James from T-doe’s Top Notch Carpentry was polite and professional. He arrived on time and We had a discussion on the project to be done. He gave me an estimate which we agreed on, and then he returned and completed his work to my satisfaction. I would definitely hire him again.

Outstanding work! the price was very reasonable, and I was able to schedule an additional project with this company, as Home Advisor, despite their promise to do so, failed to find a contractor for a carpentry project. My Home Advisor reps, Diana and De'ja dropped the ball on this one.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

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.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.
