"It went very well. Mike is incredible!!! I had forgotten it was possible to have a really good experience with a contractor. When I first contacted him through Angies List he contacted me promptly, we met, discussed what I wanted (I provided him with a picture), he gave me a quote and we scheduled the work. Several weeks before the job he called to confirm our schedule and we texted the day before to confirm what time he would arrive. He was prompt and very professional. During the period I was waiting for the job to start, I changed my mind about what I wanted. The day we began I gave him another picture of a surround and we discussed What I liked about it and what I was trying to achieve. Then he began his creative process by cutting pieces of wood , beveling, etc. displaying them on the surround and showing me what was possible. Every step in the process was discussed and executed with my input. In the end he created something better than the picture or anything I had come up with. He really is an artist, very skillful, very smart and very, very efficient. The entire project took just a little more than 4 hours. I now have a new, beautiful custom surround for my fireplace and am very happy. Worth every penny spent on the project and a real pleasure to work with Mike. He’s a personable, quality, very skillful contractor, and I feel lucky to have found him. Will use him again."

"Professional from start to finish.  Within a day of getting the estimate they were at the house working with a team to get the job completed quickly.  Staff were fast, friendly, and the price was better than any other place we checked into.  We were extremely satisfied with the finished product.  Kevin W. and his team get 5 stars from us, and we will be contacting him for any future painting needs! Great job!

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.
