"My husband and I hired Darlcom, LLC Carpentry to remodeled our air BnB. Not only did they do a beautiful job, but I really appreciated the great communication we received as well. We had walls removed, new wood floors installed, and a farm sink with a butcher-block counter top put in. They even installed floating shelves. Keith and Steven Darling, and their workers did a truly amazing job, and I am thankful for all they did. These guys have my full recommendation to anyone who needs a well-rounded company!!"

"Artie was exceptionally professional and knowledgeable in a vast array of services. Artie worked for me for over 7 years preforming tasks that varied from converting a small shed to a luxury air bnb, remodeling apartment buildings, restructuring and replacing a large porch, installing washer and dryers as well as dishwashers, and various small home projects. Artie was always punctual and reliable. He completed all jobs in a timely and effective manner. He also fixed projects that were done improperly by other contractors. I also found him to be cost effective in every way. Saving myself time, money, and energy upon every job that I hired him for. Artie still works for me to this day. Heâ s my go to for just about anything and everything!"

Customers say: True professional

"I called Brian to get an estimate on my motherâ s deck railing repair and received a call back within minutes. Brian took the time to schedule an onsite meeting and provided her with a fair estimate and date to start the work. He began the work on time, as scheduled, and provided her with his expert finish carpenter named Josh. Josh completed the railings and replaced the deteriorated steps in a professional and expertise manner. We highly recommend Brian and his crews for any deck and railings repairs. They did such an excellent job that my mother also had him do a total remodel of her bathroom, which has just been completed. Brian offered suggestions for the remodel, which she went with and is extremely satisfied with the finished product. We highly recommend Brian Morris for all your Deck, Bathroom, and ANY remodeling needs. He is an honest and trustworthy Craftsman, which is hard to find these days. We look forward to having Brian work on our next project very soon."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
