"I needed 3 support posts for an elevated deck replaced. Mr. Gutierrez and his crew just completed the project and the workmanship is excellent. I highly recommend Mr. Gutierrez for a most reasonable bid and service. Walter P. in Charlotte."

"I found Al through Nextdoor.com. He called back quickly to make an appointment for a measure and quote. He was ontime, made a model of what was to be done on his computer and printed a picture to show me what he was planning to do. He is very thorough with details. If you need a professional skilled carpenter please give Al a call. You wonâ  t regret it."

"Charlie is friendly, easy to talk to, professional, meticulous, and methodical. He rescued our deck from the mess it was originally. He made the best of a VERY poorly executed initial build (we FIRED original guy and crews)! Would love to see what he could do as a new build."

"Has an affiliaited company, CaroBuild, which is what decking and fencing work is performed under. Our project involved Trex redecking, building a new fence, redoing the front porch/steps and some smaller wood-related projects. Total cost approx. $17.5K; reasonable. Project took 9 days. Craftsmanship of the work was excellent. Ben, the owner is very friendly, helpful, responsive and easy to work with. His staff is also friendly, courteous and respectful. Should the need arise, I would definitely hire them again."

"Carlos with Red Bird did an excellent job building our wall. He was very responsive throughout the process and kept us informed every step of the way. When some subcontractors failed to show up, Carlos didn’t make excuses — he showed up himself and made sure the work was done right. The quality of the finished wall is beautiful and exceeded our expectations. I’d highly recommend Red Bird and Carlos to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off.
