"I never contacted the provider or used this service in anyway. I have to
write this review so that the request to write this review stops
popping up.
The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit.

"Excellent - I ended up hiring someone to help with shopping and finishing piece - waste of time and money. Jill's service was by far the most useful and best value in my decorating process.

Small jobs welcome

I was born and raised in lake county, october nineteen sixty four. My father was a contractor in the 60s through 2015. I also had an uncle that was a contractor here in Lake County and an uncle. That is a contractor up in Traverse City. I worked with all of them from the 70s on. Mostly worked for my dad until 1988 when I got my residential builders license. Working here in Lake County, you had to learn to do all of the jobs yourself. You had to learn to do concrete, foundations, lay blocks, framing, build rafters, do roofing shingles or metal roofing. Set windows do siding. Build additions, garages, pole barn, porches, decks, sheds. Do installation, drywall, finished trim.\nFlooring ceramic, tile hardwood floors, laminate flooring. Do trim work ect. I do have subcontractors that I work with. I did the remodel job on the dial a ride building in lake county. I did the Idlewild welcome signs on US 10. I worked with Habitat for Humanity.\nFor the last 8 years. Hopefully hope we can do busi\n\n

Unfinished 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.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

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.
