"Had HD carpentry repair my deck steps, and add a new handrail. Excellent work, decent prices, very polite. Cleanup was immaculate. I would give them 10 stars if I could. I would definitely recommend them and I look forward to calling them again."

"I had an excellent experience working with ZVL on my basement remodel. Ivan and his team were outstanding from start to finish. Communication was always clear and timely, and the entire project stayed within the budget outlined in the original proposal, which is rare and greatly appreciated. Ivan did a great job walking me through each phase of the project, offering thoughtful options and practical suggestions along the way. He truly listened to what I wanted and helped refine the ideas into something even better than I originally envisioned. In the end, he and his team brought the concept to life exactly as promised. I would absolutely recommend ZVL to anyone looking for a reliable, professional contractor who takes pride in their work and delivers on what they say they will do."

"Very professional job stairs were done to code I was also impressed with their solution for a post coming down in a parking lot. They put it at an angle into the building with a go plate at the bottom, anchoring it in my hand fence came out gorgeous. They were timely and very clean about the job I appreciate their work. The job was well done."

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.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

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.
