"I am extremely pleased with my experience with Mr. Flynn. He was very professional came out and gave me an estimate. Double checked his estimate. Brought all the supplies tore down the old fence and posts, dug them up, put in new posts, concreting them in. Hand built the entire fence. Very good job. Excellent employee work with him. Got the job done in one day disposed of the old fence and post careful about my yard and other people’s yards that were adjacent to mine. Let me know whenever he was coming or being late. It was an awesome experience. I would highly recommend him and his company, Audubon fence and deck. I will be calling him back to do additional updates such as my gate and another section of fencing at a later time."

Hello! I work offshore and I'm looking for side work that will hopefully take off as a business some day. I won't get into anything that I don't fully understand. Looking forward to working with people and finding solutions.

I would like to consider myself a jack of all trades and with Tamara with me I can tackle pretty much any job, within reason. I can do almost everything in a house from the floor to the roof, no electrical. I'm a decent car mechanic and I'm pretty good with small engines also. I have years of experience in the furniture moving business which includes packing, padding, and loading the truck. I am very good at home and car audio installation.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes wall damage, but some holes for anchors or brackets are necessary for secure attachment. These can be easily patched if the bed is removed in the future, leaving your walls looking like new. Hiring a professional Murphy bed installer helps ensure minimal and repairable impact.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
