"Victor has done an absolutely amazing job on my ball and stick corner chair. It’s from late 1800’s and to say I’m extremely happy about how it turned out would be an understatement! Thank you Victor and Family Furniture antiques in winter park Florida for restoring this piece. It’s an absolute treasure"

"Travis is my answer to my shrub trimming. He came on time and did an excellent job of trimming all our shrubs and cleaned up after. He also expanded our mulch area which had become overgrown."

"Prism Carpentry is the absolute best! Had my old back splash removed and new tile installed. Also, had two doorway thresholds wrapped in wood with korbels added. Prism Carpentry was professional, respectful to my home, and the work was absolutely stunning. This was not the first project done by Prism in my home. Main bathroom mirror removed with shiplap installed, separate mirrors hung and farmhouse lighting installed. Wainscotting was also installed in main bedroom. I can't say enough about this company. If you need a project done and want quality craftsmanship, call Prism!"

"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!!!"

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

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.
