"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!"

"We were having our wood floors refinished. The flooring company recommended The Fixit Friends to move appliances, furniture, etc. When we made our appointed we spoke with Monique who was exceptionally friendly and professional. Chris and Patrick came a long way (Auburn Hills) to work with us. Both guys were professional and friendly. All of our work was completed in an hour. We had another appointment for Chris and Patrick to return and put things back together. They arrived at the appointed time and again the work was completed in little over and hour. We highly recommend The Fixit Friends!"

"Garrett, Nadia, and Roland delivered a stress free deck building experience. Garrett was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He guided us through color and design choices, kept the project on track, and made sure we were happy every step of the way. Nadia has clear communication with us and Roland ensured we were receiving top-notch craftsmanship, every detail was handled with care. Garrett and Roland were in contact with us frequently including in stopping by ensured the job ran smoothly and checked in with us at the end to make sure we were happy with the result. The result is a beautiful, sturdy deck we’ll enjoy for years. We couldn’t be happier with our deck. We’ve gotten so many compliments already. There’s no better gathering place, we have built memories that will last a lifetime with friends and family on our new deck!"

"My HOA decided I needed skirting on my condo deck by June 2025. Jeremiah Blankenship came out & gave an estimate on the day that I put my info into Home Advisor. Taking advantage of a few sunny March days, he & his associate finished the job in one day for the given estimate. They put in the skirting complete with access door & replaced rail caps & a board. Could not be more pleased with the prompt attention, professionalism and outstanding work."

"Mike and Johnny did a great job! They gave a good quote and said they could start the following week. They did the job faster than quoted and were very meticulous with the details. They were even on their hands and knee wiping dust off our floors before they left each day. Already looking at hiring for another project we are working on!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

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.
