"Installed Crown Molding about 175 linear feet in Living Room, Kitchen and hallways. Made new house look 100 percent better. Price was lowest of five quotes. Quality of work exceptional. Integrity and honesty, up there with the best. Painters were good but need to do a better job of cleaning up after themselves. Still 5 star recommendation."

"Unfortunately, we had a disappointing experience with Renew Crew of Raleigh. Communication was a problem, as we had to follow up several times with the company to ask about scheduling, billing errors and other details. When the job started, there were several problems along the way. The biggest problem was that the technicians did not protect from their overspray, so there was excessive stain sprayed on our lawn, our gate hardware and other hardscaping, as well as some overspray on the house and downspouts. The crew also stained 60’ of our neighbor’s fence that was supposed to be power washed only. Ultimately, the fence turned out beautifully, and the owner did take appropriate steps to remediate the problems, but the entire process was frustrating from start to finish."

"Most I called didn't have the skills needed to cut in and hang an exterior entrance door where there wasn't before. They would happily come out and replace one, but cutting a hole in the house, framing in a header and support studs, with minimal disturbance to drywall while making it look like from the outside like the door had always been there takes true skill. Glenn has that skill and made it look easy. Highly recommend."

"He, and an associate got here 10 minutes early. They have erected the type of ceiling storage before! The work was completed in about an hour ( the instructions said it would take 2-5 hours). Great job, good guy! We put all our Christmas stuff up there this afternoon."

"Troy and Matt did a fantastic job framing and installing custom surround for a new fireplace and prepping for the install of a barn door on the guest bathroom. TJ did a good job gutting an office and prepping and painting. I would without a drought hire them again and actually have some projects for next spring"

"We hired Christian to redo our deck and it was an INCREDIBLE experience. We had some unexpected additional repairs (rotted wood) along the way that he communicated through and we got it done! we had a tight deadline and he crushed it. The deck is beautiful and well made and he went above and beyond with other things we needed (hauling and screening our porch). I 12/10 recommend him for any building or repair projects. He will be helping us with our property from here on out!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

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. 

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

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.
