Customers say: Quality work

"Curtis Kuhn is a master craftsman. He converted my old family cedar chest into a beautiful heirloom piece for my family. The cedar chest was in really bad shape, and Curtis made it remarkably lovely and like new again. He takes great pride in his work, and his prices are reasonable. I recommend Kuhn Custom Woodworking to anyone who needs any kind of woodwork done."

"Hired Kings of Clean after having prior experience with their sister company, Cincinnati Gutter Boys. Like my experience with Cincinnati Gutter boys, the service, professionalism, and job quality was outstanding. It was a HUGE job (picture is for a portion of only the top deck), with a lot of need for coordination, but they took it on at a very fair price and did an amazing job. Even our general contractor's finish carpenter commented on what a great job they did and in my experience, contractors rarely praise someone else's work. Special recognition to Travis, who went the extra mile and went out of his way to communicate with us in a timely and proactive fashion. I would highly recommend them for any size job you have."

"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"

"I want to say that Mike did an incredible job putting together my furniture. I had a bed frame, gel mattress, dresser and futon. He made sure that all the parts fit. He made sure he kept the areas clean. He even took his shoes off so it wouldn't scratch up my floors. He is very professional, friendly and excellent at his job. I definitely will be calling again for his help. Thanks again Mike"

"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

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.
