Customers say: True professional

"Skyler from Merrill Home Renovation recently transformed my back porch into a beautiful and functional four-season multipurpose room, and the entire experience exceeded every expectation I had. His craftsmanship is exceptional — every detail is precise, beautifully finished, and clearly done with pride and skill. The room feels warm, inviting, and seamlessly integrated with the rest of my home, and I find myself smiling every time I walk into it. What truly set this project apart was Skyler’s professionalism. His communication was clear and consistent, he showed up when he said he would, and he kept the workspace clean and organized throughout the renovation. He stayed on schedule, stayed on budget, and made the entire process easy and stress-free. I highly recommend Merrill Home Renovation. Skyler is talented, dependable, and committed to delivering top-quality results. I absolutely love my new room."

"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."

"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

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them.
