"Considering the age of the home (over 100 years), where many unknowns were expected and encountered, the job went well. The quality demanded by the contractor was exceptional. Areas that needed updating were not neglected, instead improved using high-quality materials and workmanship. The new edition blends well into the original structure."

"I’ve used many contractors over decades of home ownership. I put One of a Kind Carpenter at the top for quality and value. It started with Dale who was friendly and efficient getting me the quote. Then she promptly got me the revisions as I modified the scope of work until we arrived at a final plan. One of the other things I liked was that Chad, the owner, did not just give me what I asked for; he made suggestions that made the project better. The workmanship was overseen either by himself or by his son. They know what they are doing. We did a 10’ x 1’ bump out wall covered in stone. Instead of using sheetrock like another contractor wanted to do, Chad used Durock to support the weight. They even hand cut the 90 degree stone side corners up to the 12’ ceiling. It was refreshing not to have a single problem with their workmanship. For materials, he did not do cost plus but gave me the receipts and only charged me what he paid. He did a few extra things that needed to be done without charging extra. They are true professionals not demanding an upfront deposit to cover the materials as lesser contractors do. They finished the project quickly too! This new bump out wall has given us pleasure every single day since its completion. I highly recommend One of a Kind Carpenter."

"Brisana was without a doubt the right choice. Jose reached out to me when I posted the project and was able to come to my home for an estimate the same day. He was professional, approachable and knowledgeable. I had a short deadline because we were expecting house guests less than a week later so he not only brought in his team but rolled up his sleeves and painted himself to get the job done. I picked the wrong color, twice, and they all dealt with the additional work of repainting the same areas without blinking twice. I was never made to feel like it was a burden or a problem. The entire team, Jose, Arturo and Sabrina were professional, efficient and courteous. My husband, son and I were home the entire time and they worked around us and were pleasant and considerate of our space and schedule. The quality of the work was outstanding and meticulous. I was beyond thrilled to find out that Jose is a general contractor as well, so I am looking forward to many more projects together to come. One and done and great quality at a fair price. What can be better than that."

"Gary and his team did a fantastic job! There was communication throughout the entire process, from start to finish. The attention to detail was top notch. Gary also took great care of my property, cleaning up every day and making sure his tools were not in our way. The craftsmanship and overall quality of his work is excellent. Overall great experience and so glad we found such a good contractor to work with from Angie’s List!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
