"Michelle did a great job with double checking all the specs for the material order and helping me select a color for the pre-stained interior doors and mouldings to blend the old with the new of our remodel project, and Justin did a fantastic job on the install. In addition to installing the doors and hardware, every door has a stop! Great attention to detail, ownership of their work, and generous with their time!"

"Dan was amazing. He is personable, kind, intelligent and has great ideas and know his craft. We had others bid and he had ideas, no one else had. He knows his subs and they respect him. He took extra time to show my wife how to learn things too. I am very particular and he was attentive to all our requests. We are exceptionally pleased with how our room turned out and as the process went, we created ideas with Dan for our next project, once some more money is saved for phase two of the basement. Thank you for great work."

"I would recommend him to anyone considering a remodeling project of any size. He was very responsive from the first phone call, listened well to our wants and needs and made several creative suggestions to help us. He gave us a very detailed proposal and kept us informed each step of the way throughout the project. He stayed on task, came when he said he would come, did more than we even expected from him and he was kind, neat and trustworthy. We will definitely use him again."

"Bill did all the finishing work on the basement we are completing. Bill started working for us after we had just let another trim worker go because of his poor workmanship. Bill not only showed excellent quality of work, but he fixed all of the mistakes the 1st guy we hired did. I also appreciated the time that Bill took to communicate the progression of the project every step along the way. We would definitely hire Bill again if we were to do another project!"

"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.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors.
