"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."

"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!"

"It was good. He worked part time. He participated quite a beat. He worked some days half day and some days he would take off to send his kids to school. We were prepared to deal with it. He was a very good carpenter. He was flexible. My wife wanted some custom and unusual things. He could understand what we needed and he did it. He was polite. He did a very good job."

"Bill said that since it was impossible to estimate the total cost until the demolition was complete but agreed to set a cap at $20,000. The work required demolishing the framing, jacking up the side of the roof in several places, tearing off all the siding and completing repairs. Bill had a crew of 2-3 people working daily for about 3 weeks. The house is better and more valuable. The communicated daily to keep us informed about the process, progression and costs. He came in under budget. There was no set completion time at the outset since the extent of damage was undetermined, but I was satisfied with the entire process. Bill is a great person to work with, honest and conscientious."

"These fellas were great! The Boss, Trevor, could not make it as his wife was giving birth to their very cute daughter, his brother Denim shared a photo. Congrats to the Couple. Denim and James were right on time and from the moment they arrived, they were all business, sticking an moving. They did a great job, and were dedicated to the task. They were very polite and respectful. As a Contractor for nearly 4 decades, their good work habits were well defined and demonstrated. They even used a specific grommeted fasteners I provided as being one for water tightness in the roof panels. Great job. Despite Trevors desire to be but inability to be onsite, and rightly so, his brother Denim and worker James, easily picked up and filled in for Trevors likely contribution to the end. They provided a 10% discount in recognition for my Military Service. GREAT JOB! Love the new shed!! Patrick Garvey, Investigative Paralegal & Veteran By my experience with this Company, you can r"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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. 

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
