"I had Chad replace three entry doors in my house. Each door had its own challenges, including gaps between the door and frame and a wall that was not plumb. Chad was able to evaluate each of the issues and come up with a solution. In the end, I have three secure doors in my house. I highly recommend Chad and his workmanship."

"Gabriel and Cody did a wonderful job replacing our old and failed composite deck with beautiful, stained cedar. The new deck was built, updated with black metal spindles and stained. The existing arbor was reinforced, power washed and stained for the first time. It looks like new! They are good carpenters with attention to detail. We would highly recommend them!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.
