"Kevin helped us turn a dream into reality: After hiring him to build a deck for us, we decided to hire him again to take on a large scale remodel/new build. We had an old 2 story barn attached to our house which was completely unfinished, and used as storage when we moved in. Kevin helped us to convert that space into a brand new 1300 square foot apartment with new HVAC (geothermal!), brand new kitchen w/ custom cabinets, 1 full and 1 half bath, laundry, vaulted ceilings, reclaimed lumber for all wood floors, brand new windows, doors, all of it. My in-laws are now happily retired and living with us, loving their brand new home. His crew was amazing. They worked hard on this project and came in very close to their original estimate, despite the fact that he quoted a price pre-Covid, and the cost of materials went through the roof during the project. He worked closely with his sub-contractors (plumber, electrician, HVAC) to ensure they were delivering a quality product that fit within our budget. He was in regular communication with our architect throughout the project as well. He even dealt with our annoying building inspector long after we got the C of O, because Kevin understands the value of customer service. Kevin is the best. Hire this man!"

"Great people and a great company. Explained step by step the process they were going to take to build a pool deck. Each step was inspected and passed on the first attempt. All the workers were professional and courteous. I always like to see the owner, Joe, out there working on the job and not handing off the work to someone else. They went above and beyond what they needed to do by helping me attach a pool ladder to my deck, after hours and on a hot day. Unfortunately, they told my wife that they also remodel kitchens. Now, that's all she talks about. I would absolutely use this company again."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

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.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry.
