Customers say: True professional

"Simply stated, the best possible carpentry service you can hire. In building a large deck off of the back of my house (project with a countless variables), Pat at Steadfast Carpentry worked to complete a design to my exact wants that will continue to impress everyone who sees it for decades. Pat demonstrated a deep knowledge and care for well-built and beautiful woodworking, and was able to exceed any expectations of build quality, cost, and aesthetics, whilst working safely and within the constraints of our town codes. I cannot overstate how friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and diligent he has been throughout the entire process. I am overjoyed with the final product, and can personally assure anyone looking for a carpenter that you have found the gold standard with Steadfast Carpentry. It is a true rarity to find the affordability, knowledge, and quality at this level."

"Dear Eric, I am writing to express my utmost appreciation for the exceptional work you and your team have done in transforming our outdoor space. Your expertise and dedication to the project have truly made a significant impact, and I want to commend you for your outstanding services. First and foremost, I was impressed by the professionalism and punctuality of your team. They consistently arrived on time and were always ready to tackle the tasks at hand. This level of reliability is truly commendable, and it gave me peace of mind throughout the project. The work that your team accomplished was nothing short of remarkable. Installing the railroad ties around our driveway not only added a touch of elegance but also improved the overall curb appeal of our property. The precision and attention to detail in this task were evident, and it exceeded my expectations. Furthermore, the tree removal was a challenging endeavor, but your team handled it with expertise and care. Safety was a top priority, and the efficient removal of the old tree was executed flawlessly. Lastly, the refinishing of our old wooden deck was the highlight of the project. The transformation was incredible, and the deck now looks brand new. The quality of craftsmanship and the choice of materials showcased your team's dedication to delivering exceptional results. Eric, I want to express my gratitude for your hard work, professionalism, and the outstanding results you have achieved. It's rare to find a contractor who consistently exceeds expectations, and I can confidently say that I will be proud to hire your services for any future projects. You and your team have not only met but surpassed our expectations, and I wholeheartedly recommend your services to anyone seeking top-notch craftsmanship and reliability. Thank you once again for your excellent work. It has been a pleasure working with you, and I look forward to future collaborations. Best Regards, Sandeep Ingale"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

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.

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

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.
