"We high recommend Matt English for your projects. He gave us an excellent price to repair an old farmhouse porch, not even knowing what was underneath as it was hidden by siding. His estimate was right on. He not only repaired the porch stability and leveled it, he also was very careful of our (new) roof overhang and our desire to retain the "old farmhouse" look. He then power washed the porch and steps, and added a handrail. Much to our surprise, the old grey boards were paint covered which he got off. The porch wood now looks like fresh aged wood, the cement steps are actually white with lovely colored pebbles in them. The entire project was a huge success. The porch is safe and beautiful. Matt was right on schedule, careful of safety and clean-up, and moved so fast. Do not hesitate to contact him to discuss your projects. He's a fun fellow and amazing in his skills and abilities. He listens carefully to what you need and want."

"The project was to restore a large portion of wooden chimney exterior destroyed by squirrels gnawing and inhabiting the interior over winter. We were extremely pleased with the timelness, quality and professionalism of Castle's custom carpenter, Rich, who attended to the restoration and subsequent caulking and painting of the work area. His knowledge, skill and proficiency will benefit any potential customer. We were pleased with the final cost of the repair, as being fair and reasonable."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

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.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
