"Ralph began working on our deck a day or two before a particularly shocking and difficult loss for our family. From start to finish, he was professioanl, caring, warm and relatable, and went above and beyond for this project. He respected our budget while also paying attention to the small details we hadn't thought of. He was highly communicative and flexible in his process. With what a catastrophic event we had just lived through at the time he was here, it was comforting to know we had a man like Ralph- along with his crew- taking such good care of us and our house during the whole ordeal. And now we have a beautiful new mudroom/office space to enjoy! I give him my highest recommendation and would have him back at my house for any additional work that crops up for us any time with zero hesitation. Thanks, again, Ralph! The new room looks amazing."

"The renovation of our 1950's bathroom has been completed and it is a piece of art. The entire project was handled by Johnny C. with excellence. Johnny was easy to work with and shared his expertise and knowledge to help us with the process. Some of our design choices did pose a challenge for him but he executed those trouble spots expertly. This renovation had a huge tile component and he did a beautiful job with the wall and floor tile we chose. We now have a really stunning bathroom that is in keeping with the vintage age of the home. From our initial meeting we were comfortable with what he offered: a really fair price, a couple of consultations prior to the work beginning which helped us select our materials and very responsive to our questions throughout the process. Each day Johnny and his assistant, Danny, arrived on time. At the end of each day, Danny did an excellent job of cleaning up the work area and leaving things in the best possible condition. Johnny is very conscientious about returning the home to the owners so things can remain as normal as possible through the process. We recommend Johnny highly for his excellent workmanship, his friendly personality, his more than fair price and the easy manner of communication."

"Ryan came on time and quickly determined how the job should be done. He left the job area clean. I asked for an estimate for painting a wall. He was knowledgeable about the paint to use and gave me a reasonable quote"

"I had the pleasure of working with Dino and Pete of Platinum Construction to complete my living room, entry way and closet floor. Although it was a small project for them we felt as though it was handled with the same care and professionalism as the larger projects they do. As well as being completed in a timely manner. Pete and his helper did a great job. They were prompt at 8am both mornings, very informative and professional through the project. Should I need another project done they will be the first ones I reach out to!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project.
