If you looking for good quality, timely work without having to pay for the expensive big company or contractor pricing, you have found the guy. I have been in the construction field for 17 years with a 2 year break working as a firefighter/EMT. Some examples of the services I offer are porch/deck building and repair, underpinning, custom shutters, metal roofing, small metal buildings/shops, sheds, add ons, remodeling, siding, handicap ramps, dirt work, driveway repair, rustic barn tin ceilings/panels, pipe fences, welding services. If there is something you cant do chances are I can. 35 year old, christain, family man, father of 2.

We take great pride in our experience, expertise, quality, and customer service that we provide to meet the consumer's needs. It is our mission to provide excellent workmanship and complete customer satisfaction from start to completion of a project. In order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, we take great care to work and communicate with every customer in a professional manner. Our reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"Ari promised us to complete our project (which included kitchen, guest bath, master bath, laundry room and deck) in 6 weeks. They were done early and we're very pleased with the results. The crew was here almost every day, working on the project. We had a major water issue that soaked the carpet in the master bedroom and Ari was quick to assure us they would replace the flooring in the bedroom. Any issues they encountered were taken care of with no additional cost over what we were quoted up front. Cabinets and countertops are GORGEOUS! Very, very pleased with the custom pantry they had built for my kitchen! Our only negative was the language issue as most of the crew didn't speak English. But we were able to communicate well enough to accomplish what was needed. We would use Finecraft again if we do any further remodeling. Pictures attached. "

With over 17 years of experience serving the Henderson county and surrounding area, Roden's Painting is your solution for all your house and commercial painting needs. We take great pride in our extreme professionalism, timeliness and superior customer service on every job. We make sure to develop a lasting relationship so that the next time service is needed there will be no question on who to call. Satisfaction guaranteed!

"I hired Rodens painting to hang drywall, texture, install crown molding, base molding, and paint my house after a water pipe burst during the February 2021 freeze. We had an agreement for $25,900 in total work. I paid him $24,900 before he abandoned the job and have not heard from him since. He requires payment constantly because he does not have the capital to buy materials before beginning any part of the job. Work began on 10/21/2021 and the last check given to him was on 3/31/2022. He did not have much oversight with his employees during this time and as a result there was great variation in all the aspects of the work. Eventually he just abandoned the job in July 2022 after he stopped taking my calls. I gave up on him as I was disgusted with the quality of his work and decided to take a loss and have another contractor finish the work for an additional $8000. Problems were all over the scope of their work. There were visible drywall seams followed by terrible spray texturing of the walls which varied from very thick in some areas and normal in other areas (sometimes on the same stretch of wall). His employees did mediocre work with the crown molding. I though painting would be an easy process for his crew but they failed in that aspect as well. There were several walls that were not primed prior to being painted and this resulted in a very splotchy texture which looked terrible. They failed to properly cover some furniture with drop cloths and this resulted in primer being sprayed onto all different areas as well as on the furniture. Towards the end of the project, outlets were not even covered and spray texture and paint were applied directly over them. They did not even take the time to put painters tape over the outlets! Then, to top it off, he purchased paint from several different companies resulting in various shades of grey all over the house. There were at least 3 different paint brands used. Overall, I was very disappointed in almost every aspect of his work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

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.

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.
