"Golden Rule Carpentry did an excellent job at handmaking the shelving that I received for my newly built laundry room and was very punctual, gave a written estimate when he came to my house to view what work I needed done and scheduled when the installation of the shelving would take place. I would definitely recommend this contractor for carpentry work. ."

"Gary was exceptional! I really appreciate that he did all he said he would do and more! Inevitably there are unexpected things that come to light during renovation of an older home! Gary communicated his thoughts and made sure he had our permission before moving forward with changes. I am very glad we found this company!"

"Allen made my house look amazing. We had some rotting wood posts on the porch, and as he got into the work, it was worse than we thought. Since some of the damage was on the porch roof, he took photos of the damage and of the repairs step by step so we knew exactly what he was doing. He did some exterior painting and pressure washing as well. We have a LOT of concrete and it was a BIG undertaking! Since it had not been washed in over a decade, I wondered if it could even look any better. Allen got our driveway cleaner than I imagined, my porch and exterior painting look AMAZING , and he did everything in a timely manner. He was punctual and professional, and he worked long hours in the scorching heat to get the job done. I highly recommend him!"

"Derek has been the utmost pleasure to work with! He was professional, timely, committed, and always kept his word. He was reliable, honest, trustworthy, and did great work! I definitely want to hire him again for multiple projects! Derek installed outside patio doors, a storm door, a garage screen, and screened in the entire patio. He was a perfectionist in maintaining quality work and was very reasonable. Super pleased!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

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

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces.
