"I would highly recommend hiring Fisher’s contracting! This was my first big remodeling project as a first time homeowner and the entire experience working with them was amazing! From the first consultation phone call I had with Tom, he listened to all of my ideas, was very patient with any requests and was incredibly flexible with my budget. At every step, he kept me updated on any delays or changes and sent me photos everyday so I could see progress. It was a great experience and I’m so happy with the results!"

"The guys did great work at a fair price. Once the weather finally cleared they were able to come and completed the brick work in one day. I had a question about part of the job possibly not being done. They came back out the week I called to confirm/take care of it. Everyone that I had contact with was knowledgeable, nice and responsive."

"I engaged Stonebrook Building Services to remodel my basement after having some rod holes and cracks repaired. They were very professional and adhered to the initial schedule. They make a couple of recommendation that help make the outcome better. I had some glass block windows and some steel framed windows. Installing glass block windows during the project resulted in more natural ight, better security and finished appearance. And replacing the old sump pump and water backup sump pump gave me more peace of mind. The finished basement in now very nice and it exceeded my expectations. I am very pleased with the project. I plan to use them for a few smaller project this year. I highly recommend them."

"Guy can really do it all. Heâ s my first call when we have an issue at a rental that needs to be fixed quickly or at an Airbnb when it needs to get done perfectly! Iâ ve used him more for repairs but seeing his workmanship, Iâ d use him for renovations as well. I trust him in our house, heâ s always more than fair and honest."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

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.
