"We just completed a deck replacement with Andy at our home. It looks fantastic! But even better than that, Andy has been the easiest contractor to work with! He comes when he says! His price is so fair, and there’s no hidden costs that pop up. He is completely transparent regarding everything and his work is impeccable. I truly can’t say enough nice things about him- if you hire him ask for references because every customer has the same experience!"

"I had my concrete exterior stairs removed and replaced with wooden stairs. Everything Bob said he would do and when he would do it, was done. You could set your watch by him. He didn't just replace stairs, he customized them for my situation and created a true work of art. They are gorgeous. I cannot praise him and his work enough."

"I needed the steps to my front porch replaced. Sam quoted the job on a Saturday and assured me it would be done by the end of the following week. It was late November and the weather didn't cooperate but by Friday, the job was completed as promised. They did a great job and I am very satisfied with the new front steps."

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.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

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.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.
