"Fantastically well. The quality of the work performed was top notch and the individuals on the team were highly professional and very personable. The lead, Samuel Nelson, listened carefully to everything that I said and then provided valuable feedback that resulted in a better outcome and lower overall cost. I am more than pleased to be able to recommend Nelson General Contractor."

"I hired Mitchell and Bob and they were very professional. They gave us a written estimate, and stayed within the estimate. If we asked them to do something extra they would do it a d let us know how much it would cost before doing it."

Customers say: True professional

"Five Star Plus! I was a Realtor for over 30 years and rarely hugged a contractor but Steve Santosusso and his crew were contractors extraordinaire. Not only did they do great work but they were compassionate to our needs and respectful of our property always cleaning any dust or debris at the end of each day. Highly recommended! A definite Must Call!"

"First Class Home Renovations(Frank) came to our rescue when our initial contractor bailed on us. We could not be more grateful. The professionalism, kindness and, of course, skill exemplified by Frank and his workers made a very stressful situation much easier to bear. The carpenter, Craig, is a master at his craft! We are very pleased with our kitchen remodel and wouldn't hesitate to hire them, again, in the future. Thank you, again, Frank! Best Wishes."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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.

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.
