"Very easy with which to work. They were prompt, friendly, and did a fine job at the right price, with even a plan to return one more time for some touch-up work, after the original job (which was over two consecutive days). In addition, performed an extra small carpentry job on short notice (not on the deck),"

"We employed this company to tear down the original builders decking and replace it with composite decking and redesigned stairs.The workmanship was excellent. We subsequently had them build a storage shed underneath the deck. Cost estimates, planning & execution were very professional. The owner of the company is very willing to discuss alternatives to achieve an optimal outcome. The team are hard working and pay close attention to detail. We are very satisfied with the outcome."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

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.

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.

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.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
