"Touched by God is a very professional business with highly skilled carpenters. The work they did to install custom molding, trim, door casings, and picture frames really transformed our home. What was a 20 year old home is now a beautifully updated home. Diego and his team really worked with us to achieve everything we wanted and then some â - all within committed timeframes."

"I cannot sing the praises of Jose and his team enough. I purchased a new home that had carpeting everywhere and hired J & J Elite Carpentry Inc to replace with wood floors. They did an AMAZING job as you can see from the pictures. J&J even took care of replacing a few closet doors. Jose and his team are very friendly, knowledgable, patient, responsive, on time and professional. They communicate and are transparent with you every step of the way and get the job done with such great detail and care. They also specialize in other areas so I plan to hire them for other home repair needs."

"D’s Fencing, LLC was professional. He replaced a wood stockade fence with vinyl privacy fence to be meet an existing vinyl fence. The labor went smoothly despite some pandemic shutdown delays. Mr Williams attention to detail is impeccable. He adjoined the new vinyl to the old vinyl and it looks amazing. I am highly satisfied. I would recommend highly."

"Tim was prompt, professional & listened to my questions and answered my questions patiently. His knowledge of materials and costs helped me get this project done well & in my spending plan too. My decks are now in great shape, look better than they have for some time, since Dominion’s very skilled crew replaced worn decking and stained the deck and railings. Our family can really enjoy this special part of our home for years to come now!"

Carpentry FAQs, 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.

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

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.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.
