"No reservations. A number of different jobs done. All were done to the highest standards. The owner always was available for questions. He closely monitored his workers. I had a new roof installed; the best install I have seen. I continue to use KC Construction for several other jobs. He is very honest and cares that his workers do a great job. His company is a gem. I very highly recommend them."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Contact was quick; came by the next day to inspect and an estimate came two days later. They had a very reasonable estimate for my two jobs: Replacing my deck and replacing basement door/frame. I waited while I got estimates from three other companies. Questions answered about services & material and I then asked BHM to do the jobs. Three days later they were here. Completed the work in two days. Enjoyed meeting Rod & John. Happy with their work and I highly recommend them."

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.

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.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.
