I started this company because I love the work, and my family time is more important than my previous career thought it was. My main focus is trim carpentry, but as you can see in the photos I'm capable of much more. I have a passion for doing the job right, I'm a firm believer in honesty, and I welcome all ideas and input-after all, in the end it's the clients project. Added bonus-I'm clean and dependable.

"He was hard working and very efficient. I would highly recommend him for any of your carpentry projects. He was a delight to have at the house."

"I honestly can’t say enough good things about this company. I saw their information on the local neighborhood website and contacted. They were there in three days to do the estimate and were there doing the job in a week. It was sweltering heat and bad smoke from the Canadian wildfires but they were out there working and doing a great job. So happy I found them and will definitely use them again the next time I have a project. "

AS A SEMI-RETIRED GENERAL CONTRACTOR WITH 45 YEARS IN THE TRADE, I HAVE THE LICENSES, BONDING AND ABILITY TO DO ANYTHING CONSTRUCTION RELATED. I LIKE SMALLER PROJECTS AND COMING UP WITH CREATIVE SOLUTIONS. AREAS OF SERVICE ARE THE IRON RIVER, WI AREA, ASHLAND AND THE SOUTH SHORE, BUT COULD EXTEND TO THE TWIN PORTS. Spend winter months in Florida

"I'm very pleased. The response was prompt and the repair was expertly done. The communication was perfect and friendly. I highly recommend this company!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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.

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.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.
