"James is a highly skilled carpenter. He has a tremendous work ethic and demonstrated integrity and professionalism. He quickly understood our project which was to build a small deck in front of a new shed with ramp and step access and a bridge over a dry creek. We are very satisfied with all aspects of his work."

"Our experience with Home Improvement Masters was outstanding! Mr Craig and his team did an amazing job adding the addition to our home. He was also able to get our entire roof replaced through an insurance claim and we were able to get a brand new roof. We upgraded from a builders grade three tab shingle to a more appealing architectural shingle, as well as replace a few of the gutters. Also the crew did an amazing job with cleaning up the work site after they were finished and left everything immaculate. We highly recommend Home Improvement Masters and would be willing to provide a reference to anyone looking for a reputable contractor. Thank you Mr. Craig!"

"Make A Choice Home Exterior was a company that exceeded our expectations. After interviewing 5 different companies we knew they were the one that was going to assist us in the largest financial decision we had to make. We had never remodeled the exterior of our home, or any others and the task seemed overwhelming. Chuck was extremely knowledgeable in the process and took the time to listen to our concerns. His professional approach on “what is reasonable and customary” when starting a project of this scale made us both feel at ease. He provided many different options for repair, replacement and kept it all within our stated budget. Choosing the paint colors was the only thing he said was, a personal preference and mentioned that Sherwin Williams is the best choice for exterior paint, and they have any colors that meet your expectations. Project took 2 weeks and came in on budget. Their crew was employed by MAC and not sub-contractors. They were on time, cleaned up at the end of each day and very respectful of our property. On Time. On Budget. Amazing results. If you are interested in having work done, please contact Chuck and the team at MAC."

"I got quotes from the 3 providers and decided on Make A Choice. It was definitely the 'right' choice. Thanks Chuck! The work was done quickly and professionally. Great care was taken to cause little disturbance to neighbors who are VERY close in proximity to my house. Step 1: Siding: These guys were fast, and I mean fast. They blazed through the demolition of the old siding, vacuum sealed the sides, and put up my new hardy board. Just like that it was done and done right. Then it was painted (well) and the house began to look brand new. Step 2: Soffit: I almost didn't spring for soffit, and that would have been a big mistake. These guys did an amazing job on the soffit which now has the under siding looking amazing!! Most impactful thing I had done. All the neighbors are jealous! Step 3: Porch: I asked for a 'beefier' porch, and that is what I got. Amazing railings and new columns. I had them put a band about a foot down from the top of the columns and they really stand out now. The railing is double thick on the top and they are taller now, and the whole thing is the envy of the neighborhood. I also asked for a 'dental trim' and expected a strip from Home Depot or something. Nope. They custom made it, curved and impactful. Above and beyond. Step 4: Gutters: The gutters they installed go so seamlessly with the soffit that you can barely tell they are there! Beautiful and they put in a complete system where some needed gutters had been left out from the initial house build. The match to the rest of the house is uncanny. Step 5: Door: This they outsourced to a guy who also blew me away with a professional install and removal of my old door. Cleanup was done after each major renovation and at finish and everything was pretty close to "move in" ready. They did destroy a cement fountain, but patched it up so you could hardly tell. (I knew I should have moved that thing out of the way!) The only non-10 out of 10 would be the trim painting on the porch and windows, which got a bit rushed with bad weather, and even that gets a 9-10, with the only little things I could catch being quite 'nit-picky'. Overall, this company delivered in spades on the goods it promised and they were very responsive throughout the whole process. I would 100% use them again without hesitation for any other external house projects!! Priced competitively and delivering results that exceeded my expectations."

"James got in touch quickly about doing some minor repairs to the house for sale.  He showed up on time and was able to give a quick estimate on time and the work that needed to be done.  Everything looks great and it was done in great time and at a fair price.  Would highly recommend him for your handyman work.

"Daniel is very professional. He is a skilled carpenter and is eager to make his clients happy. I've had Daniel build a complicated deck, a patio, smoker deck, clean gutters, repair gutters, move plants, and more. I have recommended him to others and recommend him to you. Remember: don't assume anyone can read your mind and discern your vision or wants unless you thoroughly explain that to them."

"They did an excellent job building a screen room on my deck. The finished product looks great. I would rate straight 5's if communication was better but then it's difficult for contractors to respond quickly since they are on the job all day. I would definitely hire them again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off.
