"I was happy to find that Greg and the team really were interested in doing the job right and providing quality work. It was exactly what I was looking for. Him and the team paid very close attention to the details unlike our previous contractor. Greg and the guys were wonderful and trustworthy. In addition, our projects required specialized trades in and Greg knew exactly who to call."

"As a business owner, finding a contractor who understands commercial remodeling and budgeting is crucial. Tell Projects added a bathroom in our warehouse with permitting and inspections. They handled it quickly and professionally and were good with changes we wanted to make or needed throughout the project."

"Rating in “Stars” is hardly appreciative enough. Hickory “knocked it out of the park” regarding service and quality. All owing to the owner, Matt Salam and his professional work ethics. He deserves a “Moon” rating!! I was in Commercial Real Estate 43 years, so I know from where I speak. One of the keys to success is having a specialist in each field required for the job. This is what Matt does. I had a tub to shower conversion. That endeavor received four (4) specialists, plus the Owner of Hickory, Matt; who is not a salesman, but an architect and designer, which turns out to be extremely helpful. Everyday I was continually amazed at Matt. I am 76 and in all my professional career, I have worked with many contractors. Never had one show up “every day”, until Hickory ‘s owner, Matt Salam. Matt on many days was here all day to “watch” and be sure of “perfection.” Anybody will most definitely benefit from his attitude of “ must be right”. I could go into detail regarding my project, but instead I will give Matt permission to give out my number to any very serious customer who would like to call me for an in depth reference."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

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.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.
