"David and crew were fantastic! They were very thorough, organized, reliable and professional. What we appreciated most was that David was a perfectionist, thought of everything and took care of little details that we didn’t even ask about. David, you are truly a joy to work with and an exceptionally skilled carpenter. We will use you for all of our future home renovations! Allison"

"Sal and his assistant did an awesome job! I was impressed that Sal arrived 20 minutes early, moved the assembled furniture to where I wanted them, and left my home office immaculate. Both men were professional, pleasant, and efficient. I would definitely hire him again and recommend Sal's Contracting to anyone needing furniture assembled."

"JP Signature Carpentry repaired a substantial problem that involved missing roof shingles and roof gaps that caused rotten below-carpet floor boards. They came on the day they promised and completed the big job on that day. They also tightened up our staircase railings nicely. We'll hire them again whenever we need help!"

"As a structural engineer, I get the opportunity to work with a lot of different contractors. Some good, some bad and some extraordinary at building new homes or additions. Art Bell is one of the extraordinary ones! His attention to detail and final product have always impressed me on each and every project that we have worked on together. I always rest well when I know Art is working on a project that I did the engineering on. He doesn’t cut corners anywhere during his builds and if he has a question, he reaches out to me for clarification instead of just guessing. Art is a Solid home builder, I can’t recommend him enough."

"Vince and the busy bee handyman team did a great job for us. Our handyman was a skilled carpenter and did a perfect job. The dog door we purchased wasn’t 100% airtight so Vinny the owner came at no cost and did a work around to help seal the place air came through the flap. Even though it was the door manufacturer issue Busy bee wanted us to be happy and also build a rain resistant cover at no additional cost. I’m so thankful that i found Vinny bc he will not stop until you are 100% happy with the project. 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.

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.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

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.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off.
