If youâ re looking for an excellent finishing carpenter, Ryan is your guy. On top of all that, he is polite and personable and ever so pleasant to work with. In addition to all of this, he is impeccably neat in his cleanup at the end of the project."

"The Pro was professional and his staff workers did a very good job. And was very quick too. They repaired 40 boards and painted/stained the deck 2 coats. I only have 1 complaint...I have tried to contact the Pro to get a receipt of payment and havent heard back from him. (I texted him and left a voice mail) also, the deck has 1 board that is not nailed down and is starting to warp. (I notified him of this too.)"

"Coaty & The Crew installed a new wooden deck at my house in Lexington, Kentucky. This area has very strict building codes but they were able to build the deck nicely and pass all city inspections. We ran into a few issues, such as having to make modifications to the footers, but they were able to quickly fix all of these unforeseen issues and build a good quality deck. I highly recommend them and will call them for all my future deck projects."

"When no one else would touch my 15 minute project for less than a 2 hour minimum, Ben and his sons squeezed me in. I'm in my 70s now and can no longer physically do some things. Ben was the only handyman to accommodate my situation."

"Just did a absolutely fantastic job. Had hail damage to our screened porch and a few window screens. Recommended a more durable type screen for the porch. Went with that and we are so happy with it. Our house is on a fall away lot, so porch is a story off the ground. Have bushes on one side as well. Was amazed at how he tackled it all and got the job done. One panel came loose and got bent on one of the very stormy night, some weeks later. He came back out and replaced it all. Was a complete pleasure to talk to and won't hesitate to call him again. Have recommended to my neighbors as well."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

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.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.
