"Need a deck? Covered porch? Whatever you do, DO NOT hire Lonely Mountain Craftsmen, LLC.
They did not pull permits with the county, as required. The excuse was ?we didn?t realize we had to have a permit?.
Didn?t pull / request electrical permit/inspection until I requested it from them. Still in process.
Didn?t follow code, had to look up TN code myself and ask to redo porch railings.
Did not want to fix anything that was done incorrectly. Would make excuses and point blame.
What they did do?
Showed up late, left early
Made excuses for delays- so many excuses were used- we joke about which one it will be each time.
Ruined our gutters, pieces of brand new siding.
Asked for money before the job was completed"

"Randy Carroll and his great team remodeled two bathrooms, installed a new laundry room floor, tore down my existing screened-in porch, rebuilt an enlarged screened-in porch and added a deck. The jobs were completed in early May and I still walk into my bathrooms and onto my porch and smile!! They did an amazing job, listened to my many "wants", provided me with options to save money and always consulted/advised us on what was being done. Randy took the time on several occasions during the renovations to make sure we were happy with the progression and the work. I could not have been happier with Randy and his entire team. I felt like I was losing family members when the projects were done!! Would not hesitate to hire them for additional work. Already have some projects in mind."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts
A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.
Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.
Building a new home can be more expensive than buying an existing one, depending on the housing market in your area. Many homeowners still find that building a new house is worth the investment as they can choose the exact layout they want, as well as to choose their own floors, wall coverings, appliances, and finishes. If you live close enough to the build site, you can also stop by to check on the builder’s progress, which can provide some peace of mind that the project is worth it.
Hickory, red oak, white oak, and Brazilian walnut are among the most durable wood flooring options. Teakwood is extremely durable and known as one of the hardest woods. It holds up against weather and sunlight, but it’s costly and can be difficult to source. Keep durability in mind when installing floors for high-traffic areas in your home.
The minimum recommended height for a carport is 7 feet tall, but you might need a significantly taller carport to provide clearance for RVs, commercial trucks, or other tall vehicles. You can choose your carport height based on the clearance you need and how the carport looks in comparison to the height of your home. Just keep in mind that building regulations usually dictate a maximum carport height.
