Hello, my name is Aaron, and I'm a 4th generation carpenter, starting back nearly 100 years ago, with my great grandpa Oscar, a cabinet maker in northern, rural NY. I am licensed and insured and have been given an A+ rating by the Better Business Bureau. Our company slogan is "if you're not happy, we're not done yet". Our goal is to be your go to home improvement provider, and hopefully, for you to refer us to family and friends as well. In order to achieve that goal, we strive to do quality work at an affordable price and we stand behind everything we do. Our area of expertise is residential remodeling. This is what we SPECIALIZE in! Many other companies know how to do things in a new construction setting, but they don't have the decades of experience working on old houses like we do! Our years of experience working on old homes gives us the foresight to ensure your job will be done correctly, and as efficiently as possible, without creating problems for you down the road, or incurring unneeded expenses. If you have a project you need help on, please please give us a call! We are looking forward to helping you out! P.S. Angileads charges alot of money to contact customers on here, so if you just have questions, or not sure if you want to start a project, don't create a lead, look me up on Google or Facebook instead and I'll be happy to chat about what you're dealing with. Thanks

"Aaron Titus did a beautiful job in a timely manner. He was pleasant to work with and went above and beyond the scope of the job to ensure we were pleased,"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

DIY is possible, but professional construction ensures structural integrity and proper anchoring.

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.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.
