"McGrath Carpentry was recommended to me by a friend. Once I called Kieran to come view my project, he was prompt and on-time. Kieran surveyed the property and knew exactly what he needed to get for the job. Once all the windows had arrived to the manufacturer, Kieran collected and delivered them. Being an apartment building, scheduling needed to be worked out with tenants. Once arranged with all tenants, Kieran and his crew were on-time, courteous and diligent in their work. They cleaned up after every window and rehung all the blinds. Only for the new windows a person would not know McGrath Carpentry were even in the building. Prices are very fair. I would not hesitate recommending Kieran and McGrath Carpentry for any job. Very happy with my new windows."

"Hired Vin to jack up and level our deck frame. He was very responsive, friendly and was able to get the job done ahead of time. He recommended additional supports and installed them and came in right on budget. Would definitely hire him again for future work."

"My pro was skilled and had great attention to detail. Roger always let me know when he was on the way. He did extra work and was courteous. It could have been completed more timely, but honestly, the plaster took time to dry between coats. He painted our whole ceiling after repairing it. He also repaired cat scratches and chipped plaster. by our backdoor & repainted that whole wall. We have an old house and it needs work. He was very good."

"This contractor did a very good job for us. He was professional and very detail oriented and his work is awesome. We are very happy with the work that Sabino did at our house. We replaced every window in our house and it was completed in a timely fashion. We have work in the future that he will receive because we know his price will be fair and the work will be great again for us! Thanks Sabino, you are a hard worker."

"I hired American Exteriors to side my garage and update the flashing and trim on the front of my house to freshen it up. Steve and his crew were very professional, thurough and fast. I have had some very bad experiences with some contractors and was very impressed with the quality of work. I had some unique issues with the update to my house and Steve and his crew always had a solution. I would definitely hire them again and recommend them to anyone I know who needs exterior work done on their homes."

"Tom is more than a carpenter, more than just a handy man, a plumber, an electrician. He is a skilled craftsman, talented, reliable and generous with good advice. Over the past two years Tom has demonstrated his talents by helping improve my beautiful but somewhat outdated home. He has done everything from designing and building a new dressing room closet, to repairing and replacing light fixtures, and he is currently laying a new bathroom floor. He has even put my gas grill together! Lucky I was the day he responded to my Home Advisor call."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

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.

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.
