"Highly recommend. I had several repairs needed around my house. Gault met with me within one day, carefully reviewed all of my items, and provided thoughtful perspectives. I expressed that one repair was particularly urgent and Gault worked with me to have the work performed the very next day. The work was done with very high quality and professionalism. I am very satisfied and look forward to potential future engagements. The urgent work we had done was replacing a load bearing 6x6 leg on my screened-in porch."

"I had my siding replaced with HGE. The crew was fantastic, couldn't ask for no better. Jon and Matthew were my project managers for the process and installation. They were very good listeners for all questions and concerns throughout the process which I greatly appreciated. Overall I am very happy with the outcome of the siding and the job they did. If you want quality work and workers that care about what they are doing, I would highly recommend HGE to anyone!"

Customers say: Quick response

Rob's Custom Carpentry offers services to the Charlotte, NC Metro Area. With over 43 years of experience, we take great pride in our craftsmanship and offering our customers the "Midas Touch" in satisfaction! \n\nIt all started one summer in 1974 when I picked up my Army shovel my Dad had given me and I started digging a basement under the crawl space of our house. The reason for digging a full size basement under a house with only a crawl space at the time was to build my mother a tornado shelter. An F-4 Tornado had recently struck a small town only 15 miles away and had scared my Mom to death! \n\nI was 14 years old at the time but quite advanced in construction methods due to my vast experience from my earlier years as construction foreman of "The Sandbox"!\n\nWhether you're building or remodeling or you need your Basement or Attic space finished off, please sent us a message with your contact info and we will get in touch with you as soon as possible.

"Needed fencing installed to keep groundhogs from taking up residence under our deck. Brady came up with a creative and complete solution that made sure the varmints were out and would not return. Would use again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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. 

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.

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.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.
