write this review so that the request to write this review stops
popping up.
The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit.

"After trying for 2 days, calling every insulation specialist and contractor in cedar rapids on Google. No one would reply or help with the insulation for my mobile home saying the job is not worth it. Finally after going on Angi I found cade. He went out of his way to come fix my insulation Underneath my mobile home. He came the same day after normal business hours to fix my damages at night time. Cause he was worried about my pipes freezing that night. He was very polite and professional. I would highly recommend cade. I will also be calling him in the future if I have any more problems."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

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. 

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.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.
