"Brad with Deck It Out did an awesome job with our massive basement remodel (complete with family room, fireplace, work out area, and full bath). We also had him do a job installing spray foam insulation above our garage to correct a heating/cooling issue we were having in a room above it. He was on time, answered all of our questions professionally, easy to get in contact with, and his customer service was amazing.The quality of his work is outstanding, we are very happy with everything he did for us. We are planning to have our deck redone in the future and there's no one else to even consider for the job. Brad's the best contractor we've worked with."

"I had hired Deck and Shed Pros to build a new deck with a screen and I am thrilled with the outcome. My new deck is gorgeous! Their customer service is excellent and the quality of work is outstanding. It was a pleasure working with Jim (owner) and Simon (master carpenter and craftsman). I highly recommend this company."

He and his coworkers have provided excellent carpentry and minor plumbing/electrical services for a wide variety of projects, including but not limited to floor installation, siding repairs, painting, cleaning, tree removal, and preparation/repair of properties being put up for sale. Love the "one stop shopping" expertise he provides. Recommend him without hesitation."

"LeonPro Services is simply outstanding. Otar is a perfectionist and his work shows it. I asked him to repair the tongue and groove flooring and parts of the railing on a large wrap around porch His carpentry skills were truly excellent. He pressured washed, sanded and cleaned it, followed by a meticulous staining job. This entire porch, a central feature of my century old house, looks better than the day it was built and painted 25 years ago. He also did an excellent job repairing a split rail fence surrounding my ¾ acre property. I will hire him again without hesitation for any future work."

Carpentry FAQs, 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.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

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.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.
