"Very reliable...did what we expected & in the time frame. We are pleased with their work. We just moved to this area and did not know any trade people in this area and so glad to meet. I was concerned because of the company's name I.e, "Carpentry" but was not an issue after we saw their work. Will considered Nunes Carpentry for other jobs."

"John is a pleasure to work with. His work is beautiful, and he is a great problem solver. He put the trim in our living room and bedroom and build a gorgeous dining room buffet. He is an excellent finish carpenter and dependable. He arrived when he said he would and worked diligently to get the job finished promptly. We would highly recommend him."

"John was prompt on call back and appointment to give estimate.  He impressed us so much that we didn't  interview the other vendors we had lined up for estimates.
On time for job start-SKILLED CRAFTSMAN-attention to detail was amazing-neat-clean-respectful of our home
He's creative, takes a great deal of pride in his work and was a pleasure to work with.
His paint team, Karol & Alex have the same work ethic and skills-very professional, neat, clean and on time.
Would highly recommend BJ Trim Carpentry Inc.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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. 

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.
