"My bathroom renovation was completely done in just a few days. The guys were knowledgeable and hard working as well as friendly. I have more projects that I will definitely be having done by them. Hixson contracting is also very reasonably priced. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing work done."

"Calvin is professional when you meet with him. He is prompt in returning calls and he kept me informed on all phases of the project. Calvin and his crew are friendly and the work area was always cleaned up at the end of the day. I will definitely hire Bow Hunters Construction again."

"Once I sent her all the measurements, it took her a little while to get the options back to me.  Overall, they're good designs.  However, they're very simplistic and give general ideas for space planning.  I was hoping to have a better idea for sizes of furniture for the space and some variations on staging.  
Jill was very responsive when I did have a question.  I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a virtual design done.  If we lived in similar cities, I'd probably use her again for help with additional designs.

"I haven’t yet worked with Matt on a home project, but he responded promptly and professionally from the very start of our conversations about work needed in my home. He arrived early for our walk through yesterday and thoughtfully answered all of my questions in a friendly manner, without condescending to me, as has happened with some contractors I’ve met. He is clearly knowledgeable, experienced and eager to work. Because I have a carpenter already working in my house who was hoping to do one of the projects that Matt was interested in, I am in an awkward place right now as a homeowner and trying to find out what the appropriate homeowner protocols are."

"Very professional and good communication. In a recent storm one of my downspouts became disconnected from my gutters. Being that I live in a split level and this was in about the most inconvenient spot( an I am getting older and seemingly more clumsy), I decided to have someone do the job. A&B reached out to me very quickly and had an opening to get me in same day. Keep in mind this was the middle of January shortly after a winter storm. They were able to quickly get this job done despite the difficult weather and snow on the ground and for a fair price. Throughout they were very communicative, I knew exactly where they were and when they would be arriving. In fact, when I went to just check in with them, they had already finished and Steve was going the extra mile with tidying up and making sure everything was right for a repair that would last. Would definitely recommend for handyman jobs!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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.

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.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.
