“Transform your home with our expert carpentry finishes. From stunning doors and elegant windows to flawless floors and custom decks, we bring craftsmanship and quality to every project. Trust us to elevate your space with precision and style.”

"We recently had new railings installed on our renewed deck, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the contractor was professional, responsive, and detail-oriented. They showed up on time, worked efficiently, and kept the site clean throughout the process. The craftsmanship is outstanding. Our deck not only feels safer but also looks amazing. The railings completely transformed the space and gave it a fresh, polished look. What really stood out was the contractor’s pride in their work and their willingness to go the extra mile to make sure every detail was perfect. They listened to our ideas, made thoughtful suggestions, and delivered a final product that exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality deck or railing work. If you want a reliable professional who combines skill with great customer service, this is the contractor to call!"

"We just had our roof replaced by Cody and his team. Everything from start to finish was done professionally and skillfully. The roof looks great. His team came in, stripped the old roof off, got the job done quickly and cleaned up every single thing that fell in my yard. Amazing crew. Fantastic job."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

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.

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.
