"Matthew did numerous projects for me. Built me an entire new fence to replace an old one, repaired an aging deck, and repaired my lawn shed. Work was done in a timely manner, work was very well done. I highly recommend CPR to anyone needing projects done well and priced fairly. Will hire Matthew again."

"Kent did a great job with our basement remodel.. He was quick with his very reasonable quote and did an excellent job. He came up with a solution for our bathroom/closet addition that we hadnâ t thought about before. The project took longer than either of us expected, but it was worth the wait. Most of that was due to it being an old basement addition and things just being more difficult to work around than anticipated. I would most definitely hire him again."

"David and his crew provided excellent service. They created a gravel pad for a storage shed and it looks amazing. They were reasonably priced and completed the work within 24 hours once the bid was accepted. I will definitely use Four Seasons for future projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

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.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.
