"Exemplary! Jason delivered based on his recommendations and suggestions for our damaged fence and deck. During a bad storm, a large tree fell on our wooden fence and deck. I found good reviews online about Jason Mechler of Golden Rule and hired him. He explained the scope of work for rebuilding and repairing our damaged property. He and his crew worked hard and we are pleased with the result. I am convinced Golden Rule contractors are the best in Nashville because of Jason's attitude, character and work ethic. His knowledge, professionalism and respectfulness set him apart from several other contractors that bid on this job. His price was competitive for the work that had to be done. If you want the job done right, hire Jason Mechler of Golden Rule. His expertise on fence and deck building and repair is valuable to homeowners who are met with the hard work and challenges of home maintenance and repair. He is undoubtedly one of the best in the Nashville area and in demand."

"Moses was great! He exceeded my expectations in staining and sealing my deck. Shows up when he says he will. He offered to do additional touch ups at not additional charge. It's great to have someone with that kind of work ethic. I highly recommend MJ Remodeling and Carpentry. He also knows a lot of other highly qualified handyman if you have something around the house that needs a qualified handyman. His prices are very reasonable."

"Gary did exceptional work. I had wanted to have shiplap put up on my wall in the living room and bonus room, Gary listen to my idea and made it happen. He was very friendly and courteous, he had great ideas and help me place an order for a Chucky Mantel. I appreciate all his help and the quality of work he did. I would definitely have him to do more renovations. Wanted to say "Thank you" for a great job!"

"I cannot say enough about Fred and the work he does. He completed a whole kitchen and bathroom remodel for me. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. We all know having your house in disarray is stressful. Throughout the project, his punctuality and progress was amazing. He arrived everyday ready to work and kept me constantly informed of the progress. The worksite was always well maintained and organized which cannot be overlooked. What truly sets him apart is his attention to detail and commitment to quality. He is honest and reliable which I think is very hard to find these days and reasonably priced! Also available to answer all my questions concerns. You will not find a better contractor. I know as I have been working in the new construction industry for over 10 years now. Give Fred a call, you will not be disappointed."

Customers say: Quick response

"Angel Alvarado was punctual and did a great job installing crown molding over our 50+ years old kitchen cabinets. He had to remove the old molding, to install the new. He was very patient and careful doing this and the new molding looks great. He was also very polite and friendly while doing the work and we are hiring him to do more."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.
