"Doug and Tony from Bluebird Construction were great! From a quick response to our inquiry, to a house visit to assess our issues, to a timely return for a list of repairs, they were very professional. The projects were completed in a timely manner and much to our satisfaction! One challenging project involving hiding hanging cable wires in a basement room and the work took ingenuity and really turned out well. They clearly are knowledgeable and take pride in their work. We highly recommend Bluebird Construction for the quality of their work at a fair price! Bill & Carol Boynton"

"Coleen & Kyle assisting us getting our Derry home ready for sale by painting the ceilings, walls and trim through-out the house. And add-ons such as the cabinets and upstairs vanity. They work efficiently as a team and helped transform the house into my vision. They took on unplanned work such as staining my deck and still finished a bit early. They were professional and arrived on time and kept things tidy. I would definitely recommend them and look for hiring them again in the future in the need arises."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

DIY is possible, but professional construction ensures structural integrity and proper anchoring.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes wall damage, but some holes for anchors or brackets are necessary for secure attachment. These can be easily patched if the bed is removed in the future, leaving your walls looking like new. Hiring a professional Murphy bed installer helps ensure minimal and repairable impact.

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. 

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
