"Chris was extremely professional and very skilled at his trade. He completed the work within 2 days of our first contact and kept excellent communication about costs, time of arrival for first consultation and date of service. The projects were challenging and he did incredible carpentry. He was very good at keeping the area clean and respectful of my home. We have already discussed additional work that he will do on the house. I am excited to work with him again and recommend him without reservation. He is a breath of fresh air for someone to really work with a homeowner!"

"Excellent service! We have used Finish Line 3 different times now and we have always been highly satisfied with their work. They replaced our entire house roof and did an excellent job, they  installed a rubber roof over our deck, and they did the same at our son's house. We trust them and highly recommend them!"

"We recently hired Built Right Construction to build a 10' x 24' deck, and the results are absolutely gorgeous. From the start, Steve was fantastic to work with—he was always easy to reach and took the time to explain every step of the process. ​What also set them apart was their help with the 'behind-the-scenes' work; they drafted the drawings for our permit documentation and coordinated all the necessary inspections. The project was completed right on time and at a very reasonable price. We highly recommend Steve and his team for anyone looking for quality craftsmanship and a seamless experience."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

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. 

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.
