"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."

"What a pleasure working with Ragsdale Home Services. They responded very quickly, when I reached out to request a quote. Forrest responded timely to all my questions and a quick turn around as I changed and revamped my design. Forrest and his team worked diligently to complete my project and were always on the job early and finished in the timeframe promised. Very professional. My deck turned out even better than I could have imagined. Friends and family love it. I would absolutely recommend this company! What a pleasure to work with these craftsmen."

"The building that was painted is a two story commercial building. A New Look Painting painted the interior of the building and did a very professional job. Employees were very cordial, respectful and a pleasure to work with. The owner assured me he would not leave the job site until I was satisfied with the work. He is honorable and a man of his word. Very satisfied!"

"Nicole and her crew did multiple projects on top of the shingle repairs, including building a whole new front porch for us. Her communication was excellent, the prices were reasonable, and all the work was completed on-time. Would highly recommend Adonai for any of your home repair and construction needs."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

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.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.
