"We highly recommend Van K Carpentry. Jerry was quick to respond, very reasonable and extremely personable. He did a fantastic job on modifying our kitchen island for a countertop install. We will definitely call him for any future projects."

"We couldn't be happier with our decision to hire O'Rourke Deck Services to build our new Cedar deck! From start to finish the process was so easy and stress free for us. Sean was quick to provide a very thorough estimate in a wide range of materials so we could select one that fit our exact budget. They handled all the permitting and the work was done quickly, We really could not be happier with the result. Thanks again Sean and Jesse!"

"Mitch and Spencer handled my tuck pointing job, which started out small but turned out to be large, professionally. They knew what the problem was with water infiltration and how to treat it. Their tuck-pointer did really great work on the stone and brick and rebuilding my rear stairs and he left the place spotless. I will definitely re-hire them for projects I have coming up."

"Art was AMAZING! The first company I tried spent 3 months with trying to match the siding that they said wasn't available. On the same day I fired them, I called Art, panicked and frustrated. He came out that night, took one look and said I can get this, and gave me a great price. He did my whole house, was attentive to every detail, cleaned up everything, was very respectful and friendly, and would bring cookies for my dog every day. He helped me with a gutter issue when I mentioned I had some problems with it. I STRONGLY recommend Art. He's truly a great person and very reliable!"

"Marcia was our designer, and she was wonderful to work with! Professional from the start, flexible, and always receptive and responsive. The installers were great as well, always arriving within the designated window. They were also professional and friendly! We can't wait to do our pantry and nursery closet! We will definitely be using Closet OS again! Thank you for transforming our rooms and giving us great storage space!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Darren did an excellent job on my projects. He is truly a finished carpenter. He made new window grills and repaired and stained my outdoor trellises. I was impressed with his attitude that no job was to small. He has an excellent work ethic and pays attention to details. He noticed when additional repairs were needed and discussed with me rather than just overlooking the work. I would not hesitate to hire him for future work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

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.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

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.
