"Barefoot Painting did a great job with the iron fence at the entrance to our subdivision. They treated it and painted it and it now looks great! Their communication and customer service was also great. It was a pleasure to work with them!!"

"Bert has been wonderful since the start. He answers his phone and texts you back promptly. He shows up when he says he will which is amazing considering how hard it is for a contractor to respond to you or show up when they say they will. He did electrical work for my new pool installation and is going to do a couple other items for me as well since he can do wide variety of work. He also backs his work if you have any issues. Highly recommended! Iâ d give him 10 stars if I could."

"I cannot recommend Rolling Green Fence high enough. I would give them 10 stars if I could!! Absolutely stellar job - even better than I had hoped for. From the outstanding customer service I received when the owner, Buck, answered my first call, to the final cleanup when the job was through, every part of this job was of the highest quality. Not only was Buck incredibly responsive, his team completed my job in record time, with the greatest quality of any workers I have ever hired - bar none. My job was not standard. I needed an 8 foot wooden fence to be installed in a gully on the side of my yard to ensure privacy. Not only does the fence they installed look incredible, the team completely transformed the look of my yard by expertly aligning the adjoining fence - not even part of the original project - to almost completely eliminate the look of a fence moving down a slope. I watched the team - and a fantastic team they were - measure, align, run a level line, adjust, custom cut, and perfect each board in my fence. The supervisor worked mathematic equations on the wood, explaining to the others how he was making his calculations, and perfecting the job for me. I could not be more impressed. There is true pride in workmanship with this company and that is a rare trait to find in a contractor. Buck and his team really brought my vision to life in a big way and I cannot say enough about this amazing company. Well done, one and all!!"

"Bob is amazing. I was new to town and was lucky enough to find Bob on this service. He can literally build a house from the ground up if needed. I bought a bank owned property and it was trashed by former owners. Bob came in, gave a fair assessment and provided excellent professional work on time and in line with his estimate. He always provided recipes for items purchased on my behalf. In addition, he always gives you many options in terms of saving money or going higher end. Depends on what you want to do with the property. He painted inside and out and it came out great. He redid both bathrooms from full demo to completed product and it came out great. Having a contractor you can trust and not have to chase down is his biggest asset. He just gets it done, it’s done on time and it’s fantastic quality and price."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

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.
