"Anton, the owner of European Craftsman and Remodeling, has done a lot of work for us over the past few years. He has painted and fixed the entire exterior of our home, repaired our roof, built a beautiful front patio with stonework, and also re-finished our cedar outdoor deck. This man is an absolute top-rate craftsman of the highest order. Every single job that he has done for us has been done with great care, detail, and amazing quality. All of this done with complete trust, no price increases unless there is an impending issue that comes up, and extreme reliability. We have other work that we need done, and there is absolutely nobody else that I will ever call in the Hudson Valley - Anton is our man! We have had nightmare issues in the past finding good carpenters and contractors - they are usually not reliable, do garbage or incorrect work, overcharge, etc so when we found Anton, we were amazed and are now thrilled. If you need something taken care of in your home or want to upgrade some appearance, painting, stonework, repair, decks, I give my highest recommendation to call Anton. I would rate his entire work for us at a 10/10 and A++ rating, no joke. I am simply a very happy customer. Frank"

"Mike and crew(Mike Jr lol, Anthony and Andrew). What can I say? Not enough. The moment these guys showed up they displayed a polished level of professionalism and work ethic. Not to mention that their just one **** of a bunch of great guys. Extraordinarly courteous and respectful. They didnt waste any time on day one tearing the old deck down. And, man, are these guys neat and organized. They got right into building our new deck, which took only a few days. These guys even worked through the rain. The finished deck was beyond my and my wife's expectations. Very impressive. Mike the boss led the charge. We knew from the moment we met him, that this man knows his craft, and knows it well. We had checked out two other companies prior, but there was something not quite right. Too expensive and too many loopholes. We were left more confused and disappointed than before we started. Mike, on the other hand, clarified everything. Everything was transparent. He laid out what we were going to get, and the price was absolutely fair. No strings attached, which was the impression we were getting from the other guys. And Mike seems to have all the bases covered when it comes to home improvement. He did some electrical work for us, even while the deck was being built. We are already discussing other projects around our home that need to be taken care of. At this point, there is no need to even look anywhere else. Mike does it all. We already recommended him out to friends and family, and we highly recommend him to you. 10 stars!!"

"My wife and I are very particular and meticulous. Jose does absolute pristine work. We had him build and install custom shelving for our new house and the final product was better than we could ever have imagined. We would recommend him and we wonâ t use anyone else in future for carpentry needs."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

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.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

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.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.
