"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"

Since our owner, Randy Carroll, started Carroll Development, LLC, in 2006 we have been focused on taking care of our customers with whatever they need. We approach every project as if we were working on our own home, office, or facility. Call us today to see how we can help your house become your home.

"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."

"We started off good and they initially did good work. I delt with the owner Brandon Lockler. After a couple of months of work I trusted them enough to pay for work up front because he said he need the money to get materials as he could not afford it. I wired him $7000. As soon as he received it they disappeared and stopped answering the phone. Very disappointed as he sold himself as a hardworking family man of faith."

Carpentry 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.

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.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.
