"These guys showed up 8am every morning and worked past 6pm for two working weeks. That's rare to see. Most builders show up infrequently and leave stuff unfinished for days and days. That nightmare didn't happen here. The estimate was adhered to. We didn't have any cost overruns. I have only one bathroom in the house and they had to accommodate that, which they did by working quickly. The bathroom looks great. Workmanship is what I had anticipated. These guys have a lot of skills and can do everything: electrical, plumbing, tiling, construction, etc. These days it's hard to find honest, respectful, hard working people who will do what they can to please the homeowner, so I was happy to find this company. I got nowhere with the big box stores or fancy bathroom remodelling places which couldn't be bothered with my small bathroom and/or came up with outrageous estimates and unacceptable time frames. Mr. Lockhart was easy to work with and turned out to be very reliable."

"After a storm completely demolished our detached two car garage, we needed the old building demolished and cleaned off down to the slab and then completely reconstruct it. Ragsdale was easy to work with, communicated frequently, and completed an extremely high-quality end result. Along the way they made suggestions about how to improve quality and keep cost down. I would absolutely use them again for another project."

"The building that was painted is a two story commercial building. A New Look Painting painted the interior of the building and did a very professional job. Employees were very cordial, respectful and a pleasure to work with. The owner assured me he would not leave the job site until I was satisfied with the work. He is honorable and a man of his word. Very satisfied!"

Customers say: True professional

"Mark and his employees were very professional. Mark was able to bring my ideas to life when building an interior wall inside my store. The final product exceeded all of my expectations. I have since hired Mark to expand my office, change out light fixtures and replace my hot water heater. He was able to work around my store hours to ensure the safety of my customers and staff. All work was completed in a timely manner. I will continue to hire Mark for all of my projects."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

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.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.
