"I love it! Framing and hanging sliding doors that separated kitchen from living room. This is a project that I have wanted to do for a long time and finally got it completed. I own a manufactured home (or as it is called now a mobile home). These homes usually have unique openings and require customized or special orders. John was extremely helpful and brought my vision of what I wanted into reality. He also provided some suggestions which proved to be extremely beneficial. He was quick and efficient with his work. John framed the space from floor to ceiling. John did framing, molding and trim, dry wall (in the space above the doors on both sides), sanded and painted. I will definitely use him in the future and highly recommend this service."

"I asked them to remodel a 150 year old farmhouse for me so I could stay in my home and able to live comfortably with everything on the main floor as I am 88. They have done a beautiful job. They are a pleasure & joy to have around. When theyâ re here. His young man is an amazing painter and carpenter. They have gone out of their way to make sure I was comfortable & not put out. Whenever they left the house was clean. I am going to hire them again and recommend them to my friends. I didnâ t know them before but now I consider them to be my friends"

"They created a new patio door screen for my new rental unit. From the first call to get a quote and then hiring them to do the job, I was so impressed with the excellent customer service and professionalism. They came to do the proper measurements and kept me informed of the time frame before installing was happening. My new screen door is perfect and I am so happy with the product and I tell everyone about this company and excellent customer service I received. Thank you much from a very satisfied customer."

"Construction not started within 4 to 6 weeks as contracted for. Whenever I called I was told they were very busy. If that busy, the company should not have offered the contract with the start as stated. I would have contacted another company. Contract signed June 3, 2017. Construction started August 17, 2017. The carpenters sent were courteous and professional. I am pleased with their work, but think management needs improvement."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.
