"We are very pleased with our new deck and screened porch. We met with four other companies, and North Carolina Deck and Railing was by far the best choice. They listened to what we wanted, worked with us to stay within our budget and gave us ideas to build the porch just as we had envisioned it. Corey was easy to work with and Ross and his crew were professional and kept the lines of communication open, checking with us frequently to make sure we were getting what we wanted. The work was completed in a timely manner and the crew did a great job of keeping things cleaned up at the end of each day. We have already received many compliments on both the deck and porch and have recommended North Carolina Deck and Rail to several neighbors. Their workmanship, communication and professionalism was outstanding."

"I hired Register Repair Services to repair my 35 years old deck. They did splendid job and though there were few days delay due to medical issues they finished the job very well. They responded to questions with patience and professionalism. Would hire them again and recommend the crew to anyone wanting to build new deck. Overall, quality work at affordable price.

"Looking for a reliable contractor for fencing, deck work and so much more? Forrest is incredibly honest, upfront, and offers reasonable prices. They recently completed a fence and deck project for us, and the results were phenomenal. Despite a few challenges along the way (we have a difficult yard), Forrest kept us informed every step of the way. Definitely a small business worthy of support and we will definitely be using them in the future."

"Miguel and his crew came to replace our entire backyard fence as well as add a gate to a section of fence. The value for what he did was very worth it. His price for fence replacement was more than half the price of a larger company. There were a lot of small details of the finished job that we let slide due to the price we paid (left some trash behind, didn't dispose of some of the fence post foundations) I will be honest and say that it was a bit difficult to communicate with Miguel at times but we were able to talk through what I was looking for. He is very friendly and respectful and I look forward to hiring him for other contracting jobs around our house!"

"Benito is absolutely AMAZING to work with. His team built our dream patio for our new home including pouring the concrete, building a roof and running electricity. His quote came in much better than other larger companies. His team was able to complete the project in 2 weeks. He presented ideas that helped us make the space better. I was in constant contact with Benito throughout the project via texts and in-person conversations that really made sure we were on the same page. This addition has transformed our home and we couldn’t be more happy with how this turned out."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects.
