"Nick was great to work with. He was professional, prompt and thorough. He was undeterred by the little (and big) things that come up when working on older homes, and just plowed ahead and got things done. The workmanship is excellent and the job took exactly the time he said it would. Good guy. Good carpenter."

"-Upon our initial conversations, I could tell he was not comfortable performing any jobs too complicated (or I got the vibe it would take way longer than 2-3 hours) -Upon arrival, instead of building a rapport, as soon as I shook his hand he said "point me to the job" (which is fine for some homeowners, but it wasn't very comfortable having him in our home) -A little disappointed that the things we really wanted to do would've either taken him too long or he did not feel comfortable doing; -He worked much slower than expected, so it didn't feel like we really got a deal (took almost an hour to put anchors in the wall for the 1 mirror and 1 or 2 curtains) -For the things that were done, they were done pretty well (although I think I could've just asked a friend to help do these things) -He wasn't very friendly especially when introduced to my partner -Towards the end of our time, I guess he wanted to "inspect" the jammed doors we asked to be fixed; but he just kept opening and slamming them very loudly and forcefully until the rest of the time was up...."

"John came out and did an initial estimate of the work I wanted done.  He was very professional and gave me some ideas on how to deal with some other projects I need done.  The day the work was scheduled to be done he was here on time, completed the work and made sure everything was cleaned up after he was done.  He hauled everything that needed to be thrown out to the dumpster.

"Both Dave and Danny provided exceptional service during this project. They made sure that the door was installed with upgraded and weather proof framing. To complete this work they also installed a modernized deadbolt lock and connected the door to existing security systems. We couldn't be happier with the services rendered."

"Pro Custom Builders did a great job replacing the roofing and siding on our 1920s home. Tony took the extra time required to work through some unexpected aspects of an older home - I really appreciate his patience and attention to detail. He also kept me up to date on schedule changes and involved me at key decision points. Customer service was great! Tony also worked doggedly with our insurance provider to resolve the roof claim. Quality work and good value, I would hire him again!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

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.

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.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.
