"Dustin did an OUTSTANDING job by installing all of the curtains and special rods which came with the installation. He made adjustments with all the curtains and kept me informed on each stage of the installation. Dustin also installed a grab bar in our masterbathroom. He completed the job in a timely, professional fashion. He has a wealth of experience too! We highly recommend Dustin James Home Repairs for all your odd jobs in and around your home."

"Large deck project, re-build/replacement of railing boards and flooring. Nathan and his assistant were outstanding. Nathan was very respectful, thorough in his descriptions of work being done. Organized in materials ordering and on-site placement; excellent clean-up at end of each day. Communicated via phone and text in timely manner, good follow-up to my questions. Worked parts of two days in pouring rain and very hot temps to keep things moving. I recommended him to my two neighbors. R3 is “customer service” in action! Very refreshing experience. Plan to use again. Thanks, Nathan."

"We had the pleasure of working with Mr. Casey on various carpentry projects, even a custom treehouse project, and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the results. From start to finish, he demonstrated exceptional craftsmanship, attention to detail, and a genuine commitment to quality. The finished product exceeded our expectations—sturdy, beautifully constructed, and built to last. Even more impressive was the affordability of the project, especially considering the high level of workmanship involved. We highly recommend Mr. Casey to anyone looking for quality construction at a fair price."

"Abe did a custom cabinet build for my kitchen. He met with me to discuss my vision for the space - he gave me advice on the style & how it would best fit; He spent time to draw out my vision and took extra time to confirm fit & design. He does quality work at an affordable price - will use again and will recommend to others1"

"Perez Remodeling installed tile and bamboo floating floors throughout our home, and we love it! Reybel was wonderful to work with. He provided a free quote that was a better deal than the place we bought our wood from. He stayed in touch with us during the whole process and worked hard to finish in the timeframe we needed. Simply put, Perez Remodeling does great work at a fair price. I would definitely hire them again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

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.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

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.
