"I contacted C&M and received a timely response from Corey. I had a wood privacy fence in need of repair. He came out within days to give me a quote Due to the condition of the fence he was very accommodating in getting the job done within a matter of 2 weeks! Corey and Missy did a meticulous job, working in less than desirable weather too. It’s hard to find trustworthy and quality craftsmanship these days, fortunate I found them and will continue to call them for future work. Highly recommend!!!!"

"Had a rotting 20 foot support beam under our deck. Jeremiah came up with a plan to replace the beam and improve the structural integrity of the deck. Complex operation since there is a heavy pergola on top of the deck but he was able to complete it in one day. Super happy with the results."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

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.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

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.
