"Osmans Carpentry is excellent. Val came to the site and gave a very fair estimate of the work and the price. Communication is excellent. Flo is a very talented carpenter and installed a new 16 foot wood banister to the lower level. He also repaired a number of the stair balusters, fixing them in position very nicely. Super efficient worker who is very talented. Would hire them again without hesitation."

"I recently moved to a condo. My closet doors kept getting stuck and needed work. My condo building maintenance team looked at the closets and told me the only way to solve the problem was to replace the closet doors. I did not know what to do. I located TORO CARPENTRY LLC on the BBB website. TORO CARPENTRY LLC - Jaime looked at the closet problem and found a solution without replacing the closet doors. Jaime’s Team did a great job and guaranteed the work. I am very happy withTORO CARPENTRY LLC and would recommend them to anyone."

"The job went beautifully. Joesph is a Craftsman, an artist. He believes in doing things the right way. He installed our kitchen. He took care in making sure all the cabinets were installed properly. He was responsible for all the casings and mouldings in our entire house. Our home is an 1889 Italianate. Special care needed to be taken. And yes, we would hire him again and again. What a kind, knowledgeable craftsman that believes in the highest standards and quality of work."

"I can't recommend these guys enough. During a time when it felt like it was impossible to find good help, Overall Builders came through. They got a great carpenter out who framed up a new interior doorway in a hall and installed the jamb and door. I've used them in the past and will do so again."

"Outstanding service.  Installed on time as the order stated.  We used them several months ago to do our outdated reach in closets and they did a great job.  We decided to contact Rich the designer again to see what he could do with our basic shelving in our laundry room. He asked a few questions and emailed us the design that night.  No pressure sales and presented to us what he could build and we got to pick and chose what we wanted completed.  The day of the installation went really well.  Steve came out and installed the shelving.  He also did the install on the initial project we did for our closets.  Quality instal with absolutely no issues.  We would use them again, but we have ran out of closets and storages areas.  I would recommend them to my family and friends.

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

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.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.
