"Excellent job! It was clear they are experienced carpenters and painters and take pride in producing quality results. Brothers Carpentry and Paint replaced one exterior door with framing and replaced several interior doors. This included new knobs and for some doors, new hinges. They also painted many of the interior doors. They also made some sheet rock and baseboard repairs for us. Carlos was wonderful to work with, professional and patiently answered any questions I had. Will definitely call them for future projects and would highly recommend them!"

"Miguel and his crew came to replace our entire backyard fence as well as add a gate to a section of fence. The value for what he did was very worth it. His price for fence replacement was more than half the price of a larger company. There were a lot of small details of the finished job that we let slide due to the price we paid (left some trash behind, didn't dispose of some of the fence post foundations) I will be honest and say that it was a bit difficult to communicate with Miguel at times but we were able to talk through what I was looking for. He is very friendly and respectful and I look forward to hiring him for other contracting jobs around our house!"

"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!"

"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."

"Roberto did a great job. I used him immediately for two other projects based on the excellent work, speed of completion and fair pricing of the pool deck. He also built a privacy fence and replaced a rotting deck. I am keeping him in my list of approved pros and will use him in the future without hesitation."

"Oscar and his crew did a very thorough and excellent job of replacing our 20+ year old deck boards with new composite material. The workmanship was excellent and the contractor was very responsive to my needs and desires. I would highly recommend Deck Pro Innovations."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry.
