"They did a great job. I hired them to tape bed and texture and paint. They patched and painted a sheetrock ceiling. You can’t see the patch. They painted the garage. They came to look at the area’s prior to starting the work. That told me that they are a professional and dependable company. They came early the day they started. We had an issue with paint colors. Their scope of work was to paint the doors trim a different color than the walls. That was included in our agreement. He painted all of the doors and trim the same color as the walls. When I told the field crew about it they called the office team to check that out. I was right so they got to work on it. There wasn’t one complaint from them about the issue. They got to work on it with a smile. They are honest dependable and professional. Hire them you won’t regret it. I’m serious they are who you want to do your project"

"We hired Trinity Builders to do a massive remodel on one of our childcare centers in 2021. Tanner (Owner) and his crew did such an amazing job on the remodel that we then again hired him to remodel two more of our locations. I can’t say enough good things about the quality of his work, his communication, and his timeliness. He has completed every remodel on budget and within the scheduled time frame. I will continue to use Trinity Builders on all future remodels and add ons."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

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

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects.
