"TX Thunderbolt Fences did an amazing job on our fence, we also had them install a carport. Very high quality craftsmanship and they started the job and completed in a very timely manner. I would highly recommend Carlos to build your fence or carport."

"I chose Marcelino because of all the high ratings he received for his work. He lived up to the praise in both his work and treatment of me as a customer. His prices are very reasonable, he and his crew are on time and very professional. He not only treated me with patience and friendliness, but his work was excellent. In fact, he helped me figure out what I needed and did great designs for the work. One other thing that was very important to me is that other companies I quoted would have limits on what they did. So when I had specialized needs or little requests, they would say, "We don't do that." But Marcelino would do it. He did everything I needed, even small specialized things, and all completely professional. He went above and beyond. I hired him three times. First for my bedroom closet and office credenza. Then for a living room credenza, bathroom cabinets, kitchen roll-out cabinets and laundry room build out. Now, he is going to do my garage. I wouldn't use anyone else."

"Hector was absolutely amazing from our first contact. I explained what we needed and why! (A story behind our privacy fence panels from a crazy neighbor lol) and he and his amazing crew knocked it out of the park! My husband and I have already asked for quotes on our future projects. We have truly found an amazing company to complete those. The crew's attention to details and the clean up they did was so professional and respectful. They were willing to haul off the trash but when we said absolutely not....drop it in our trash bins....we got this, they asked "are you sure, we don't mind". It was a no brainer. This company is absolutely great and I encourage anyone to hire these guys for your projects. Thank you Hector and the crew...we are forever grateful."

"He turned a formal living room into a cozy office by adding french doors and matching existing trim and paint to look like it was built with the house. Very happy with the job done and would hire again!"

"I cannot begin to exclaim more passionately how phenomenal my experience with Gunter Gables Custom cabinetry ended up being! They helped me create, what I am fully convinced is, the most unique kitchen island on the face of this earth. It has become the envy of all of my friends. People who understand the ingenuity and skill that goes into building custom cabinetry like this are able to fully appreciate what a masterpiece Mike and Cameron crafted for me. They were an absolute treasure to work with the entire time. From the moment Mike showed up to quote the project, I could sense that I was dealing with a person who had an incredible attention of detail; which was going to be necessary in the person I hired for this project; every square inch of this island included some kind of specific detail. They took such care to make certain that everything came out exactly to my liking. If you would like to see a video tour of the island, I would encourage you to hop over to YouTube at the link here: https://youtu.be/IZh7k-XIHss?si=Gvq4f-zlxFuN4cBr. I have prepared a video to share with my friends that will be meaningful to anyone who is considering hiring Gunter Gables for their next project. I think you will see that I am convinced there is no more masterful craftsmen in the Dallas Fort Worth area than Gunter Gables Cabinetry! I will be using them for all my future creations and I would encourage you to do the same!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

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.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.
