"I hired Mitch Mckague /Bend Labor Trade,to replace an old deck. He did such a fantastic job I asked him to do the other deck,next summer. I then asked him to replace a broken door on my garage, install a pre-made counter top in the bathroom, window and door frames through out the house. Build a fence into my garden area, cut down limb up and chip some small juniper trees. He also helped me stack 4 cords of wood and split some of the larger pieces. The latest project involved removing a old chicken shed, and cleaning out the lean to attached to the garage then putting clear corrugated around the sides. He is a very personable gentleman, keeps me informed on when he is arriving and the progress of the project. He is also willing to let me know if he cannot do one of my projects, and may know someone else who can. I will continue to hire him as long as I keep coming up with more projects."

"I had a client who wanted their window replaced with glass block. It is not a common installation these days but Demren was confident he was able to it and did it with a smile on his face. He was even graceful when there was a mishap with materials being delayed and came back to complete the work without a problem. The window looks great and both the client and I are very happy with the results. In most cases carpentry is one part skill and the other is being creative and intuitive in problem solving. Demren has no doubt an eye for detail and a very diverse set of skills. Highly recommended."

"Joe, owner of Deschutes Deck Care and his assistant, Bryan did a fantastic job cleaning and staining our decks. They arrived on time, were courteous, prompt, and did a splendid job with no problems at all. My wife and I are very impressed with Deschutes Deck Care and would recommend them highly. There were a few items on the deck that my wife and I couldn’t move and when asked if they would help us out, they did. They moved the heavy items and then returned after the deck had dried and replaced them, all the time with courtesy and efficiency. We would recommend them with no reservations. Outstanding!"

He showed up right on time and completed the job within the time frame provided. He has good knowledge and also provided some items that might need to be addressed in the future. Would definitely hire him again if a need arises."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

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.

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.
