"We couldn't be happier. Thomas help with a huge list of things that needed to get done for selling a house. His expertise, attention to detail, and knowledge were extremely helpful, when dealing with all the work that was required. He was on time, had great communication, great prices and worked hard while he was here and got the job done. He finished when he said he would. We wish we would have found him sooner. We are already discussing when we will be using him again for future projects. We highly recommend him for any project you have planned. You will not be disappointed."

"Tim was fantastic to work with. He was very professional and his finished product/repair met all my expectations. Tim answered all my questions and his suggestions not only fixed my problem but the cost was far less than expected. Tim took the time to make sure his work was of craftsmanship quality and he left my home spotless. I would highly recommend Tim and am planning on using his service for several other projects."

"I needed stucco repair work on an old chimney (and other spots). Grady was meticulous and thoughtful on what approaches and materials would work. Throughout the project they allocated sufficient time for each treatment to cure and inspected the work before proceeding to the next step. Grady started the project with no money down and only required ongoing payments for materials until the project was well underway. The final payment was due only after they did a final inspection. Total project cost was also below other bids."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

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.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.
