"I am so glad I went with B. Broussard Construction. I had previously tried to hire another contractor but he never showed up. After a few weeks of that contractor not showing up, I decided to go else where. That is when I found B.Broussard Construction. They got right to it so quick and it didnâ t take them but a few days. I did not get a chance to meet Brad in person but my mother did. I was informed he was very kind and all around good man. I was very impressed with their work, the timely manner it took them to complete it, and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to renovate their home. I would definitely use them again in the future for other projects! God Bless :)"

"First of all he's honest because everyone else wanted to charge me $800-$1200 dollars to relevel my trailer home. Eric came out and seen it was a simple fix and did it for $250 I was so impressed I decided to give him more work to clean my yard from storm damage and he and his helpers did a wonderful job they were fast efficient and respectful.And for the first time hiring handymen I didn't have to repeat myself to him Eric did exactly what I asked him to do Very Very impressed"

"Danny with Lifetime Roofing & Construction has a very professional crew. They were in and out in one day so we didn't have to deal with many disruptions or any loud noises. They did great. I'd recommend them for any roofing, remodeling, or construction job you have."

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

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. 

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.
