"We were introduced to Nick by another trusted friend and contractor. Nick was one of 3 carpenters/contractors that we had bid the job, and from the start, he built trust and credibility. After seeing pictures of his work, reading others reviews, and going on "gut," we hired Nick for a rather challenging and unique project (large built in book shelf that we wanted to appear as part of the original 30 year old log home), along with a list of other jobs that are probably more typical (new solid wood interior doors, plant flooring in a basement, tongue and grove ceilings with sound proofing and can lighting, and misc. trim work). Nick and his team were timely, responsible, clean, truthful, and their finished work is outstanding, and this is coming from someone who is a VERY picky person when it comes to carpentry and my expectations from a finished product. I am thankful to have been introduced to Nick, and we plan to use his team again!"

"Troy and Matt did a fantastic job framing and installing custom surround for a new fireplace and prepping for the install of a barn door on the guest bathroom. TJ did a good job gutting an office and prepping and painting. I would without a drought hire them again and actually have some projects for next spring"

"Excellent! Edgar & his crew were always on time, professional & pleasant. They came in exactly at the amount they quoted. The craftmanship on the wooden steps was excellent, notching in the wood & bolting for extra stability. Edgar also asked for much feedback during the process of building to make sure he was building what I wanted. Very impressed with these folks!"

"Excellent. I will definitely hire them again. They were punctual and found two more holes that needed to be replaced. They moved furniture out of the room, did the repair and cleaned up when they were done."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

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.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.
