I am an experienced licensed, bonded & insured general contractor, specializing in high-end custom wood cabinetry. My reputation is excellent. I love helping people bring their vision to life with challenging projects. I design, build and install each project myself. Past projects range from cabinetry for full kitchen and bath remodels to walk-in closets, built-ins, fireplace surrounds, pantries, wine cellars, custom furniture, wood paneling, crown molding and wainscoting. I am extremely dependable and passionate about what I do. I pour my heart and soul into my work because I love it!

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes wall damage, but some holes for anchors or brackets are necessary for secure attachment. These can be easily patched if the bed is removed in the future, leaving your walls looking like new. Hiring a professional Murphy bed installer helps ensure minimal and repairable impact.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off.
