"What an incredible experience. Contacted them for siding consult, Chris from sales was very knowledgeable and easy to talk with. Gave us great recommendations for the design. We signed up and wow the siding was here in less than 10 days. The installers, Led by Daniel were incredible. They were courteous, friendly, neat and they were fast! You could see pride of work as they were doing the project. They were also on time each day, were there when they said they would be. AJ our project manager was awesome as well..Communicated frequently so we always knew what to expect. We are thrilled with our new home, siding is beautiful, this team is stellar! If we could give a 100 rating we would!"

"I hired Knight?s Remodeling. The job was a rebuild of the bird boxing w/cosmetic upgrade to my wood workshop/carport-recreational building. Darryl came prior to doing the work to get measurements and assessment for materials needed to do the job. Darry & his son Matt came back a weeks later to start. Not only were they both very efficient, in working together, the job was completed in one day! Not only were very organized in they were doing, but very timely. My building looks wonderful & very much appreciated. Darryl showed his expertise, in well looking cosmetic finish! They cleaned everything up! Best of all & moreover, the price for the labor & materials was extremely reasonable! This is the reason I gave Knight?s Remodeling a 5-star rating!!! ?????????????"

"Tyler did a great job with some custom carpentry work for us, installing windows, hanging a door, tiling and painting a bonus room. He also built a special table for our daughter use while she is recovering from major hip surgery. The craftsmanship is outstanding and it has been a lifesaver in her recovery process. Tyler is as skilled as he is compassionate and we can’t say enough about the work he has done for us."

"I needed my front door replaced. I ordered the door myself from Lowe's that was on sale. Set an appointment on a Thursday and they came on Saturday. Josh was very kind, friendly and professional. He wore a mask due to covid which was very conciderate. The door didn't take long and looks great. He also replaced the outside and inside framing. After installation he cleaned the area inside and out. Great service and great company. I recommend them to any and everyone and will definitely use their services in the future. Ten stars!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.
