"We needed a new hand built Victorian/European fireplace with frame work, mantel and decorations. After three years of searching for a professional carpenter to do the specialized work for the fireplace, we found Val. Val knew instinctively what we were needing for the fireplace. Val is an intelligent master craftsman in carpentry and has the knowledge, skills and the ability as well as the passion and commitment to his work, All of these traits are shown in the quality of his work and in the end product. The client/professional carpenter relationship was excellent. We will hire Val again."

Their great, hard-working crew did a top notch job, completing our 80' fence in one day. We are very pleased with the end result and highly recommend Tillman Carpentry!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

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.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

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.
