provided. From start to finish, the customer service has been a dream. This team is thorough, precise, consultative, creative and incredibly pleasant to work with. My husband mapped out the measurement specs for the headboard including a space at the bottom where we could feed our electrical wires. Although it was a bit of an unusual request (definitely more function vs form), the team nailed it. I couldnâ  t be more happy with the finished product. Thank you!!!!"

"They were all polite worked together like a well oiled machine. I was amazed at how much they paid attention to detail and what a fantastic paint job they did. I had a couple of accent colors and my house looks picture perfect! I was also amazed how they cleaned up they vacuumed and mopped all the areas, I would definitely give them the highest mark and would be proud to recommend they to anyone."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

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.
