"One of a Kind Carpenter was terrific. All the work was completed- even though we ran into some challenges, which they quickly resolved. I have an older house, and these were not anticipated with the job. I also added on to the project a few times, which they managed to do in a timely fashion, and the quality of work was impeccable. I would highly recommend him, and I will not use anyone else for my work now."

"After searching many different companies, I was very please with the review that I read on Angie's list. June was always very responsive to my many questions, and explained the options of what we could do with the piece. We didn't want to hide the beautiful wood work by painting it, so we decided to have it stripped and stained. Victor and Jerry were so kind, professional and careful with the piece. They even took a leaf that we had wanted the China cabinet to match, and they did it flawlessly! I would highly recommend this company, and we will definitely be using them again very soon. Thank you!! :-)"

Customers say: Quality work

"I was so impressed by the quality of work done on my fence that before Chris left I gave him a list of about ten other projects I wanted done, including repair to worn wood siding, weather stripping, sagging screen door and other items. Again the work was extremely well done by professionals who obviously take pride in their work. Will definitely call Chris when I need anything else done around the house."

"hired Chris to replace an damaged wooden fence. upon completion of job noticed several panels with large splits and the fence was not secure in one area.I was not satisfied He had attached the new fencing to the old damaged posts.I never asked him to cut corners he then added new posts next to the old ones and replaced the split panels.I wanted to pay when the job was done correctly.he wanted me to pay him before the job was corrected. wrote me numerous emails demanding payment .said he thought i was trying not to pay him...I did not hire him to do a ship shod job.. 30 years this was my first bad experience with someone i hired. got him from angis list. paid $2300.if you hire him make sure you are both on the same page.."

"I used Jeremey to level some uneven concrete prior to flooring installation. There were some small challenges to the project as well like raising a threshold. He did great work in the promised time frame. I highly recommend him."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

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.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.
