"Great company! We had a bathroom remodel done to our master bathroom. Mack and his crew were phenomenal with the remodel. Great quality carpentry work along with great tile work. We converted our garden tub and shower to a walk in shower. They pay great attention to detail also. The price we were quoted was what we paid. Again, great company. We will definitely be using them in the future. Contact them directly +1 (706) 715-0439 - Juri"

"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."

"The exterior of my house was just repaired and painted by CA Custom Painting. I have had work done before but none like this. Carlos Sr and Jr are extremely professional, and skilled. First they gave me a competitive estimate in line with others I obtained. After accepting them to do the work the first thing they did was a thorough close-up inspection. When they found additional work that needed to be done, they took a picture and pointed out to me where the damage was located or showed me the damaged part that had carpenter bee or damage due to rot, Once the carpentry work was done, to my surprise, they even suggested that I repair my porch prior to painting it because it needed minor repairs that I was willing to accept as is. CA Custom Painting repaired the damaged area so that the total job would reflect positively on them and be much better for me. They worked all day, cleaned up daily and never caused any delays ,issues or problems. It felt like they painted my home as they would their own, they refused to take shortcuts. They sought and obtained perfection, the house looks brand new! I inspected their work multiple times each day, they welcomed all questions and took the time to explain their work. I am very pleased with the work done and would highly recommend CA Custom Painting to anyone that wants their home properly repaired and painted by true professionals."

"Andy is a consummate honest, professional and talented craftsman. Our front porch steps had separated from the side rails and support posts. Another words, no one was able to enter through the front of our home. Andy gave us a quote which he adhered to. The quality of his repair/replacement work was excellent and timely. He NEVER left any mess. Andy will be the ONLY person my hubby and I will call for any/all future work! Thank you Andy, we appreciate you."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

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.
