"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!"

"Sonny did a beautiful job on the build of our new deck! He came to the job prepared and was willing to put in long days to finish the deck in a timely manner. We couldn't be more satisfied with the quality of work he did for us! 10/10"

"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, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.
