"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."

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.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

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.

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

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.
