"100% satisfied! Kyle's crew put a new tile floor down in my lanai and I could not be happier. The work was superb, his crew did a wonderful job and left the site sparkling clean. And Kyle was so easy to communicate with. He responded right away anytime I had a question. And the price was very fair. I will absolutely use Sternersen Construction for any future projects!"

"I had Amazing Renovations demolish an old deck and build back a new deck with composite decking. After getting the go ahead, Richy (Amazing Renovations) quickly coordinated the logistics. Richy was always available to answer any question we had, and he would monitor the progress and needs of the project on a daily basis. The removal of the old deck and the ordering and arrival of materials for the new deck happened in a timely manner. The personnel building the deck were professional/polite and very helpful. My wife and I were most pleased with the result of their work. Richy and his team left us with a beautiful deck that we will enjoy and cherish for many years to come. Me and my wife would highly recommend Amazing Renovations to anyone that has a similar building/renovation project in mind. Stuart A."

"I'm happy to share my thoughts on John Munn and his company, Coastal Built Construction. I recently had the pleasure of working with John and his team on a deck rebuild project at my house, and I have to say that I'm absolutely thrilled with the results. From the very beginning of the project, John was incredibly professional and attentive to detail. He took the time to listen to my ideas and concerns, and he was always available to answer any questions I had along the way. His team was efficient and kept the job site clean and spotless. He turned a tired old deck into a brand new impressive, modern structure with a set of infinity steps across the entire thing. The end result of the project was amazing. John and his team took great care to ensure that the deck was not only aesthetically pleasing but also structurally sound and safe for my family to use. Throughout the entire process, John was an absolute pleasure to work with. His professionalism and expertise were evident in every aspect of the project, and his dedication to his craft was truly impressive. I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to work with John and his team, and I would not hesitate to recommend Coastal Built Construction to anyone looking for high-quality construction work. From deck building to full renovations and construction, if you're looking for a true professional that delivers exceptional results, look no further than Coastal Built Construction and John Munn!"

"While I haven't hired them yet, due to my schedule, I intend to. Very impressed with the business owner and his quick response for an estimate for my fence. I will definitely be calling in the Fall for a new fence and other house repairs. I know he will provide quality service."

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

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

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.
