"We are delighted with the work and experience we had with Turner Builders. From start to finish the communication was perfect and the attention to detail was beyond our expectations. Bob made sure that his crew delivered quality work and if at any time the work did not meet his expectations, he had them fix it. The work was completed in a timely manner and they worked around weather conditions to keep the process moving. Honestly we cannot say enough good about our experience. Highly recommend."

For four generations our family has been building custom pool tables, restoring antique billiard tables and everything in between. If you need your pool table moved, recovered or restored....or are looking for that one-of-a-kind, unique table to be designed just for you, let us put our experience and dedication to work for you. We also design and build reasonably priced custom bars, entertainment centers and furniture. Call or email us today for a no-cost, no-obligation estimate on a piece that fits your personal space and style.

"We recently moved and my movers had set up the billard table frame and slate. They were not experienced with doing a billards table install so I had Bluegrass Billards and Woodwork finish the job by leveling the table and getting the felt back on. I was glad to have professionals finish the install. They knew what needed to be done and did a fantastic job. During the install they corrected some things the movers had done when doing the initial setup. I would definitely call them again if I need to move the table or replace the felt."

"We regret placing our order with Pella Cincinnati, and hope that this review helps you to avoid our mistake. In September, 2021, we ordered a replacement front door and large arched window (73” x 75”) above it from Nikki M., with an estimated install date of January, 2022. Final measurements for the window was done from the top of a ~6’ ladder, for a window placed above the entry door in a two-story open foyer. Installation was pushed back to late February due to manufacturing delays. As that date approached, it was pushed again because the door had still not been received. From March - April, we called a week or so after each door delivery date had passed, only to receive a new, more delayed date. In May, we requested that the window be installed, given the door’s unending delays. This was scheduled for June, 2022. The crew arrived as scheduled, and removed the old window from our home. They then installed the new window, only to discover that it was not the correct dimensions. Tommie M., a Retail Installation Manager, was called out to the house to give us our options: accept the window which had a very different arch to it than all the other arched windows on the front of our house, or have them make a template from the old window they’d removed and manufacture a new one (likely with a similar manufacturing timeline.) Given how off the arch of the new window was (more than 4” gaps on either side of the arch) we elected to have the correct window manufactured. This seems to have annoyed the install crew, who shifted from carefully centering the new window to nailing it in and sealing up the holes with spray foam, insulation, and tape. Following this installation, I’ve contacted Pella on June 17, and July 15, and have been told that the template was sent to the factory for engineering confirmation, a prerequisite for placing the order, and that there’s nothing they can do to accelerate the process. Status update calls placed on July 1, 29, and August 8 have simply not been returned. We’re now over 11 months from the time we signed the purchase agreement, with neither component successfully installed. While we understand that COVID-19 has impacted manufacturing timelines, there’s little excuse for the lack of communication from Pella Cincinnati staff, the utter lack of urgency in correcting their errors, and the complete disregard for the fact that the front of our home looks like a contractor abandoned the job mid-install, which is effectively what Pella Cincinnati has done. Save yourself some frustration, and order your doors and windows elsewhere."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.
