"Outstanding work. I canâ t recommend Derek enough for any kitchen needs. We had him do the trim work on our kitchen and it turned out fantastic. He did crown moulding, toe kicks, end panels, door trim, and other things. I have absolutely zero complaints and couldnâ t be happier with his work. Weâ re having him come back for other work in the future. You will not be disappointed, HIGHLY recommend."

"I need a support column replaced on my front porch. John reviewed the project, provided an estimate and set a start date. He and his crew came and completed the project in one day. They cleaned up the area afterwards. Phenomenal work ethics and pride in their craftsmanship. I would highly recommend them and will use them again"

"My husband and I were very pleased with the entire 5 week experience when working with Bob and would recommend him very highly. His work was excellent and completed in a timely manner. He was lovely to work with and provided us great insight with our projects. He had a number projects he was working on in our home and many that had rather intricate wood working which he completed with perfection. He was able to reuse our existing doors for our pocket doors and was very clear about pricing throughout the project. Bob also was so clean which I very much appreciated! The subcontractors he connected us with did a great job and were priced fairly. We consider ourselves lucky to have worked with Bob and look forward to working with him in the future!"

"(This was to replace my attic stairs - no selection for this in the application) Corey and Missy did an excellent job replacing my attic stairs. The old ones were a non-standard size, which required some craftmanship. The whole effort took about 2.5 hours, and every step of the way, Corey was taking his time to do a perfect job. He truly cares and takes pride in his work. I was very pleased with the end product. Corey and Missy were punctual and very friendly and professional. I truly felt at ease with them in my home and am thinking of asking them to quote other projects for me. In this day and age, this courteous, professional attitude, and attention to detail are rare. If you are looking for to-notch construction services, I strongly suggest contacting C&M Construction and Remodeling."

"We had a large amount of damage from a fallen tree on our detached garage related to a storm - clearly an emergent situation, where time was of the essence. I contacted Doug's company, and not only did he return my call promptly (a rarity in and of itself), he was at my house assessing the job the following morning. He is knowledgeable, professional, polite and extremely thorough. He got me a bid within 48 hours, which was remarkable compared to the turnaround from other firms, and which was also very helpful when dealing with the insurance company, as this was an unforeseen insurance claim related to a weather event - the price of the bid was very competitive and fair. Ultimately, we had to go with the firm that the insurance company was recommending, so our hands were tied - but I would certainly have felt more than comfortable having Doug's company complete this job. He is now at the top of my list for any future general construction work that I may need done at my property. You won't regret contacting Furko Construction for your job."

"I am so happy that we found Krain Construction. Brian and his crew really brought our vision to life. We wanted to build 2 stories on top of an already existing foundation that only had a roof on it. We had a hard time finding someone to do it but Brian had no hesitation. He drew up a floor plan and we loved it. His crew built the new frame for our house, did the siding, doors, windows, decks, gutters, hvac. My husband and I are going to do the interior part of the house. If we had any issues we could easily text Brian and he would resolve them quickly. If we had any last minute changes, he would work with us. Very personable and professional. If we ever needed anything else done I would use them again and I would recommend to anyone needing a remodel. I will post some pictures of how our house started and how it is now that they’re done."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

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. 

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.
