"Cory did 3.5 days solid of MASTER carpentry work on my home: replacing damaged wood, siding, rebuilding soffits, rebuilding trim, etc. His workmanship is unparalleled- wonderful attention to detail and very creative in problem solving some troublesome outside areas of my older home. Heâ s not afraid of working at heights- comes fully prepared with a modern array of tools. He is excellent at communication from start to finish. I couldnâ t be happier with his services!!! Thanks Cory!!"

"Mike Griffin and his team do great work - a few years ago we had them build a garden gate and gazebo, working from our design ideas and taking it to an artistic level - we still get compliments on the gate with its unique grille design! This latest job was mostly repair of an older deck including a new cover, a water-damaged patio enclosure and replacing a section of fence. So, a diverse set of building repair skills/techniques, all handled by Mike's crew in one job. John's masonry repair on the patio post is excellent, for example. Mike is very thoughtful and creative about problem-solving with older homes that have been remodeled several times. He assessed some roof damage as well and gave me advice on when it should be replaced."

"Russell was able to come look at my job within a day, discussed repair options with me and the cost was very reasonable. Got my shed fixed, but also, he helped me line up a few screws on stairs I was assembling, carried the heavy stairs to the shed and cut up the old ones for me. Great guy, super helpful and responsive!"

"Joseph and team did a great job on re-building my deck, the work quality was excellent. Fantastic job on both the carpentry and the tile work on the out door kitchen/grill. The price was reasonable, great communication and a genuinely good group of people to work with. I would definitely hire them for other remodeling jobs and recommend this company."

"In addition to the roof repair, AA reinstalled 2 lightning rods on the roof. They also replaced rotted wood on three dormers and the hips on the upper balcony with Hardi-plank and painted them. Installed some new flashing as well. When I requested a quote, David responded quickly and was right on time for the first visit. Luis headed up the work and he and his crew were professional and fast. I would (will) hire these guys in a minute,"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
