"Mr. Locklear paid attention to detail and did not rush through the job as I have seen in other pieces of mine in the past. His work has shown me that he is a master at his craft and would recommend him over any custom builder on the east coast."

"Israel Garcia did a excellent job at my home. He rebuilt my porch's support structure which was sagging and close to collapse. He removed the entire flooring, rebuilt the support and leveled it. Then he reinstalled the Trex floor. He also built new stairs. He saved me a lot of money in materi and labor. He was methodical and highly efficient in his approach. Highly recommend. Hard worker and honest. Pastor Joe"

"Don Wherren's work is exceptional. Walls were removed, every piece of woodwork from ceiling to floor was upgraded, custom made cabinets for television, computer, fire place mantel, book shelves, storage were built. Additionally, one contractor was hired years ago and never completed the work on adding a laundry room. Mr. Wherren came in and completed all the work, pulling all permits required and ensuring everything was built to code. I would not hesitate hiring him again or recommending him to others."

Custom woodworking at it's finest. Custom cabinetry to stair renovations, custom closet shelving fireplace mantels ,small renovation. I love doing it all. I have a passion/ obsession with woodworking. I take take great pride in what I do attention to every detail. Most customers think I'm even too picky. I grew up around it between my grandfather and my dad and my uncles around it the whole life.

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.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.
