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."

"Mike pays special attention to details. Cleaned up everything at the end of each day. Did a great job not only on painting a bedroom and two hallways but did an excellent job in patching a couple of dents in the sheet rock and replacing a bedroom door frame."

"Vetrans Tile is all you need! They are professional, punctual and very respectable. They take extreme care for your home while working and after completing the job they clean up and take away all debris. Their craftsmanship is an A ! They tiled my bathroom floor and I love it so much, I hired them to do a ceramic tile backsplash in my kitchen. No worries here!"

"My front door was hung in a crooked door frame and would not close or lock all the way. I also needed to install 2 new storm doors, one in that crooked door frame. I’m on a limited budget, and Nixon was able to correct the door lock situation, compensate for the frame, and install the storm doors beautifully. Everything now works perfectly and looks amazing. He recommended the perfect storm doors and hardware and even picked everything up for me. It was all finished in 2 hours! Highly recommend!"

"I used Hire Her Home Improvement to build a Timber Tech deck and to reroute and upgrade the wiring to my garage. Every worker was professional, extremely competent and great to work with. We couldn't have been more pleased. We'll be hiring them again next year when we do the interior of our garage."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects.
