Customers say: Quality work

"I hired Lamp Property Development to build my office building for me. They did a great job on the design! They also did a great job on the construction, from the ground up. I was so pleased with Matthew Lamp and his crew. They were professional and had everything done on time. I was very happy with the entire experience and would highly recommend them for whatever project you are about to undertake. I used them for several projects and they are my number one go to contractor."

"Malcolm and his crew were professional and did a great job. He actually came back to finish a small portion of the job (I have learned most don't, sadly). He is honest, helpful and diligent. You just don't find this very often. I love my windows, my shutters look fabulous; I've gotten messages left in my mailbox asking me where I got them. We're planning to use him again this year and look forward to it."

"Hadden s construction was a great experience from start to finish. They were very professional and very pleasant to deal with. Todd did what he said he would do and kept me informed of any situation that came up that wasn t discussed in the contract. My wife works nights and sleeps days and they were very respectful of that. The kind of contractor I wish I would have found after the flood. I dreaded dealing with another contractor for the last couple years but I lucked out this time. Highly recommend"

"From start to finish it was a great experience. I have had some mishaps in the past with other contractors and this was the best experience so far. Very honest, punctual and neat. The finish work is beautiful and I can’t ask for anything better than what I received. I would recommend them to anyone!!! 5 Stars"

"We were originally quoted $900 for a three day job. The job only took one day. The bill was not reduced accordingly. In advance of the job, the owners were less than prompt in returning calls, emails, texts to set up the quote, arrange a date for the work, etc."

"It went really well. The technicians gave me an excellent overview of what needed to be done so that we could work w/permitting, as inspectors, and our local electric company. In short they were knowledgeable, considerate, and really easy to work with."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.
