"Recently had Quality Carpentry and Remodeling LLC build/replace the stairs on my deck, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the very beginning, Tom was professional, communicative, and provided a clear, fair quote. He showed up exactly when he said he would and completed the project on time. The craftsmanship is outstanding—the stairs are incredibly sturdy, perfectly level, and look fantastic. He even made sure to clean up the work area completely before leaving. I highly recommend Quality Carpentry and Remodeling LLC to anyone needing quality deck work!"
"Matt is fantastic! I hired him to do some carpentry work. I know nothing about such things, and he made sure to explain everything—what he recommended, different things he could do, why he was doing certain things—and he included me in every step of the process. In addition, he is very responsive and communicates really well and PROMPTLY! He takes his work seriously, and it shows. I’ll definitely be hiring him again, and I highly recommend him!"
"Job was completed in 1 day and could not be more pleased. They had me the customer in mind and were very reasonable with quote. They went beyond my expectations. The crew was very able and professional. I would recommend custom exteriors for any carpentry work needed. Very pleased."
"Mike did a great job. He did a very thorough inspection and repaired the parts of the deck that were weak. His crew only took two days to finish the job."

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.
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.
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.
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.
Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.
