"I am writing Home Advisor to let them know how pleased I am with the service I received from JLC building company. The latest home improvement Jay completed for my wife and I was a combination, carport / deck. I had Jay expand the Inlaw apartment in the lower level of our house. This expansion took over my garage which lead to the need for a carport. Jay constructed the carport with pressure-treated beams and it came out great. However, it was the deck above the carport that really stands out. Jay used composite decking that was secured to the carport. He used fasteners that locked in the decking without the need to drill holes in the decking itself. This resulted in a beautiful deck that did not have hundreds of lines where the screws fasten the decking to the framework. Jay, then recommended a dark railing system that blended in with the surrounding woods. The dark railing is so much better than the white railing we have on the other side of our house. That white railing was here when we purchased the home and it optically closes in the deck and draws your attention away from the natural surroundings. After completing the deck, Jayâ s crew removed a window and installed an awesome slider. The slider gives us access to the huge deck from our middle floor. It has adjustable louvers inside the glass which allows us to view the beautiful outdoors or choose to have privacy without the need for drapes. Jay finished the job with white shiplap inside which accented the living room perfectly. I am not sure what our next project might be but I do know that JLC builders will be doing the work. Rick"

Hello,\n\nMy name is Adam. \n\nI just started my own LLC doing carpentry. I’ve done carpentry throughout my life, and professionally for three years. I have also worked as a fireman, and rock climbing guide, a painter, and a cobbler. I enjoy using really big saws (of all kinds, chainsaws included) and working with big pieces of timber. I love making my work clean and precise. I also enjoy making big oil paintings and stretching my own canvases. Angi asked me to write a little about myself. How’s that?
