"If you are looking for great quality, reliable, and fair pricing, look no further than West County Carpentry. You will work directly with the owner, Tim. We recently bought a home around Cobden IL and needed the old 2nd-story deck replaced. The old deck was under-built and rotting. Tim removed it and built a beautiful new 2nd story deck. Tim also used some of our left-over siding to repair and fix areas where the previous deck had been: Looks great! Safety was a #1 concern of ours, and Tim did a great job. The quality of his work is fantastic, and Tim worked with us under challenging circumstances (he had to change sources of some of the building supplies at the last minute due to COVID-19 so that our 2-story deck could be completed on-time). I cannot recommend Tims West County Carpentry enough."

"FIREPLACE ELECTRICAL INSERT!! We hired Vinc and crew a second time to make the fireplace insert happen. They worked very hard to modify the old brick opening and seal everything up properly. Vinc has great suggestions and ideas! He created us a one of a kind beautiful year round updated look for our home we love & been enjoying for two weeks! We will hire him again!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.
