"Needed fencing installed to keep groundhogs from taking up residence under our deck. Brady came up with a creative and complete solution that made sure the varmints were out and would not return. Would use again."

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

I’m a full-time carpenter and remodeling contractor based here in North Carolina, and I take on select side projects for homeowners who want quality work done right the first time.\n\nMy background is in residential remodeling and carpentry, with hands-on experience in everything from framing and structural work to finish carpentry and detailed installs. I’ve spent years working on full home renovations, investment properties, and custom projects, so I understand not just how to build something — but how it needs to perform long-term.\n\nFor smaller jobs and side work, I focus on projects where craftsmanship actually matters. That includes things like:\n\n* Deck repairs and framing\n* Interior carpentry (trim, doors, accent walls)\n* Exterior repairs (siding, fascia, rot repair)\n* Flashing and water management issues\n* Punch-list and “fix it right” work after other contractors\n*Backsplash install and tile repair \n*Drywall repair \n*Interior and exterior painting

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

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.

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

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.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
