"Eric came over to look at the job and determine what parts were needed and the vendor to use. He ordered the necessary materials, set a date to do the work. He arrived on time ready to work. There was quite a bit of manipulation of the railings to get them to fit. He kept until they were finished. Good work, very polite. Cleaned up work space before he left."

"Wow! Doug is the most amazing contractor I have ever worked with. He did a beautiful job on our front porch re-build and was truly helpful in offering suggestions as I was not really sure what I wanted to do as far as materials and design. He was always in touch, he did exactly what he said he was going to do and he did it when he said he would. Plus his work is absolutely beautiful and professionally done. We love our new porch - thank you so much Doug!!"

"We have used a good amount of companies before, and continued to get the same result; no communication, always above budget, and never within the time frame discussed. Trevor and his team were the exact opposite of this. We never had any issues with communication, price, or time. We also have three small children and our project was fairly large. Trevor and his team took great care to make sure our children were comfortable, and most importantly, safe. 10 out of 10 will absolutely hire again."

Carpentry FAQs, 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. 

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.
