Looking for an affordable way to fence your dog? Outdoor Pet Solutions is Nashville's #1 choice in pet containment. Our electronic hidden dog fences are 100% Made in the USA and our exclusive Gentle Approach training program insures your dog experiences a fun stress free training process.

"Adam installed a pet door for us. Doesn't sound like a big deal, right? Actually, it is a pretty big deal to do. First of all, the door where the doggy door needed to go was double-glazed glass with metal grids between the glass panes, and the door is steel-clad. Second, our dog is a Great Pyrenees and 30 inches tall at the shoulder - she's a giant dog and needs literally a giant-sized doggy door. Adam was an excellent communicator during the entire process of ordering the right parts and coming to the house to perform the installation. He was on time and did a professional job. I have installed doggy doors myself for this beast of a dog, and I have paid other professional doggy door installers at other homes to provide that service. Adam's finished product is head and shoulders above what either I or other professionals that I've hired in the past have delivered. First rate experience, first rate workmanship. I would definitely recommend Adam for any similar kind of work. Attention to detail is exceptional."

For four generations our family has been building custom pool tables, restoring antique billiard tables and everything in between. If you need your pool table moved, recovered or restored....or are looking for that one-of-a-kind, unique table to be designed just for you, let us put our experience and dedication to work for you. We also design and build reasonably priced custom bars, entertainment centers and furniture. Call or email us today for a no-cost, no-obligation estimate on a piece that fits your personal space and style.

"We recently moved and my movers had set up the billard table frame and slate. They were not experienced with doing a billards table install so I had Bluegrass Billards and Woodwork finish the job by leveling the table and getting the felt back on. I was glad to have professionals finish the install. They knew what needed to be done and did a fantastic job. During the install they corrected some things the movers had done when doing the initial setup. I would definitely call them again if I need to move the table or replace the felt."

We are a small business with quality oriented craftsman, 1st class service with customer satisfaction as our main objective. I am personally involved with every project.

"Perfect. We had previously used another vendor who did truly terrible work and then refused to come make it right. Corey was there for a few hours and the repair work he did was perfect. Corey cleaned up the very minimal dust created and the work is how it should have been completed the first time. Corey was professional in every way. We are hiring him to do some other work needed in our home and HIGHLY recommend him with confidence."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.
