"Michele, the owner of Turner Crown Molding Home Improvement was a pleasure to work with! When we first met Michele to go over our desired project, which was crown molding, chair rail and wainscoting for our dining room, she took her time with us, we didn?t feel rushed. She went over all of the material including options and came in with a very fair estimate. Her work is detailed and of excellent quality. We enjoyed having her in our home, not only as a carpenter but as a new friend we had just made. We will definitely be calling on Michele for future jobs!"

"I contacted EMA regarding the building of a one car garage with loft storage. Keith was my main contact, listened to what I wanted, answered all my questions and provide the lowest estimate for this project. He scheduled me in, sent out a work crew who were all very very nice people. The garage got built exactly to my liking, and within the time frame and estimate promised."

"Allen (and Jeff) were fantastic! The work was done with excellence and care and in a timely fashion! Multiple projects were required. Our dishwasher leaked and ruined the floors in our kitchen and dining room. With needing this work done we decided we might as well have all the little DIY projects my husband completed over the years corrected as well. Cabinet repair, electrical, HVAC, drywall repair, wallpaper removal, new flooring - LVP - on entire main floor of house (and entrance to family room), new trim and paint in kitchen, DR, LR and family room, repair ceiling of garage and paint and I'm sure I missed some. This was an extensive project for us and Allen was forthcoming and honest with all of our decisions helping to guide us to the best outcome. We have lived in our home for 29 years and all the work Allen completed has truly made us fall in love with our house again. Major beautiful improvements - well done! Give him a call, ask to see his portfolio of past projects - we have lots of photos of before, during and after. Nice guy, hard-working and very clean! Give him a call - you will not be disappointed."

"James possesses a knack for design as well as keen attention to detail. His pricing is competitive and often below what comparable services offer. I was well-pleased with his work. It turned out beautiful! In addition, he did a backsplash with arabesque style tile, put up a stove hood, installed a shiplap wall and redid framing around windows and doors, plus additional framing."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
