"We had a total renovation of our kitchen and also a deck built by Custom Construction and both completed exactly how we planned them to be. They did excellent work. They came highly recommended from a previous customer and did not disappoint. Their pricing was very reasonable, communication was excellent and they were professional and easy to work with. Our projects were done in a timely manner, and they never left a mess. We would definitely recommend Custom Construction!"

"This project involved hanging four different heavy items on the wall. It went really well despite the fact that the TV mount didn't have the right hardware. We collaborated well and in a few hours my living room was furnished! He's a true pro and I'd definitely work with him again."

"Matt is exceptional when it comes to home renovations, whether it's electrical work, lighting, or interior and exterior repairs. He helped me with a range of condo renovations in preparation for my home sale, and his work significantly increased the property's value. Thanks to his expertise, the sale went smoothly and successfully. I would highly recommend Matt for any construction project, big or small."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

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.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

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.
