"Adam did an excellent job building our garage from the ground up. He was excellent to work with. Not only was he very professional, so were the subcontractors that he hired. Everyone was knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Our project required that a road be built to accommodate large trucks in the springtime. The project stayed on track and proceeded smoothly. We were never left wondering “what’s next?” Adam has great communication and stayed in touch to make sure we knew what was coming up and when. I would definitely recommend using Magic Frog Carpentry."

"Shane did a spectacular job! I had a few broken panes of glass and one fully broken out. He accommodated my work schedule to get a quote and was very helpful! He did an outstanding job and cleaned up after he was done. I am also thankful, often times I feel like people see the zip code and think there is a huge opportunity to up charge. I (we -my sister and I) inherited this house. I am fixing it up to sell it, while my kids finish high school. All that to say I am grateful he is reasonably priced! I can’t afford the overpriced offers I am getting on a regular basis. I would 💯 recommend!"

"Nothing stops this team of energetic, upbeat young men who work a tremendous number of hours each day and do not even stop for rainstorms in order to get a job done. Their price is reasonable, their work is great, their work ethic is amazing, and they take pride in their workmanship. Our roof is very big and has a lot of sections, which makes it complicated. But Building Brothers worked methodically and meticulously to do the job perfectly. They are also unfailingly polite and considerate. Not only did they do an excellent job, but they do the best cleanup I've ever seen. If I could give them a rating above 5, I would!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.

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.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.
