Customers say: Quality work

"Curtis Kuhn has created several custom furniture pieces for me (several are pictured in the pictures section of his company on Angie's List), including an entry way table, a shelf, a coffee table, and a cedar shoe shelf for our closet. His work is great, and he can deliver (and draw up) what you are describing from your head and inspiration photos. He's awesome...hope he doesn't retire before all my projects are done. :)"

"Carlos and his team did an amazing job building out my new fence and the new patio cover, as well as laying a concrete slab for the patio. Would highly recommend them. From his work, he's gotten two other jobs in the neighborhood."

"Marcelino Lopez built beautiful 14’ customer cabinets and shelves in our den. He also custom built floor to ceiling cabinets on the garage with a work bench. We told him what we wanted and he made some great suggestions we hadn’t even thought about. He emailed us his CAD drawings and they were great, very detailed. He’s s a perfectionist, his work is high quality, no corners cut, and his prices are very reasonable. He’s always on time and cleans up when he’s through for the day. He has been building cabinets for 30 years, I would highly recommend him and would hire him again! Beautiful work, you won’t be sorry you hired him!"

"It went very well. The serviceman showed up on time and efficiently went about his work. Afterwards, he was gracious in getting on top of the garage again to clean a portion of the house siding that was difficult to get to, in order to get a few difficult to reach spots. We are very pleased with the work as all of the mold has been cleared away.."

"I scheduled the crew from Handyjoe to assemble a 3 seat patio swing. There were a lot of parts for this. The crew arrived on time and went right to work. They had a backpack with all the tools needed for this type of project. They stayed with the job until the swing was completely assembled and located on the patio where we wanted it. The crew was courteous and the price was reasonable for this type of project. I was very pleased with the outcome."

"Absolute top quality professionalism from beginning to end. We had Urban Legend Woodworking install a library wall, with ladder, in our home office. It is absolutely incredible craftsmanship. When we have another carpentry project that we need done in our home, I would not hesitate for one second to have Urban Legend Woodworking be my first and only call. Thank you!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.
