"Oh my gosh, I don’t even know where to start. Tony arrived on the day and the time that we agreed upon , he gave me options on how to fix the repairs , we decided to replace the trim on the door frame where my puppy had chewed on it , Tony went to Home Depot and got what he needed and came right back and got to work. We also replaced the shoe molding where my puppy had chewed on that as well , Tony did an exceptional job, I am very pleased. I have asked Tony to give me a quote on converting my Bathtub/ shower combo into a low threshold walk-in shower. I would’ve gave Tony 10 stars if that had been an option.👍"

"Mr. Martin was excellent to work with. Rain held up the project some, but the project kept moving and was done efficiently and neatly. We intend to ask him to do other projects for us."

"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

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
