"Mike is great! He came out quickly to take a look at our ceiling repair job. Very impressed with his professionalism and quick response to our request. While we didn’t hire for this project I am keeping his information for future reference as we will likely need remodeling work on a larger scale down the road. His reviews speak for themselves and after meeting him in person I have no hesitation about working with him in the future."

"We have used a good amount of companies before, and continued to get the same result; no communication, always above budget, and never within the time frame discussed. Trevor and his team were the exact opposite of this. We never had any issues with communication, price, or time. We also have three small children and our project was fairly large. Trevor and his team took great care to make sure our children were comfortable, and most importantly, safe. 10 out of 10 will absolutely hire again."

"Tyler did amazing work completely redoing the top level of my porch and even adding a water-proofing system for the downstairs area! The new stairs look amazing as well! I couldn’t be happier with the quality and professionalism he provided! I will be sure to recommend his company to others as well!!"

"I couldn't be happier with the work he did on my deck! He did an absolutely amazing job and went above and beyond to make sure everything was done right. He was professional, dependable, hardworking, and paid attention to every detail. You can tell he truly takes pride in his work, and the finished deck turned out even better than I expected. It looks beautiful, sturdy, and completely refreshed. It's hard to find someone you can trust to do quality work, but I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing deck or porch repairs. I am extremely happy with the results and would absolutely hire him again!"

"We recently had new gutters, a storm door installed on our back porch, and underground drainage added to help with storm runoff, and we couldn?t be happier with the results. The entire project was completed professionally and with great attention to detail. The new gutters look fantastic and function exactly as they should, directing water away from the house efficiently. The storm door installation was done perfectly, adding both functionality and curb appeal to our back porch. The underground drainage system has made a noticeable difference during heavy rains by effectively managing runoff and preventing water from pooling around our property. The crew was punctual, courteous, and kept the work area clean throughout the project. Their craftsmanship and commitment to quality were evident from start to finish. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for gutter installation, drainage solutions, or door installation services. Excellent work and outstanding customer service!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

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

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.

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.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.
