"Tom replaced the baseboard trim throughout our house. He did a nice job on the trim and it was obvious he takes pride in his work. My only complaint is that his services seem very expensive, If you break the job down by the hour he charged just under $60/hr. so you might want to think about getting multiple estimates."

"I hired Sauba Constructions to build a small balcony deck. I had a great experience with them. They were very prompt and professional with the estimate I requested as well as with the work that was contracted. They arrived on time to do the work on two of the hottest days we've had and finished ahead of schedule. The workers were friendly and weren't afraid to ask questions to make sure they completed the job to my satisfaction. They also cleaned up the premises afterward. I highly recommend Sauba Constructions!"

"I wanted a screen porch added to the back of my house, and they did a really lovely job. I wanted something quite simple, and they didn't at any point pressure me to make it more elaborate or more expensive. The final result is just what I wanted - simple, really well constructed, and beautiful. They're very easy to work with. Highly recommend."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.
