Customers say: Quality work

"We were very impressed by the knowledge and expertise of the owner, Rick Lacey. After our first meeting, we were satisfied that he would build a quality deck for a reasonable price. The entire team was professional at every level of my contact with them. From the initial planning, to periodic updates, to the final follow up. I could not have asked for a better experience. The products they use are some of the best in class, and though not cheap, I got exactly what I hoped and paid for - A beautiful, well constructed deck. Will definitely be calling on them for any future needs in this area. My standards are very high and Lacey Carpentry met or exceeded all of them."

"Very happy with the results of our deck! Eagle Fence was very professional and knowledgeable about the work needing to be done. They added the deck to our existing screened in porch and also installed the solar lights for us. It was completed in a timely manner and they cleaned up all materials, trash, etc. Definitely a great addition for our family during summer time!"

"We hired Handymack for painting our outside but also for several other projects. They painted the exterior of our home, did carpentry work to update the look and give it curb appeal, Put in our kitchen floor, painted the kitchen and put up the tile back splash. Mack and staff can do anything you ask and it will turn out better than you imagined in your head. HandyMack delivers on their promises. The crew came every day on time and stayed for 8 or 9 hours. They are extremely hard working and reliable. They also are very competitive with their pricing and fair. I would highly recommend to anyone needing renovations, painting, construction on their homes. I am thrilled we found someone we can rely on. HandyMack and his crew are top notch. We will be using them again for further projects."

"My husband and I wanted to do some much needed home improvements. I visited Angi.com and typed in my construction needs: we wanted to replace our rotting upper deck. I interviewed 3 different companies and selected on A.D.A. Construction and Erin Lopez for my team. From the moment the project started, his construction crew never stopped moving. Erin really listened to what I needed to have done. He was professional and courteous. They showed up on time and worked hard in this Georgia heat. While they were here, I asked for a quote on a second project. He gave me a quote on the spot, which was in my budget. Erin was able to work both projects simultaneously. I now have a beautiful front porch and a beautiful upper deck all thanks to A.D.A Construction, Erin Lopez and Samuel. I would give them a 10 if that were an option. I will definitely call on Erin for any future projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

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.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.
