"The work was done very professionally and they discussed different options. The half-deck and wide staircase with 45-degree angled corners made the look and flow artistic and pleasing to the eye. The posts and stair base were set in concrete and the whole job was completed in 1.5 days. I akready recommended Aleni Construction to my next foor neighbor who is considering a project. Overall I am pleased with the work, the carpentry and the group."

"Marvin, Noel, and the entire Jeffries team raise the bar on several levels. They not only provide great work but significantly excel at working with you as a fiduciary and trusted partner throughout the overall process. They will not break your trust. Our home is a hundred year old colonial home. The team upgraded our electric, restored century old plaster walls, insulated and restored our basement. They exercised extreme care to keep dust and debris confined and always cleaned up everyday. They don't cut corners and handled town inspectors openly and successfully with ease. They work with your schedule of availability and, on several occasions, we trusted their team to perform work on our home when we weren't there. They treated our home like it was their own. We cannot wait to work with them on our next project and recommend them without any reservations."

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."

They showed up on time and completing the work in a reasonable amount of time for the project. Even when there were hiccups they helped rectify the issues and talked us through them. We definitely hire them in the future for another project."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

Balusters provide vertical support to make sure your stair railing and/or deck is as sturdy and safe as possible. These spindles help hold up the railing so people walking up or down stairs have something strong to hold onto. They can also act as a unique design element if they’re custom-made to suit a specific style or size requirement.

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.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

Board and batten is a type of wainscotting that uses wider boards that are placed vertically, and it has a much more rustic aesthetic than wainscotting. Common wainscotting styles are raised-panel, flat-panel, and beadboard. Wainscotting is more intricate and will typically use more elegant, subtle trims compared to the more farmhouse-inspired boards of board and batten styles.
