"We hired Charles to put an addition on our house after careful consideration. Charles was a consummate professional throughout the entire process. From drawing up plans to walking us through the project weekly keeping us apprised to what was happening and when. The quality of work is without question the best we have ever seen, and we have built several homes. We will be building a new home next year and will definitely be contracting with Charles and his team! Charles is an absolute must hire!"
"I bought a old house that for whatever reason, did not have a pantry door I'm not into open shelving so for 3 months I shopped around to see if I could get a door for the pantry. After going to both Home Improvement companies and a custom door retailer, I learned because of the dimensions of the doorway (narrower than the standard) this was going to be a huge challenge. I did not want to remove my door jamb which was in great shape to hang a door. I called KW company early one morning and by noon Kristin was at my door. She looked at the pantry and told me she could build one. And she did exactly that the very next day! She took a piece of thinner piece of wood and cut it to fit perfectly) without taking off my door frame. She didn't charge me a arm and leg to do it. I love my door and show everyone who comes over. I tell them a Woman built this! Prices are reasonable and they are professional. I will call them for my next project."
"Here is why I highly recommend them:: Amazing Quality: The craftsmanship on the pergola is beautiful, sturdy, and exactly what I wanted. Super Fast: They started promptly and finished the project much quicker than I anticipated without cutting any corners. Great Pricing: The quote was incredibly fair and competitive. I received excellent value for the high quality of work delivered.If you need outdoor carpentry or a new pergola, do not hesitate to hire them. I will definitely use their services again for future projects!"

"Hired Finch Design Group to build a series of trellises along my fence for privacy. Ted was prompt on doing the design and starting the job. The trellis project turned out great. The trellises are very well done and look really good. They do everything in their shop and bring it all ready to be installed. Installation and planting of vines took only 2 days. The crew was amazing! They did everything with care and professionalism, they cleaned and put everything back in its place, and I also like how they all wear blue shirts with the company's logo ð Thank you Finch Design Group for a job well done!!"

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.
The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
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.
You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.
Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.
