"The owner was a hard worker and diligent when s here. He over booked himself. So he leave the job unfinished, and go to the next job . He did not returned to complete the job. Its been August, September, October 2025. The work started at the end of July. He asked for payment before He completed the job. His experienced as a carpenter was not good enough. I would not recommend that company."

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"My table is 95% better. I would have liked the table top to be more finished. And one of the legs is still partially split away. Other than that I would have given them all 5 stars."

Hello!\nI'm Bryan and I'm a homeowner myself. In my 24 years of homeownership, I have learned a lot of skills to fix, build and repair around the house. I'm happy to help. \nI am a man of character though, and prefer not to be alone with a woman as to avoid anything that could look bad or be misunderstood. I appreciate your respect on this and hope to be able to help you with your project!

"We are really happy with what Paul and his crew did for us. We started with a plan and began searching for contractors. We were almost settled on a contractor who was going to do most of what we wanted, but insisted that raising our kitchen ceiling would be cost prohibitive. We then decided to get more opinions. I found Paul here on Angieslist and he came out. He was up in the attic for about 10 minutes and then reported that there is no reason why the ceiling couldn't be raised for a reasonable cost. After discussing this for quite some time, I hired an engineer to validate what Paul proposed and draw up the engineering plans for the project. Once that cleared we hired Paul and began the project. Paul totally worked with us. We wanted a hybrid approach where we had tons of involvement but he managed the project. I still can't believe how smooth it all went. There really weren't any big surprises and Paul was not only a great contractor but he also became a good advisor and in couple cases advised against some of the ideas we had and provided good reasons why which we never would have thought of until it was too late. Overall, the project consisted of a complete tear down and remodel of the kitchen, including the ceiling lift. He also helped with our fireplace, HVAC and a few other things throughout the house. We now feel like we have a very custom model home. I hope we don't have to run another project like this, but if we do, we'll be calling Paul to run it. Thanks Paul."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

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.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.
