"Mr. Doyle is fantastic at what he did. I had multiple carpentry projects for him to complete and he did so in very professional manner. Some of this work in my old house was way out of level and Brian did the work in a timely manner and I am very satisfied with his service."

"I had a great experience with Hodgson Homes from start to finish. The installation was done cleanly and efficiently, and the crew was respectful of the space throughout the process. Scott was very professional and communicative. He kept me informed every step of the way and made sure everything was done to my expectations, including adding an additional gate on the side that was not in the original quote and changing hardware as needed. He also helped communicate with some neighbors questioning property lines in a way that helped rather than hindered the process. The final result looks fantastic, and I'm really happy with the quality of the work. My dog is also quite happy with his new play area 😋 Highly recommend!"

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"I needed stucco repair work on an old chimney (and other spots). Grady was meticulous and thoughtful on what approaches and materials would work. Throughout the project they allocated sufficient time for each treatment to cure and inspected the work before proceeding to the next step. Grady started the project with no money down and only required ongoing payments for materials until the project was well underway. The final payment was due only after they did a final inspection. Total project cost was also below other bids."

"Did our roof about 2 years ago and was super pleased with the professionalism of everyone from the office staff to the work crews and the efficiency and quality of work. Hired again to replace windows, and once again impressed with the work but also the people. If I need another job done that they specialize in, will hire again."

"BJ built a beautiful, durable deck. Him and his crew were very professional and the communication was top notch. This was definitely a tricky project as some of the other contractors that came to give quotes did not even know where to begin or just did not want to attempt the project all together. I made some changes to my end goal during construction and BJ was extremely accommodating and understanding. Will definitely be hiring him again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.
