"Sam and his team were awesome. They gave me quotes and important information in a timely manner and never rushed me on decision making. I hired them to paint the skirt of my house, my front door, and stain some shutters and everything came out beautifully. I will be hiring them for future projects."

"Steve worked on my lakehouse after the Caddo Lake flood. This was a big project that included new kitchen cabinets and counter tops, relocating hot water heater and toilet, replacing shower, installing new windows and doors, installing new skirting around the house. Steve had done some carpentry work for me previously and I was pleased with it. For this job, he gave me a price and said he could do everything: carpentry, electrical, plumbing. He worked from June – August 2016. He started out good, but as time progressed, his work slowed down and the finish out deteriorated. The most serious problem I did not discover until January 2017 when the termite inspector told me there was a leak under the house at the main plumbing connection to the sewer line. My plumber found that the connection to the main line was deteriorated and held together with foil tape. He also found that the drain from the hot water heater pan (1” pvc) was connected to the ¾” pvc from the AC drain with only foil tape, and was going uphill. A leak from the hot water heater would have backed up into the pan and eventually over flowed. Why didn’t Steve tell me the connection to the main line was deteriorated and needed to be repaired? Why did he use foil tape to do anything with the plumbing? These two repairs cost me $1025. Had I known about the main line problem when Steve was doing the work, it could have been repaired/replaced for less cost at that time. The other problems: -- The kitchen cabinets were stained and one coat of polyurethane applied. They were sanded and nothing else happened until the final week. He and his brother then “finished” the cabinets using Liquid Gold. That was their final finish! It cost $600 to have the cabinets cleaned to remove the Liquid Gold, sanded and two coats of polyurethane applied. Additionally, trim was not used consistently down the long sides of the cabinets at the wall or at the base. The painter I hired added the trim that was missing. -- The insulated windows were installed and there were gaps on the exterior ranging from about ½” to 1” between the metal frame of the window and the wood trim of the opening. It looked horrible and provided easy access for bugs, spiders, water, etc. I pointed this out to Steve, but he had no solution. That was just the way the windows went in. After he left, I hired a carpenter to install additional trim around the exterior of the windows and to add additional trim pieces to some of the interior windows to cover gaps there. This cost $210. -- The electrical was a big problem. Steve installed a ceiling light/fan combination in the bathroom ceiling. The wall switches were to work independently. He could not get that to happen. The strip LED lights used in the kitchen were not installed/wired safely. At this point, I hired an electrician to re-do what Steve had already done. I removed the other electrical projects from Steve’s list and the electrician finished that list. This cost $1100. -- The old sink was re-used, but was not set properly into the kitchen cabinet and therefore leaked water between the sink and the cabinet. The faucet also leaked. Only a small bead of silicone was used to seal the sink to the cabinet. I hired a plumber to re-install the sink and faucet. This cost $270. The above are the major problems with this project. The job was too big and required more skill than Steve had. He indicated he could do it all, but in reality he could not. His carpentry skills are fine, but not his plumbing or electrical skills, nor his finish out of big jobs. Additionally, he does not communicate about problems he encounters during the project so they can be resolved while the project is in process."

"Excellent. Honest and quick work. Mr. King was able to get someone out on short notice, to shim/shiv the piers. They performed a full scale cleanup last year, and I will only use Basement kings for any of my crawlspace work. Best in Texas!"

"I was assisting with some electrical home repairs where this company was also performing painting services. They were very professional and very friendly, which made working with them very pleasant and easy. They were very good about sticking to the time frames they quoted, even when their were budget difficulties. They were more than willing to work with the customer on costs, even during their clean up phases. They also cleaned up their work spaces before it became a big mess, which saved me the hassle of cleaning up after previous contractors when I was doing my own electrical installations. I highly recommend this company, based on their professionalism, friendliness and how well kept they maintained their workspace areas."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

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. 

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.
