"Excellent professional work and managed to use existing structures to cut costs. Carpentry work was master level and cleaned up very well and communication was first rate. In general lumber costs are high but the finished deck they did for my back deck is well worth the investment and will be enjoyed for years to come!"

"We decided to remove the old deck in our back yard and build a new larger one with a pergola. Jim did a great job from start to end. Before starting, he helped us deciding the material by providing quotes using cedar and composite. We decided to use cedar for both deck and pergola, and we love how it came out. Jim was very responsive during the design phase. So, we could finalize the design and start construction. At that point we had a tight schedule because of guests visiting during summer. Jim and his team worked hard and managed to be within schedule. The work was done very carefully, with great attention to details and we are very pleased by the outcome."

"I am extremely pleased with the work that was done in my home! He did an amazing job mounting both of my TVs, installing the two floating shelves, and mounting my fireplace. Everything was completed with great attention to detail, precision, and professionalism. He made sure everything was level, secure, and positioned exactly where I wanted it. The finished setup looks beautiful and has completely transformed the space. He was punctual, knowledgeable, and left the area clean after the job was done. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for quality workmanship and excellent customer service. I will definitely be using him again for future projects!"

"Bk carpenters are the type of craftsmen other contractors should strive to be. Made me think about how my grandfather would say things once were. A man who gives you his word and sticks to it. Brian said he would be here at 8am and he was there at 7:45. No corners cut and the attention to detail blew me away. I couldnâ t be happier. Iâ ll definitely be using bk for future projects."

"Trent and his crew did a great job replacing my deck, portions of the fence and building a new gate with a keyed lock. My old deck was in such bad condition I was afraid to even walk on it. Trent took up all the old boards and cleaned up the debris under the deck that had been left from previous owners who originally built the deck. He also put up chicken wire around the base to keep out the critters that had been coming from under the fence and climbing onto my deck at night. This was his suggestion and he did it free of charge. How many contractors are that thoughtful nowadays? His estimate was thorough and there were no additional or hidden costs. He and his crew were professional and courteous at all times. Iâ m so happy that I can now have coffee on my deck in the morning and sit in the afternoons and evenings enjoying the fresh air and evening stars. I would definitely hire this contractor again and likely will for some interior remodeling I want to have done."

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.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.
