Quality, pride and attention to detail are the hallmarks of Darcy Bean Custom Construction. After working for over 20 years in the construction business around East Central Illinois, I founded my company in 1994 to provide our customers with a "hands-on" approach to quality building and remodeling. While some builders will cut corners to save a few dollars, I work closely with our customers to craft their project plans to meet their needs. From a small room remodel, to building the home of your dreams, my company will provide the highest quality construction services. We handle a wide range of construction jobs, including kitchen remodels, bathrooms, room additions and light commercial projects. In addition to construction, we can also provide design services. These steps, handled by one office, turn your project into a seamless process that will meet your specific needs. In 2011 we won two national gold Design Awards!

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Generally completed within a couple of hours, depending on damage extent.

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.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry.
