"JDP Construction installed a wood fence around my home. It looks absolutely great. They were professional, punctual, friendly, and very knowledgeable. I will refer them to friends and family. And I will also use them for my next home project! I am pleased!"

"Omg, I went through sooo many ppl who did not know what they were doing and finally I got the true pros!!! They had to do so much to make my drop in stove fit in the space! They came prepared and ready to work! With each issue that came up I said *oh do you all have to come back*, they said nope! We have it in the truck. They had to cut some of the countertop, build a platform, rebuild the bottom front part of the countertop bxc the last person messed it up. When I say Start to Finish was my saving grace! Thank you sooo much! They will be my new handyman/home improvement! I forgot to mention they were a little early, which in my book is on time but since everyone was always super late I just figured they would be too but nope! They are amazing!"

"Trevor has been an amazing contractor who has helped us through the process of installing a large interior door for an office. He has helped ensure the space was properly prepared for installation of the door. The other contractors who have assisted Trevor have also exceeded my expectations. They have been extremely detail oriented and have done everything to ensure the best outcome. I would definitely work with Trevor for any future projects."

"They did a great job. They were very careful to curtain off the work area to keep drywall dust out of the other areas of our home. Very thorough. Did exactly what was agreed on and finished in a timely manner. I am hiring them for another job in January"

"⸻ We had an old cabinet that wasn’t very functional, and he completely transformed it into smooth-working shelves and drawers. The craftsmanship was solid, and he paid attention to every detail. He was also incredibly patient and respectful while working with my wife to make sure everything turned out just the way we wanted. Very happy with the results—highly recommend!"

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

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.

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.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.
