"Jared at Northland Construction was the lowest bid, but that's not why we hired him. He seemed very honest and knowledgeable about the project. They didn't use scaffolding like the others wanted to. The just used ladders. They arrived on time, did the work, and completed on time. At one point I went to ask a question and he apologized for his phone talking to him, which I didn't care about at all, but he was listening to a bible study podcast while he worked, which my wife and I thought was very cool. After the work was done, we asked if he could give us a price to fix a door that was not closing properly. He just fixed it and would not accept any payment for it. We tried to hand him a $100 bill, but he would not take it. Jared is a great contractor and a good man. We cannot recommend him highly enough and will definitely use him for any future projects."

Customers say: Quality work

"Would definitely recommend Apple View! We hired him to replace our decking with composite boards, but he did so much more for us. When removing the boards he discovered some of the supports were starting to rot due to carpenter ants, and he replaced those and basically shored up the entire deck. He is very meticulous in his work and makes sure everything is safe and sturdy. We are very happy with the results!"

"This was the second project that I have hired TCH to do. It's so nice to be able to hire one contractor and have the same people do all of the work (plumbing, carpentry, tile work, etc.,) instead of having to hire a different company for each part of the project, or have a company sub out the work. TCH has the best personnel, always punctual and very cooperative. Regularly checking with me to be sure the job gets done the way I expected. They were very careful to protect all areas from dust and debris and made an exceptional effort to clean up at the end of each day and when the job was completed. I also think the price was reasonable. Thanks go out to both Cory's for all of their hard work. Another expert job by TCH."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

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.
