"I highly recommend Alan. Not only did he do an excellent job of installing my new, unfinished slab mahogany 3/4 lite exterior door between my kitchen and dining room and installing my clear crystal glass interior mortise door knob on the door, but he also did an excellent job of staining and clear coating the door. I am so happy and pleased with the beautiful results! I was very fortunate that Alan has the skills and experience to complete my door project. Some of the companies that I called only install doors. I am grateful that I didnâ t have to hire 2 different people- one to install the door, one to stain the door. Alanâ s carpentry, craftsmanship and staining skills are outstanding. He pays attention to detail and puts a lot of care in his work. On Friday, 5/10/19, I originally made an online appointment to see Alan on Monday, 5/13/19. However, on Friday, 5/10/19, when I tried to call Alan, I was so lucky to reach him and he was able to come out right away to look at my door! I was so happy that Alan was able to install my door on the following Wednesday, 5/15/19! Before installing the door, Alan placed the door on a table on the sidewalk in front of my house. He sanded and planed the door at that location so that there would be no wood dust in the house. He carefully measured and checked before installing the door, the door knob, mortise lock and hinges. After Alan installed the door, he cleaned the sidewalk and inside work area. At a later date, Alan returned to remove the door and he took it with him to stain. First, he removed the door hardware and left that in the house. After Alan was finished applying 1 coat of Old Masters Oil Based Wood Conditioner Clear 50104 and 5 coats of Varathane Ultimate Polyurethane Water Based Interior Crystal Clear Satin, sanding between coats with 150-160 fine grit sandpaper and wiping the dust off the door, he arranged a convenient time to return to re-install the door and door hardware. Alan is very pleasant, helpful, accommodating, approachable, trustworthy and easy to work with. As a senior with a limited budget, I really appreciated that Alan was willing to work with me to meet my budget. Also, he graciously helped me by filling in 2 holes in my wood floor where the new door was installed. It was truly a pleasure meeting Alan. I will hire him again for future carpentry projects and I will definitely recommend him to family and friends. Alan, many thanks for a job well done!"

"Shane and Corey did an excellent job with the finish carpentry on a basement remodel. They matched the custom redwood trim & stayed within the original design, adding modern updates that blended well aesthetically. They are master craftsmen, and have creative minds that are up for new challenges which I tested them with. Thank you for quality craftsmanship to you both!"

"He did everything he was hired to do - and then did so much more. His work was excellent - he arrived on time, was courteous, and left the area clean. We will hire him again for all our carpentry work. We will give his name to all our friends who might need a finish carpenter."

"James did a great job for us building a wall. From start to finish he was here when he said he would be and finished on time even with a few speed bumps in the middle. Non of his own doing I might say. Thank you James you are on the top of my list for the next project. Trent"

"I had R.U.S.S Custom Builds come out and do a framing job for me. First off, the customer service and overall interaction with me as a client was on point. We got together, figured everything out and got straight to work. Russ is a hard working man who will get the job done right and and do it to the best of his abilities. He treats his customers fairly and with respect. Highly recommend him to anyone looking to get an amazing, high quality job done!"

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.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.
