"I recently hired Masters Interior Carpentry to redo the flooring in my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, their team was professional, detail-oriented, and extremely skilled. They helped me choose the perfect flooring that matched my style and needs, and the installation process was smooth and efficient. The craftsmanship is outstanding – the floors look absolutely stunning and have transformed the entire space! They were also very respectful of my home, leaving everything clean and tidy at the end of each day. I highly recommend Masters Interior Carpentry to anyone looking for quality carpentry work done right. Five stars all the way!"

"Doug and his team were great! We needed our deck rebuilt and reinforced for our hot tub. They build a deck sturdy enough for several hot tubs!! Doug came out quickly and gave us a very reasonable quote and was back out two days later to start the job. I wouldn't hesitate to call Doug for any home improvement project."

"Steve did a thorough investigation of some damaged fiber-cement siding on my house also replacement of some rotted wooden trim. The repairs he proposed addressed the actual damaged areas versus excessive repairs identified in quotes from other contractors. The work was performed efficiently and at a reasonable cost compared to other quotes I received."

"Mike Hammer has a great team of workers. They became just like family after awhile. They always cleaned up the work space each day so we werenâ t looking at a mess each evening. Mike works on one job at a time so heâ s not split between jobs and is good at detail. Thanks Mike, Shawn and Nic !! Becky Shelton"

"Our large pergola was sagging at the center due to age and insufficient support. Mike created an affordable solution by sistering the existing beams. He was very responsive and engaged with this project from initiation to completion. I also had a second bid that was the same solution but about 40% higher. The job was completed in a single day and on the day scheduled. We will get many more years of life from this pergola."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

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.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.
